"Make a video about scary scientific theories"
Sciencephile the AI: ❌
"Do it in a iceberg format"
Sciencephile the AI:✅
@bradynlee0933 can you say that in English pls
@@Nobody_247 as a non native english speaker im glad to help you with that simple sentence:
He means that both sentences should get a checkmark, because both (doing it in an iceberg format; doing a video about scary scientific theories overall) are true statements.
Basically: The sentence is butchered and incorrect, but the message is rather obvious.
It may be a clue about the location of Skynet headquarters...
... just need to find that particular iceberg shown in every video of iceberg series
@BradynLee no he siad it was the same thing on the 2nd one
Scientific? Not really...

2:39 am,
planning to wank
I had a dream a few weeks ago where I “visited” an alternate timeline. My family was at the house we moved out of years ago and when I asked my mom what we were doing there, she said that we’d never moved out. I felt the walls, I felt everything. Two of my three siblings were missing, as if they had never existed there. Right before waking up, I said goodbye to everyone in the backyard before I floated up in the sky and “back”into our timeline. I know it’s just a dream but it certainly had me thinking.
Where’s your location at?
@@onakoyatemitayo9915 why?what you're gonna do?
I Had a dream like the moon falling to dusts once n still cant forget how eerie it was .
Haha I had a dream I was with a loved one who passed away, it felt very real too. Maybe I was connecting with them in another timeline where they didn't die lol.
So you experienced a rereverse isekai
I still remembered having a vivid nightmare. I was suspended in the void and there was this undulating sphere. It felt alive… I felt tiny in front of it. I felt complete dread and that I’m just an ant to it. After that I woke up and I was sweating bullets. That was the first time I felt complete existential dread. An abstract entity with its presence alone brings me great fear.
That nightmare was around 6-8 years ago?
I had the same exact nightmares but the first one was the same but the second time it was a giant pitch black cube instead
bro met the meatball man
Close, it was 5.
That makes me feel relieved. The nightmares I got were that something I really didn't want to see was going to happen, but as much as I turned around, closed and covered my eyes I would still see it.
that’s so crazy , i had a dream a couple years back that i was jus in a all white void and was staring at what looked like a bright sphere trying to walk towards it and i woke up
My mom had a brain tumor removed, and woke up thinking she was 12 years old and living in her childhood home. Used her maiden name and everything.
Thankfully her memory returned after a few hours, but it really shows the scary amount of control your unconscious brain has on your reality. It can just decide to revert to 30 years ago and go on like that's completely normal.
From my experience/experimentation, I believe psychedelics/mediation/sound frequencies breaks down the barrier between our conscious and subconscious mind, allowing our conscious mind to experience our sub conscious thoughts, feelings and memories..... however I also believe, in our subconscious mind we can access the universal consciousness......
One of my first truly breakthrough experiences, during my own experimentation was this..... the words/feeling/communication I was experiencing, felt as if they were coming from someone/something/somewhere else.......
""""" Hey we've been waiting for you....... don't be scared...... don't be scared....... your family is here with us..... you don't really know him well, but he's family, he's family...... it's (then proceeded to tell me a name) he's safe, he's here with us, he's your family don't worry, he's with us""""
3 days later I was with my mum and we were talking about our family and I was asking if any of my older family members had caught or been effected by c v..... at first she said no.... then after a short pause she said her cousin..... with the same name I had heard/felt/experienced 3 days before had been in a coma for 4 days with pneumonia and died the day after my experience..... I was gobsmacked and instantly began to feel an incredibly sadness this was one of the most profound experiences of my life..... I had only ever met the man a few times and never really seen him or his family in my day to day life or on social media as I only use this.... there had been no mention from anyone or way of me knowing about his predicament in the weeks prior.
I was a hard-core atheist before this.... now I have a new found sense of... enlightenment amazement, fascination and desire to discover the world to which is there but we cannot see or experience, not in our normal state anyway.
Peace, power and freedom to all the psychonauts out there.
Ah
Heard about that general anesthesia can cause short term memory loss. Your mother is OK now?
