    Why would future people want to unfreeze past people ? ...

    What would be the point in reviving a baseball player from the past ?
    In fact what would be the point in reviving anyone from the past ?
    They wouldn't be able to offer anything of value. Any knowledge
    they had would be long out of date and worthless. Plus, the future
    might be crowded so why add worthless people ? Makes no sense.
    These people who freeze themselves are just a bunch of egocentrics
    who think they're worth saving. They're not.

    The process of "cryopreservation" means a body or even just the head is frozen in liquid nitrogen which can preserve the body for thousands, if not millions of years, in hope of future revival

    I think it makes a lot of sense -- in fact, I have a long list of people who should go freeze themselves.

      Adds a new meaning to Go F yourself although just as difficult.

        Probably freezer-burnt too.

        But if they get it to work somehow on the 100th, just think about the 99.

        Also the very idea of reanimating frozen flesh challenges the concept of an afterlife, thereby posing a mortal threat to many who make their living in the religion biz.

          Come now, many of us would jump for joy at being able to meet a Civil War veteran, 200 years from now...
          And if the process doesn't work.....?

            Great, more people. No, I guess it's the same amount. Sort of.
