Can people really be frozen before death and then unfrozen.?

Question

I heard that Walt Disney was frozen and will be thawed for a tour of disneyland in the year 2055.
Is this possible?

Answer 1

1. "In February 2001, an amazing thing happened in Edmonton. Thirteen-month-old Erika Nordby, who had crawled outside in the middle of the night and froze, was brought back from being clinically dead.

The girl's toes were frozen together. Her internal body temperature was less than half what it should be. And when the girl finally got to a hospital after being outside an estimated three or four hours, it took a team of more than a dozen medical staff an hour and a half to get her heart beating again.

Three days later, Erika was suffering from severe frostbite, but there were no signs of major physical injury or the brain damage that's expected in someone whose oxygen supply to the brain has been cut off, especially for that amount of time." — CBC News July 16, 2004 "Indepth: Health Hypothermia (There's more)

2. "Karlee Kosolofski remains in the Guinness Book of World Records for surviving the lowest authenticated body temperature (14.16 C)."

Answer 2

Cryonics, the freezing of people near death so they can be thawed out later, is a reality. If you have a disease with no cure, you can be frozen until a cure is discovered. Theoretically, this is true, but while the science required to do the freezing is well known, the process of unfreezing and restoring consciousness has not been deveolped yet. The main problem is that the water in every cell crystalizes and ends up destroying the cell wall. Until they can freeze and thaw cells intact, the whole thing will never work.

Disney may be frozen, but his cells are already destroyed and there will never be a way to bring him back. In the future, unless Republican presidents continue to underfund science out of religious fear, who knows?

Wow - I want to know your news source - that is awesome. The answer to your question is yes. ONLY if they have been dead like 2 seconds and the paramedic team can revive them. Come on man - To be frozen and come back to life - not going to happen - when your dead - your dead. Espcially if you have been dead for more than 5 days - Only a miracle could bring you back - which would be an act of God - and then if you do return to life - you will be in your casket and then you could scare everyone that is at your funeral - man that would be funny - but the second time you die - no one will be at your funeral because they will think it will be a joke again - lol

Cryogenic freezing is already common for bacteria and other living cells, with great success. Unfortunately the body is infinitely more complex than these relatively simple organisms, and so there are some serious drawbacks to the process in human beings. There is still no proof whatsoever that we will ever possess the technology to bring those already frozen back to life.

Answer 5

Cryogenics aren't sophisticated enough yet to pull off that coup.
There are currently hundreds of people in cryostasis (the state of being frozen with the planned attempt of reanimation in the not too distant future)(The vast majority of them in Cali and Mass. Blue states if memory serves-isn't that ironic??). First off..if you have any religious beliefs then you'd have to extend them to figure in a new realm in addition to heaven, hell and purgatory there would have to be a "Cryo-waiting room" were souls would be warehoused until such time that reanimation either occurred and the soul had to be "sent back" to the body..or until it was deemed a failure and the soul could be shuffled off to Buffalo, so to speak.
Just from a religious prospective it presents us with nearly insurmountable obstacles unless, like, and as with, many other things, we are willing to re-write everything in order to forward our new" agendas. Personally..and I'm not a Bible thumper..just a Catholic with basic beliefs and values, the aforementioned is enough to flush the "Disney Project" in my book.

Answer 6

Yes

Answer 7

Sure, people can be frozen before death and then unfrozen!

Wait, you want to know if they'll be alive after that? Oh.

That's different.

Answer 8

cryonics or cryogenics are a big money scam dreamed up by the man.

they take your money.... freeze you up in front of your family.... and then when your family leaves they throw you in the dumpster behind the building.

p.s. walt disney was a nazi.... i hope someone accidentally unplugs him.

Answer 9

they have revived dogs and other animals using this techniques but no known humans(as yet) have been done

Answer 10

Yes but I don't think they would be alive.It would not work.
