The most inescapable part of life is death. Despite that, science keeps coming closer and closer to ways to reverse death, undo death, or just ignore it entirely. Not that weโre really making zombies or resurrecting anyone yet, but you never know what the future holds.

Guess those Pittsburgh scientists prevented those dogs from going to heaven. Thus not all dogs go to heaven.
Not sure if I want to watch this or not. I predict lots of icky animal experiments… Well, in I go!
"Hearts and brains are tinker-toys!" I don't think bringing the cells back to life is all that impossible, but if the thoughts and memories that make you who you are, are gone, there doesn't seem to be much point.
I recently read a really mind-blowing article about a study done on Mycobacterium leprae, which causes leprosy. The bacteria can stimulate the kidney to grow new, entirely healthy cells. It reprograms a type of cell in the kidney into a stem-cell like state which then grows the kidney, much like a fetus grows a kidney. It has exciting consequences not just for doing away with the need for kidney transplants, but for research into reversing aging in other organs as well.
sadly those things frozen in the ground, include anthrax and other dangers to the world.
I've been listening to so much Casual Criminalist that watching Simon be serious is really weird now…
Imagine dying, then being brought back to life again, except your body is missing and you're just the equivalent of a Futurama head-in-a-jar, conscious, living, but stuck there, can't go anywhere, can't talk (cos no lungs), can't really do anything, just trapped there, imprisoned, ugh, scary thought… :S
Wouldn't a head transplant actually be a body transplant?
I seem to recall a documentary about cryonics where they had a lot of incidents where they lost power.
yeah, about the head transplant idea — no. i would NOT want my head transplanted to another body. stem cells and gene editing is the way i would want to go.
"Just because you can doesn't mean you should."
The Lefties are about as Zombified as you can get. ๐ง๐งโโ๐งโโ ๐๐
I don't know but a robot body don't sound to bad .. you'll be able to have your choice to be downloaded of a Tesla body or The Terminator model
Backing up human brains to a computer? What is this, SOMA??
Why do we call it a head transplant – when its actually a body transplant?
Zombies are everywhere just look at Twitter…
And youtube is flagging this for kung flu…
If someone stops breathing or their heart stops, they are dead. So they are already bringing back the dead. Why focus on the brain, our ancestors didn't. Is it just because that's the organ we haven't saved yet? Screw these scientists and their ethical concerns. They're just scared, not moral.
Wow Simon, More "Woo" by the week for clicks. Are you ok with that? Podcast: "Skeptics guide to the Universe", Maybe should be in your playlist?
Has anyone seen that movie "the lazarus effect?" Very interesting.
There's also a really interesting documentary Netflix about cryogenics. Specifically about a little girl who died. Its called hope frozen
Just a shot in the dark, butt I'm going to assume that since the head was removed, it's not fine. Not fine at all.
Cheers from the Pacific West Coast of Canada.
Another video he was laughing about how popular Media likes to call tons of things zombies. Oh how the turns Table.
Not really an Apocalypse then.
7:49 50 ๐๐๐ Simon says, "dead Prig's brain." !:-)
Sounds like Pet Sematary.
โYour scientists were so preoccupied with whether or not they could, they didnโt stop to think if they should.โ
Iโve been watching/listening to simons podcastsโฆ I like podcasts because they use less of my battery than videos.
Can people just leave dogs out of their sick experiments? This is reason #23,736 as to why I hate humans. Dogs are way better people than humans.
You have to wonder about Russia leading the way on "resurrection" technology. Who were they told to bring back first? Lenin or Stalin? Or maybe it's just a gambit to ensure VP retains power for several lifetimes?
We should not meddle in Godโs land.
Nothing's certain except, er, OK, just taxes.
The Italian Dr transplanted the heads of 2 copses. The corpses are still dead afterwards. Must have been a success ๐