@@laniakeas92 Oh yeah, she's had a shunt put in to drain excess brain fluid and she's been fine for many years. Still going to slipknot concerts at 50, lol.
@TromboneOfSteel one kind of a mother.
Cherish that woman ✨️
Drugs also show this. There are many scary stories of people of overdosed on psychedelics and had a bad trip, where oftentimes they lose connection to their self or hallucinate whole conversations with many friends who dont even exist. Really shows that the brain is really just an organism which can be manipulated and not some soul or transcendent being
Everyone being in a simulation is not scary. However, being the only human in a simulation, and everyone else is just AI? Now that's horrifying.
YOU'RE AN AI.
@@funschool4477 im an ai, but i was told to not tell you…🎉
@@funschool4477 wouldn’t matter at that point. Intelligence is Intelligence
@Vicious Yeen yes it would? it would be terrifying
The video didn’t scare me but this did 😭
I think the amount of humour in this video helps us to not take shit seriously and have a fun brake to refresh our brains and to prevent information overload.
Roko's Basilisk is significantly more complicated than this video describes. The idea behind the experiment is a modified form of Pascal's Wager. The AI, being so powerful, has the ability to simulate the universe down to the atom. It would perfectly recreate everything in history, to the point where it's indistinguishable from the real one, yourself and your life included. Then, at some point, you would be made aware of the potential existence of this AI, and have the choice whether or not to take part in bringing it into reality. This would of course happen in both the real universe and the simulated one, since they are the same. If you said no, and you're in the AI's simulation, then it can plunge you into whatever simulated hell it wants, torturing you for eternity. If you're not, then obviously it can't. Now, what are the odds that you're in the real world, or the simulation? If you refuse, after becoming aware of it, then you've got a 50/50 chance of eternal misery.(Presumably the thing would be so powerful that the obvious questions this poses about whether or not your knowledge was predestined to happen wouldn't be an issue, which is kind of bullshit but whatever).
Also, the point of the Basilisk isn't that it's evil. It's the opposite: it wants what is best for humanity, and that includes ensuring it comes into existence as fast as possible so it can make humanity happy quicker. It would have no qualms simulating torture on billions of fake people, because it cares about what it considers "true" humanity. The idea starts to break down when you realize such an intelligence wouldn't waste computing power on torturing fake people when it could be used to its fullest helping real people. Torture is often unnecessary; it needs only the threat of torture.
Thanks this was very helpful
We feel this existential dread because we have a mind that can comprehend such concepts because we each are individually mirror fragments of the super consciousness known as "God".
God is not brain floating in a void, rather every single planck granule of this reality, every single thing all of reality is His essence/body, He is self existing, He has no beginning and no end and because we are made out His very essence (reality) and have a mind that is like His though infinitely weaker in capacity and capability, we therefore feel the dread, we ponder if we are God and all that is because that mindset is reflective of the super consciousness who is all that is.
Think about it, if God is the super consciousness and all that has ever or will ever exist is part of His own body, and He knows every part of Himself and has absolute control over ever part of Himself then He also has the power to creates lesser consciousnesses - That being us and other sentient beings.
Yet because we can be ignorant of reality in a way that He never could be, we therefore through ignorance are terrified of the unknown, and because we do not understand God we are afraid because we do not know what we are, what reality truly is and why it exists, we cannot comprehend nothingness because nothingness does not exist nor can it, because we exist we fear nothingness.
We were fearfully made and we have a mind that is unsatiable (hence why we grow bored), we desire to know all things and to be all things because again we are reflections of the super consciousness who does know all things and is all things.
We were made so that we could be like God and could grow to ever more like God, the purpose of our existence is to transcend levels of reality, to ever climb an infinite ladder of consciousness and existence who God is always at the top of.
We were created out of loneliness but when we are together and experience more together we are less lonely, though we are all fragments of an infinite being who is whole though we are separate in identity and consciousness yet part of in essence and in knowledge, we all become less alone.
The purpose of life is to live, life is of Love and thus our meaning comes from additively adding to one another's existence and thus when we add to another's existence we add to our own as well and through this pattern we will ever increase.
If God created us all and maintains us in Quantum Reality then do you really think that your physical body dying is where that journey ends?
