if cryogenic technology were real would you freeze yourself?

The rule is you have to freeze yourself for at least 200 years. The cryo-pods will sustain human life up to a maximum of 2000 years.

 

In the event of catastrophic system failure the pods can't guarantee you will be successfully woken. And there is between a .01% and 2% chance of incurring physical tissue damage- you might wake up missing an arm or worse.

 

Would you do it?

Well not with all the shit you added to the hypothetical.  If I get to revive and be intact, hell yeah.....But all that other shit is fucked

 

The odds are good of being successfully awoken.  I'd say its good gamble.

The future sucks, most of the wold is on fire, Women have been extinct for 50 years and now I can't even beat off.  I'll just die in my own timeline, thx. 

 

Buuuuuut, there also that off chance that I pull a Futurama and my accounts have accrued to ridiculous amounts.....Might be worth an arm or so.

Like, responsibilities - social and financial - aside? Hell the fuck yeah. Imagine how great the games will have gotten by then. :|

I mean of course that's assuming humanity doesn't engage in mass nuclear war either wiping themselves out or blowing themselves back to the stone age.
