Cryogenic Catastrophes - Tales From the Internet

Wasn’t Walt Disney super anti semitic

Chung.

liquidfied

Who gets unfrozen on the 55th anniversary.. be at least a hundred

Video starts at 9 minutes

Well a wig maker messing with dead bodies back in the day specially is very common that's how they wigs . From dead people

What a wonderfully insane story ❤

”Freezing people is not easy” 🤣😂🤣😂🤣😂🤣😂🤣

My bet is that they will at some point shift to copy the mind to computers cyberpunk2077 style

Could you imagine that after you die in order to cross-over fully your "soul" must be totally detached from your body and you're just in constant limbo because you were one the people who thought freezing sounded good. Lol

I would like to see the video about the Funeral Home that Sold D-, seems a nice vid

That video unlocked a super deep memory for me. When i was very little (6-8 years old) my parents told me that Walt froze himself to "skip to the future" xD. To this day i have believed in this urban legend

they did testing it and humans are to big to freeze they can it with hamsters but not humans the body is to big to freeze it instantly

Creemated.

Dismal practice. Everyone wants to be God, these days, and the absurdity of this, it is they don’t believe in God, just in a lesser god. Themselves…

I remember my dad telling me a story about my Grandfather, and how when he was a kid, his family would sometimes spend the winter at a farm in Alberta, Canada owned by my Grandpas Uncle, Jack. Anyways, the winters up their were brutal. They would have a rope running from the house to the barn so that you didn't get lost in the 3-foot visibility caused by the snow. One fateful winter, uncle jack would pass away. Now you can't exactly dig a six-foot deep hole in the rock solid, snow covered ground in the middle of January. So they wrapped him up in a old carpet, and stuck him in the hay loft in the barn, where he lay frozen until spring, when they buried him at the family cemetery, where he lies to this day. I have heard that this was pretty common back in the day for anyone who died in the winter in Alberta or any other place of a similarly northern latitude. RIP Great-Great Uncle Jack.

isnt it hard enough to bring dead back ti life? no lets just also ruin the cellular structure.

Walt Disney is rolling in his cryo tube at what his legacy has become

Accidently cracked his head 10 times 😂oh man

Is this why they named that movie Frozen?! 😂imagine an inside joke with them going on 😂😂😂

The goldfish story made me sad. We had a goldfish Goldie that was the size of a large hamster and she would let us pet her belly. She exploded😢

When I was a kid we used to have goldfish in a bathtub outside in Montana (white trash af i know). Whenever it would freeze the goldfish would be frozen solid and then slowly thaw out and they'd be totally fine. I still don't understand how.

“Yeah I can cryogenically freeze ya, for the right price. No funny business. 400 years with a constant power supply. Of course you can trust me, I’m a car salesman!”

This is so bizarre, whenyou die the the thing that is you the soul leaves this fleshy rental suit so what good is it in freezing the flesh the thing that powered it has already gone.

When they figure out how to bring these rich peoples heads back, they’ll need bodies. Who do you think will be the donors? Probably us. Good thing my body is too disabled to be of any value 😂. It’s going to be like that movie “get out”. Rich old people in a basement will be putting people’s brains in new bodies.

Life starts once the soul enters the body, otherwise it remains a functioning body of cells making up organs, with electrical brain activity. Clinical death = brain & heart stops working, biological death = decomposition, True death = When soul leaves the body. Those who are revived after clinical death had their souls momentarily leave their bodies then returned. Even if a new body & brain can be made in future or repaired - none of these dead bodies will ever be alive again like those who think of Robocop.

Also got to realize Snopes is totally full of crap now, there was a time when that site was trustible not to distribute disinformation and propaganda but that was the 90's and early 2000s

My ex husbands grandma, Mae (Junod) Ettinger was Robert Ettingers ( the father of cryonics) 2nd wife. When she was dying ( in 2000 ) my mother in law Bonnie went to Arizona (where her mother resided with husband Robert ) to be with Mae and as she died they packed her in ice to prepare the body for cryopreserving. Both Ettingers 1st and second wife are cryopreserved in Clinton twp, Mi. We use to joke back then who Robert would be married to, Mae or his first wife when they were brought back. 🤔😊

If you cite snopes in any way you lose all credibility from that point on.

The problem with cryogenic suspension (I worked with cryogenic gases) is that the cell membranes form ice crystals during freezing causing osmotic rupture and intracellular ice formation and destruction. The "cell deaths" are the reason you cannot freeze a living human, nor can you reasonably expect despite expert care that there will be any cells capable of being revived in a dead person. The actual idea is to sufficiently preserve enough DNA and tissues to perhaps "clone" an individual when the technology advances. However, even if you somehow can clone the individual, you cannot clone his/her memories. So what good is it? Now if there was a technology the coincided with this like somehow making a "snapshot" of the human brain, it might be possible. But we are not even close to that capability.

This is where AI and the evolution of androids may come into play. AI might figure a way to snapshot a brain and android technology might let an organic body be "replaced". But the ethical and moral dilemmas of such a technology will never allow it to go mainstream. We are born, we grow up, we learn, we live, we grow old, and we die. That is the circle of life for humanity as a whole. To meddle with that may open a Second Pandora's Box that we may never recover from. So the final verdict? Better to one day in the far future let some incredibly advanced technology revive you from a DNA sample in either your ashes, or your skeleton if you are not cremated. Basically take samples from graves.

not sure why anyone ever thought freezing corpses was somehow gonna bring em back

hey donut LOL

I think it's impossible today but a few more decades

Soooo if your profession is wig maker this implies you have no hope of comprehending metal fabrication or material sciences?

Remember when people could have more than one interest in life and that you didn’t need a degree, you just had to know how to do something to do something.

"No ur rong walt disney is frozen"

I was going to watch this, then I remembered you're an asshole to Maddox so sorry

Futurama

I wonder if thats why they did mummies?

Now this is my kind of Jeopardy topic!

An old emergency medical responder saying ive been told is " They're not dead till they've warm 'n dead." Because there are some cases of people dying from exposure being somewhat frozen, to have their heart start beating again after being brought to shelter.

"Cryogenic Catastrophe" with their new hit "Mortal Liquefaction"

Coming to a Metal album near you.

Your mug reminds me of a blue prime bottle

In 1991 my band had a song called "Freeze Your Head".
That's all.

In Robert Heinleins "Future History" novels, "corpsicles" or people who were cryogenically frozen, are revived only to be basically slaves because they didn't have the foresight to have any way to live after revival and most of them are just left frozen in abandoned facilities.

I don't understand the thought process.

Imagine humans 300 years from now having the ability to bring back some frozen senior citizen from 3 centuries ago....

Why tf would you bother?

Nobody 300 years from now is going to be concerned with bringing your diseased dead ass back to lifr.

Back when I was a high schooler in the 90's I was digging a pool with my best friend in my backyard and found a guy frozen in a huge block of ice. We thawed him out with a bunch of space heaters and he was just fine. He was a handfull at first and we had to teach him how to behave in the modern world because as it turns out he was a caveman, but it all worked out and he became our best friend of all time. He's doing good to this day I guess it's just a matter of "the right place at the right time" and all of the elements just lining up right.

We are truly a twisted race