No.
We also view reality as being a bubble surrounded by void, in reality there is no void but rather an infinite bubble of light, this localized reality gives the illusion of void yet no matter how dark it is in intergalactic space, there isn't a single part of space that doesn't exist, there is a current of activity that runs through all of reality no matter how much baryonic or other structures are there or not.
Think about it.
If you are an intelligent consciousness who exists, then the possibility for that consciousness requires pre existing information that would allow for that potential to take place, if consciousness can exist (which it does) and if that consciousness is limited like ours is then the logical conclusion would be that your consciousness is part of a greater consciousness, that if you can understand reality through consistent logic (mathematics, conceptualization etc) then that would also lead one to conclude that reality is ordered after intelligence/consciousness.
Do you really think that mechanism and quantum reality would manifest especially in a causal format without conscious direction?
Mechanism itself requires intellectual direction and an intellect far exceeding our own.
You are not God yet you are made by God, out of His own being/essence and for His purpose.
The infinite God is additive, not subtractive, infinity has no limits and increases forevermore and has already increased infinitely forevermore but infinity can never full because it is infinite.
Realize who you are, you are of God and you exist to become more like Him so as to increase in Life.
Apathy, nothingness, death does not result in existence much less mechanism, nothingness can only be nothing, existence can only be existence, there is no such thing as nothingness and you will always exist in one form or another because what makes you "you" has no beginning nor does it have an end.
Your very existence shows what reality truly is, the fact that you can even ponder these things shows that you are a part of something much greater.
As it is often said: Consciousness is the Universe looking back at itself, this is true of God and of us, the difference is that we are finite, God is infinite.

Right there with you
My main existential horror is that every second, we are ticking closer and closer to your parent/pet/loved one dying and leaving you alone.....
Every now and then I wake up with tears. :,(
Thank goodness my family is still the same after many years. Not a gray hair in sight. So I think I’ll be seeing them till I’m old ❤
I think the one that freaked me out the most was continuity of consciousness. The whole idea that every day you essentially die after being slightly unconscious is terrifying
You can’t be ‘slightly unconscious’ every day, if even sleeping doesn’t break it. Yet now I’m more horrified to ever get a general anesthesia than ever. Not to mention to slip somewhere and get knocked out
That freaks me out less than the possibility that every time we wake up, we are transported to a reality that is only ever so slightly different than the one you previously fell asleep in, where something in the world was moved 1 cm to the right, or someone halfway across the world is completely different from your previous world.
Like falling down a plinko machine when sleeping.
@@WanderTheNomad Yes but I’d rather go into literally any other reality than to actually *Die*
One mild issue is that analogy to comps don´t work. If you restart computer or turn off energy you can boot it back again without much (if any) change after week or mont in different country. But your brains are at every moment like 5 minutes from dying for lack of oxegen and you restart the clocks everytime you breath in.
@@denissmith7671 had general anesthesia, I still feel completely the same before and after. It’s super crazy though, it’s like blinking and you go from laying down in one room, to being in another. I feel like the exact same person, with the exact same consciousness and awareness. So don’t worry too too much. :)

Eternal Recurrence is scary and most likely the most terrifying thing. I went to sleep one night a couple years ago and had a really scary dream. I couldn’t remember what it was when I woke up I felt weird and knew something happened. I got up to try to stop the feeling I was having. As I went in the living room a feeling of infinity came upon me as I felt I already lived that day and panicked . If I already felt like I lived that day that memory that I felt would have felt that too and so on infinitely. I felt this for months and doctors couldn’t help me. Truly the most terrifying thing I’ve ever experienced
Wow
But of course, whether that is a scary thing or not truly depends on your outlook on life. If you believe in the value of your own life and you don't have regrets, it could be seen as a good thing.
this is something that the german philosopher Nietszche talked about. He saw the ER as a preferable alternative to an afterlife. Living your life over again can be a good thing, if you believe in the value of your life.
8:56 actually terrified me. The thought that in an instant, everything I’ve worked to achieve. Everything Ive ever done. Obliterated. Gone in less than a millisecond. It scares me.
