That idea just petrifies me to death.

Ending up as some sickly, aging, miserable, quadripeligic blob until the heat death of the universe in 10^100 years.

That's why quantum immortality is so bad. Your body is decaying, but you're still alive.

If I tell you a car made today is going to be on the road in 100 years, do you think it is more likely that someone took good care of and renovated, or that it is a rusty bucket of bolts that by some miracle is still able to function?

SO What's the significance of the Quantum Suicide Thought Experiment? It's ultimately about consciousness, right? The nature of personal ID & its relationship to the infinite infinity? what differentiates one me from another? It shows MWI & understanding consciousness as emergent are not compatible ? TELL ME

>disprove unproven subject

You are retarded, but ok.
Nothing is infinite, life is short. Have you seen someone be 500 years and they just haven't died in your universe? No? Then shut the fuck up. It's a weird way of cope, and religion is more logical than that popsci bullshit.
This being discussed over and over proves that this is a board for retards wanting to feel smart by regurgitating the one thing they understand (a thing that has no base in reality and isn't at all proven).

Well, there's really only one way to test that theory anon.
Try to kill yourself and see if any of your attempts work.
I'm not even kidding, that's literally the only way to test quantum immortality.

quantum immorality doesnt exist. there are no other dimensions anymore. just because you go to a bar and then just go hoe does not mean that another you in another dimension got drunk and fucked a bar tranny and still another you got wasted and jacked off in the alley behind the bar while thinking of one of the back street boys while you muttered i bet you ate corn today and still another you got black out drunk and rented a windowless van and is waiting for kids to go to school so he can offer candy but give them penis...

no there is but this world my dim witted friend stop day dreaming of things that dont exist and put down the bottle

Asserting that the state of the cat is dependent on human observation is emblematic of the self-important individualistic bullshit that's been ruining society for the better part of the last 100 years.

Unironically read the Wikipedia article on the subject. It was meant as a jab that pointed out the absurdity of quantum mechanics, it's supposed to be impossible.

If you die in 10^100 years, it’s basically de facto immortality.

I think he’s arguing that if we’re alive in thousands of years, it’s more likely we’d have maintained our health the whole time, rather than constantly being sick and barely avoiding death.

That’s actually a pretty bad argument against quantum immortality. The QI argument is basically that we’d only be alive forever in some very small fraction of universes, but those are the only universes we can “experience”, since we can’t “experience” death. It probably would be virtually certain that this universe wouldn’t have a really old person.

You won't be the one to experience it. The compounding probabilities of dying from whatever at any second or fraction of a second, rolled against continually, will definitely catch up to you.

It would be some version of you that lives forever.

If it’s not you who lives forever, than who would it be?

No, you wouldn’t.

It’s scientifically possible to live forever, and thus it would have to happen under MWI.

But it’s not scientifically possible for a person to become a silver surfer type Adonis.

Go out of my way finding the paper you want disproven?
If you really needed help you'd have linked it, or at least given the title of it but you only have some download-2.jpg with the only clue pointing to you needing to be handheld through the entire process.
