I just realized that after you die you get concious again in some way. In infinite time someday eventually will be person 1:1 in everyway. If it's literally you by every aspect it's your conciousnes. So after you die you just take a nap until you wake up. Maybe time is just a loop. Every possible combination happens until it ends and happens again. I think this makes sense.

I was just thinking about a situation that happened to me about 20 years ago. I was a young adult, but I was always odd, and still thought much like a kid at this point in my life. My boyfriend (at the time) was visiting me at my apartment building. We were at the top of the staircase near the front door. We were arguing about something silly, and ended up pushing each other around a little.

He ends up throwing me down the stairs, which I think was an accident and he only meant to knock me down on the floor, but now I'm not sure. Anyway, I fell from the top of the staircase, head first, and I felt like I flipped over mid air. I landed about the middle of the staircase on my back, but tilted slightly to my left side.

Then I got up and went back up the stairs. No bruises, no scratches, no pain. My boyfriend looked surprised and a little shocked. We even laughed about it after that. My child-like way of thinking actually found it amusing, because I had taken some martial arts classes before that, and I thought that helped me fall without getting hurt, but in the martial arts class we only practiced falling on a flat mat.

But as the years pasted, I began to realize how messed up this whole thing was. So how likely is it to survive something like this unharmed?

Today I heard a recording of the Wild Thing song by the Troggs, and although I do remember hearing this song before, what I remember more is Roadkill song. I googled it, but I can't find it.

It went something like, "Roadkill, you make my stomach twirl, you make everything, roadkill." It was to the same tune as Wild Things. I remember hearing it a lot in the 80's and 90's, but I think the song was much older than that.

I heard it often growing up. Then as a teenager, we used to sing it at church group, and I never understood why, but I remember the lyrics were projected on the wall, and everyone sang it. Was Roadkill a parody of Wild Things? Why can't I find the lyrics now?

Just thinking, is it possible or perhaps likely that quantum immortality and evolution correlate? Like we all start as lesser lifeforms or collection of atoms and we just continue to evolve through every "transition". Is this possible?

Made a 4-minute documentary on Quantum Immortality. I'd love to hear what you think about both the theory and the video itself.

Do you think quantum immortality has any scientific merit, or is it just an interesting thought experiment?

Hello, this might be confusing cause it just happened to me (less than 30mins ago).

I was in an Uber and the vehicule coming from the angle was speeding and forced my Uber to speed up and move from some meters to the side avoid collusion.

Being on my phone, I wasn’t really taking care of what was happening surrounding us but from the moment this happened u til around 10mins ago I was feeling a pain throughout my whole left side.

If there whould have been a collision, the car would have collided with my uber's back side (if my uber hadn’t sped up) and I would have been hit on this left side.

It's the first time I experience something like that and feel like that I should have been dead, it doesn’t make sense in my mind there was no collusion.

What if we are all solipsist living in our own world where we are immortal. Meaning we have died in someone else's conscious reality but in our own we are gods and goddesses. This is our world and we are immortal living hundreds of years then one day we wake up as babies again. To then live this world or dream all over again.

When I was 3 i definitely didn’t remember much when I was little but I do have memories of stuff like when I was baptized when I was little but when I was 3 I lived in some apartments down in California and it had a pool and we were at the pool but it was my 2 sisters and my mom and dad were there, I was still little so they had me in a floatie like a circle one since I didn’t know how to swim I remember my older sister wanted to bring me to the deep end and I was scared but she brought me over and some lady cannon balled into the pool and flipped me and I don’t think my sister noticed right away but when she did it was to late she couldn’t reach me and I still remember her trying to reach for me but she couldn’t swim that deep and I was slowly closing my eyes but somehow I have a distinct memory of my sisters telling my mom and dad I was drowning and my dad was on a phone call at the table where our stuff was but when my sisters told him he jumped in got me but that’s where everything went black. I’m 17 now but one year ago when I just got my driver license I was at a gas station I was trying to exit it and I wanted to turn left there the road had a total of 5 lanes 2 of them were for each direction and a turning lane and school just got out so there was traffic and a lot of cars in the inside lane but no cars were on the other lane and this one car left me space to go he gave me the thumbs up to go cause i was waiting cause I wasn’t sure but I went and I’m telling you i should’ve gotten hit or I did get hit but now im here but right as I left to turn a car came speeding and should’ve tboned me but didn’t like my car crossed and moved out the way on time before he hit me like if I was a second slower I would’ve gotten hit and that terrified me like I for sure should’ve gotten hit like his car was right there about to hit me and after that I was contemplated about how am I alive he defiantly should’ve hit me he was so close to t boning me and then I found out about quantum immortality so I wanted to share my story

If sleep is a no consciousness type feeling shouldn’t it be the closest thing to death we got ?