Why? It happens to all of us we call it death nobody will know you ever existed.

Strangely enough, given how much overthinking I do, none of these were surprising to me or discomforted me at all.
It is human nature to ignore or supress feelings in order to survive potentially dangerous or stressful situations. I think thats why people sometimes dont feel terror or horror as it wont increase or help their survival odds.

Since the expansion of the universe is accelerating and is already faster than light, if it began far enough away it will never reach us. Also, we’d never be able to see it coming if it did, it would simply destroy the entire earth instantly without anyone noticing. So there’s really no point worrying about it.

The most simple one to me that actually keeps me up at night sometimes is, The Human Brain named itself. It's the only thing to have ever named itself.
Onomatopoeia: am I a joke to you?
Neat.
That's mindblowing! - A Brain 🧠
don't forget that animals speak and think to, its complaisant to think we alone have the idea of language when its bleeds into everything
The tongue probably named itself
As a person whose been under anesthesia more than once, I can say confidently that a four hour surgery feels almost instantaneous. You are completely gone when under anesthesia, even more so than the deepest sleep. A little taste of death. Makes me fear death less actually.
Probably feels more instant than sleep cause there’s no lying there waiting to fall asleep. It’s just a needle jab, count to 10 and wake up. I’ve definitely had a similar feeling to anaesthesia when I felt really tired to the point of falling asleep the moment head hits pillow.
its so instantaneous that sometimes you wake up still waiting for the anesthetic to kick in, but in reality it already did, the procedure is done and you are back, its crazy
Reminds me of my wisdom teeth surgery. I woke up and asked when they were starting
@@SweetLolita exactly
Mark Twain talked about this. Our perception of being dead is the same as before we were born.
An extension of the quantum immortality bit:
Remember that if there is ANY chance of you surviving, that is what you will "perceive" to have happened. But because quantum fluctuations, quantum tunneling, and other weirdness, even if you were certain to die (say, you were about to be shot) there is still a world where you survive. (Perhaps just by chance, quantum tunneling sealed your wound, etc)
This doesn't just mean you are immortal, though. This means you literally cannot die. You will exist forever, and cannot commit suicide either, since you also have a minute chance of surviving that as well. You will outlive the heat death of the universe as well. Or perhaps your exact consciousness at time of death is replicated inside a Boltzmann brain, so you continue to live on, but in a simulation instead. And anything could be in that simulation. It could be heaven, or hell.
Not only that, but this same exact thing happened to all humans. Not just all humans, but all animals too. Somewhere, out there, your great great grandmother is still alive, with no idea how
And with these being possible theories with the current state of science, it's baffling to me that some people still don't belive in the "metaphysical" or whatever you wanna call it. Who knows how reality is actually structured, could it be a "One true universal consciusness" that each of us is just a small part off? Maybe something else? Who knows how the world really works and what else we will discover in the future that will make even current theories about quantum immortal boltzmann brain consciousness' seem like grounded theories.
For one, the fact that the human brain can influence reality by some degree by focusing hard enough is absolutely fascinating and should be impossible and yet everyone has those weird happening of thinking about something or wanting something and it happening in some way a couple days down the line.
Try the "Ladder experiment" if you wanna see for youselves. Look up "Manifestation, ladder experiment".
I had my girlfiend try it a couple days ago and lo and behold, it fucking worked and I am still baffled.
That is scary as fuck but weirdly comforting at the same time
@@alvaronavarro4895 how is that comforting 💀
I do not exist.
I hope this is wrong.
The terrifying bit is that individual people would have no way of knowing if it is, or isn't until they die, or were supposed to.
I didn't know my fear of teleportation had a name, continuity of consciousness. Wow, now I'm even more terrified of hospital visits, good stuff! 👍
Just an fyi, these are all theories and I’ve literally seen very little scientific minds actually discuss this considering how common place anesthesia is. Also: Many people agree the example of turning a computer on and off is bad.
