The Russians arguably got to #cryonics first, at least in fiction. Aleksandr Beliaev's novel "Professor Dowell's Head" (Голова профессора Доуэля, 1937) involves a brilliant scientist, a demented acolyte, a horrified research assistant, and Paris in the 1920s. Still a vintage sci-fi classic.

Dr Kennedy must contend with kooky characters like Ada Wong, an undercover medical insurance agent, Alex Wesker, a cryonics enthusiast, and Miranda, an aromatherapist treating patients with green and yellow herbs.

For everyone who does not want to die, Nectome is having a sale. This company is, in my view, the most scientifically plausible cryonics company.

NEW today! Wes Craven's 'Chiller' asks the question: what happens when a previously good-natured corporate exec is revived from cryonic suspension? Hint: he becomes a cold-blooded psychopath.
Tubular Terrors: Wes Craven’s ‘Chiller’
By K.E. Roberts An engraving with the words “They Shall See Tomorrow” hangs outside the cryonics facility at the beginning of Wes Craven’s Chiller (1985), probably the most damning treatment of the…

#DidYouKnow that we’re running a makeshift cryonics lab in Tripley Hall? Donate millions to campus and we’ll stash you in one of our spare freezers until we can either resurrect you or the power goes out and your body accidentally thaws out. The Ledger calls it “Horrifying.”

Walt Disney Was Not Cryogenically Frozen. The Story Started as a Joke and Never Stopped.
Walt Disney died on December 15, 1966. He was cremated two days later. The first human ever cryonically preserved was James Bedford, on January 12, 1967, twenty-eight days after Disney was already ash. The story has no source, no evidence, and is physically impossible given the timeline. It has survived for nearly sixty years anyway.

Ray Kurzweil has paid to have his body frozen when he dies. He's also building a digital copy of his own mind, the way he already built one of his father.
Freeze the body. Copy the mind. Bring them back together.

Ray Kurzweil has a backup plan. Mind uploading, cryonics and the problem of other minds: if a perfect copy of you woke up, could it ever know it was you?

Cryonics' real hurdle isn't freezing; it's vitrification. To avoid ice crystals shredding cells, we turn organs into solid glass. Biology meets physics!