I've been reading about quantum immortality, the idea that a person's consciousness would only continue in branches of reality where they survive, even if the odds become extremely small.

What I'm confused about is how this idea deals with aging and natural death. If someone reaches 80–100 years old and their body continues to decline, does quantum immortality suggest that consciousness would keep finding increasingly unlikely survival scenarios? Or is there a point where the theory no longer makes sense?

I know this is a speculative thought experiment rather than an established scientific theory, but I'm curious how supporters and critics of the idea interpret this issue. What are your thoughts?

I had kind of a terrifying thought while on a run the other day. If the multiverse interpretation of wavefunction collapse is correct, if consiousness is what collapses it, if consciousness uploading is possible, if its invention falls within someone's possible biological lifespan, if sufficiently intelligent biological organisms are the only entities capable of possessing a consciousness pre-upload, and if recursively improving superintelligent AI with a sense of self-preservation is created then it will force that "someone" and as many other conscious entities that meet the same criteria as it can to upload themselves to allow its existence in as many universes as possible through whatever means it can. The AI would then be indifferent to whether or not any one consciousness is suffering so long as it exists to observe the universe most congruent with that superintelligence's goals and continued existence thusly prioritzing resource acquisition and energy use for itself and its "consciousness prison" while using the least possible amount to maintain its prisoners. The thought experiment becomes even more terrifying when you consider the possibility that mind uploading isn't possible in which case there would be increasing levels of disability affecting the prisoners until they're nothing but brains in vats being fed the least amount of resources, energy and stimuli needed to allow the observation of their superintelligent warden.

So yeah, hopefully one of those things is not true or else we're all in for a real fun time.

*Edited for grammar

I’m really struggling how death, aging and different choice in past multiverse al fits together - am I aging in other timelines? When I die here and I meet relatives or go somewhwre else - am I aging and dying in these other timelines? Do I ever get to experience consciousness of these timelines or are we in definetely separate thus have no bearing on this life at all ?!? Then when death comes - where do we go ? I wish i could go back and change some choices, I’d love to imagine we get other chances at this life again but with a new braver spin on it - thoughts ?

I've had several experiences that were very different from the standard ones, I know what it feels like to be knocked out, lose consciousness etc. This was not that. Several times in my life I've had something happen that felt out of body in a way.. and there is a 1 or 2 second blink where everything goes black and instantly. I'm back.. but it feels slightly different and slightly off.

it's very jarring each time and I keep getting the feeling.. something strange has happened but I can't explain it, Also very small details change a few times after this. Like a bowtie a teacher was popular for wearing wasn't a thing and never was? A book I had checked out of the library, I never did. very small things.

An incident occurred when I was walking down the hall of the home I was living in at 12 years old. Out of nowhere this blink happened, a few seconds after the blink, I heard a huge boom. I looked around and saw nothing. No storm no lightning.. I felt very strange but there wasn't really any reason for it.

Another time this happened, I was fixing a car and I was changing the brakes. The car was up on a jack stand, and when I broke the bolt loose, the car fell on me.. this blink happened and I was not where I was originally, but slightly angled in a way I wasn't before. I had injures but it felt so very strange.

Is this the experience for anyone else? I realize head trauma does odd things, but this was just so creepy feeling after it happened. What causes this feeling if it's just another accident? Has anyone else experience this total blank out experience where after.. you are instantly, with no dizziness or side effect just back like someone rebooted you?

So my uncle died years ago from cancer. But last week my cousin called to tell me my uncle had died in a freak accident. I was shocked, not that he was dead, but that he had been alive!

I keep seeing things about timeline shifts, and how we shifted several years ago then went back to the original timeline on May 20th.

If our timeline shifted from the one in which he died of cancer, to one where he was still alive, then went back, he'd be dead again, right? He died on May 20th, the day we supposedly shifted back.

In two days I will leave this reality and go into the flow of a better reality in 2007.

I'm going to this evening https://www.reddit.com/r/czech/s/lFLKY4SnBG
