Who came up with quantum immortality?

Quantum immortality refers to the experience of surviving quantum suicide. The thought experiment was created by Max Tegmark. In the thought experiment, a person stands in front of a gun which fires if it detects a subatomic particle as having an upward spin, or does not fire if the gun detects a downward spin.

What is the theory of quantum immortality?

Quantum Immortality usually refers to, in a classical sense, a person who is “lucky” enough to survive in any incident in the world. Such a quantity of luckiness is even big enough to keep that person away from the aging of the human body. That is, in fact, when we say that one becomes “immortal”.

What is quantum immortality and how does it work?

Quantum immortality started as a thought experiment in the late 1980s, and later was more fully developed by physicist and cosmologist Max Tegmark. It suggests we may die many times throughout our lives. With each passing, our consciousness moves, slides, jumps or shifts to the closest timeline, very similar to the one where we died.

How has the concept of immortality changed over time?

Much of the change centers on shared memories of the past that do not match documented reality. There are forums online where these individual share their experiences.

What is Aquantum immortality?

Do macro objects have quantum properties?

As MIT astrophysicist Max Tegmark points out, macro objects display quantum properties of micro objects such as wavefunction, only from our perspective it’s nearly impossible to observe. The Quantum Immortality hypothesis also implies that from your subjective perspective you can expect to live the LONGEST POSSIBLE LIFESPAN.
