TED Ed has released a fascinating video that takes an informative deep dive into the field of cryobiology and it explores the possibility of humans being frozen and preserved so they can be resurrected in the future. This has always been a crazy concept to think about!

I remember growing up and hearing rumors that Walt Disney’s head was frozen so that he could be brought back to life one day. As a kid that was the most mind-bending and insane thing I ever heard!

In 1967, “James Bedford had a plan to cheat death. He was the first person to be cryogenically frozen. This process promised to preserve his body until a theoretical future when humanity could cure any illness, and essentially, reverse death. So is it possible to freeze a human, preserve them indefinitely, and then thaw them out?”

In the video, Shannon N. Tessier explores the challenges of human cryopreservation. Check it out!
