• A company called Tomorrow Biostasis is focusing on human cryopreservation in the hopes it can eventually reverse death.
• The new Berlin startup has already preserved the bodies of about 10 deceased humans.
• Liquid nitrogen is the main ingredient used to ensure cryopreservation.

The waiting list for Tomorrow Biostasis, a cryopreservation startup based in Germany, is in the hundreds. And the company already has about 10 cases with some bodies preserved in a lab. What comes next is the real issue.
According to a report from Tech.Eu, the company’s “standby ambulance” has already been busy, with cofounder Emil Kendziorra working to launch Europe’s first cryogenics company (there are already a handful of them in the United States). Kendziorra’s goal: As soon as somebody dies, Tomorrow Biostasis immediately responds to preserve the person’s body and/or brain in a state of stasis. Then, once future advances materialize, the company will treat and reverse the person’s original cause of death and bring them back from the dead to enjoy a life extension.
That’s the plan, anyway.

• Is Death Real?

Kendziorra says his company has “about 10 people” already cryopreserved for training purposes and hundreds more on the waiting list. The company’s typical clientele are 36 years old on average and tend to work in tech, which is perhaps the least surprising development of all. A few of these people just want their brain preserved, thinking their future selves may prefer a new 3D-printed body ... or maybe not even a body at all.
When the bodies get transported to Rafz, Switzerland for long-term storage at the European Biostasis Foundation—the process is technically considered a scientific body donation, to make it legal—they get cooled to -196 degrees Celsius and placed inside an insulated tank with liquid nitrogen to lock in the preservation.
Of course, waiting for medical advancement to progress to the point it can reverse what caused your death isn’t the only hurdle in this entire cryopreservation concept. There’s still the small issue of nobody knowing how to actually revive a dead cryopreserved human. Sure, they can freeze the brain to preserve cells and tissues, but bringing a previously dead brain back to life with regular function and memories isn’t quite a thing in our world—yet.

And those are just the big questions. There are also plenty of smaller issues, such as who makes the decision on the revival, because, well, you can’t freeze up on the right timing.

If the body is intact and whatever was the cause of death was replaced/removed, wouldn't getting the heart beating again be enough to bring someone back to life ?

Highly doubt it. I believe in existence of soul. Even if it doesn't exists, i still dont think its possible.

 

[InceldianWarrior]

I believe in existence of soul.

Maybe the soul stays in the body or waits to return to it if you're destined to be revived.

aw hell nah let me die

Junk science.

OP, don't take these news seriously. Cryopreservation exists for decades, yet none has been revived.

I wonder if this isn't the greatest scam ever, since the person that technically would sue the company in case of a failure is literally fucking dead and in the hands of the company.

There is a big glaring question how they will prevent mutations and telomere shortening, and that is just a start.

What if you become crippled or retarded after? Your brain had no oxygen, and most cels had died already

 

[AsiaCel]

I know who they will revive

 

[der_komische]

problem is the soviets threw hitlers ashes in the elbe river so we'd have to search the entire baltic sea for his ashes and stick them together with glue maybe we can revive him with this technology and some donation organs

Junk science.

If I am not mistaken they swap your blood with antifreeze fluid... and that destroys your various tissues to some degree. There is no known way to reverse liquid, so in practice you are doing wishful thinking two times:

You are hoping that medical advances can reanimate you and cure your preexisting condition.
And you are also hoping that the very same advances can repair your fucked up body.

It's honestly a gamble and one with very poor chances. We don't know how far progress will go and how far it can go, because there is a limit to everything. But I guess that it's another novelty for rich people, but most likely they're wasting their money.
