Cryopreservation (part 1) – a new industry

Tweet

I read a post a few days ago by @noni1959 about cryonics: and in reply I said that I had so many thoughts about this subject there was far too much to put in one response, so I promised to write some posts, in fact a whole series! I did actually write about this some time ago but when I looked into it I found that was back in 2015, so probably OK to revisit this subject. Some people don’t like the finality of death, so instead are choosing to have their bodies frozen in the hope that they can be revived in future, when perhaps whatever disease they are suffering from will be curable, or there may even be treatments to reverse the changes brought about by aging. So they are opting to have their bodies frozen for posterity, or if that’s too expensive then there is the option of just freezing their head. This all sounds a bit crazy but there is a whole industry building up around freezing the bodies of dead people. Have you ever considered this and been tempted by the idea?