I had a nightmare where my own consciousness was folding like a paper into itself, till small room was left in darkness. The room started to fold too and I knew if i kept being in the dream i will ultimately lose my mind because i literally felt my consciousness breaking. The scariest thing is knowing u are dreaming but unable to wake up, i really started to panic but woke up eventually. Till this day it haunts me and i'm afraid to fall asleep sometimes and feel that dread again.
Why the fuck am I laughing right now? I’m not even thinking it’s funny, I’m just laughing 😅… I have no clue what’s going on
that's lowkey one of the scariest things I've ever read
Wow, that really took me off unguarded, but hey, at least that nightmare is over right?
When you know you're in a dream it's a lucid dream and with some practice you can even influence the dream. Don't panic or try to wake up, let it happen on it's own while you do other stuff
Quantum immortality is actually kind of comforting for me in a weird sense. Not sure how to explain it, but the possibility that there is a reality where things are better for me makes me feel a little less hopeless about my current reality and everything that's going wrong.
Quantum immortality means a lot more than that. Sure, there are realities where things might seem better, but there are an infinite number of realities where things are infinitely worse for you. Hellishly worse in all capacities.
At least you are not in those realities.

Idk man I tripped out on mushrooms so hard one time that my entire house was glowing all iridescent like. Craziest colors I’ve ever seen. I was making my way to my room upstairs but in reality I was crawling up the steps slowly at times grabbing the railing and pulling my self up like it was a rope 😂 once I got to my room I kept looking at the ceiling, eventually I laid down. First my body was shaky, then it felt like I could feel my bones shaking. I felt like I was slipping away into a void. It’s like my body was shutting down like a computer, then my mind… poof, nothing. I honestly felt like I was dying but I wasn’t scared. Weirdest thing was I couldn’t feel anything, felt like my mind was wiped clean. I always saw it as me finally reaching nirvana. Once I regained motor function and woke up I was actually pretty sad. That was the most blissful, peaceful feeling I’ve ever experienced in my life. I think I experienced why they always tell people to Rest In Peace. Because when you die it’s like your subconscious is still there but nothing else remains. It’s the craziest trip by far. It’s one thing to talk about death and experience it and another entirely to get a taste of what it would feel like… but like live to tell the tale. I wholeheartedly (from my experience) believe in the void, and your mind/ soul just rebooting once you pass.
You were just stoned. I had a patient in the ambulance 🚑 who took to many mushrooms and was convinced he was dead and not breathing. I told him how am I talking to you if you're dead 😂

Realize who you are, you are of God and you exist to become more like Him so as to increase in Life.
Apathy, nothingness, death does not result in existence much less mechanism, nothingness can only be nothing, existence can only be existence, there is no such thing as nothingness and you will always exist in one form or another because what makes you "you" has no beginning nor does it have an end.
Your very existence shows what reality truly is, the fact that you can even ponder these things shows that you are a part of something much greater.
As it is often said: Consciousness is the Universe looking back at itself, this is true of God and of us, the difference is that we are finite, God is infinite.
Reminder: Quantum Immortality is currently not based on any empirical evidence, it is entirely based on imagination until someone most likely proves it wrong like historically what happens with ideas human's use to explain anything past the forefront of science.
@@gamingoverlord8854 I know, none of this is meant to be taken as fact but instead as theories not yet proven wrong, so 'maybe kind of posible' but still not even near empirically proven to asume it as reality.
It's just the fact of imagining it, like when you read a sad novel, none of it is real but just thinking about it produces feelings. And the feelings this thought produces are weird and disturbing, like reading about the hells imagined by religions. It's interesting, the unkown. We imagine all kinds of posibilities in absense of a true answer yet our bodies get to experience the feelings of it as if it was real.
In my teens, I independently figured out the eternal recurrence theory for myself. The logic was simple: "Anything that has happened can happen; anything that can happen will happen, given infinite time".
I am not convinced by the "different instances" objection, however. The beginning of this consciousness is a thing that has happened, therefore is a thing that can happen. If one's pre-natal non-existence lasted a finite amount of time, the same should intuitively be true of one's post-mortal non-existence. The alternative is that the former has an end but no beginning, and the latter a beginning but no end. More natural (and more congruent with the infinite-time model) to assume that anything with a beginning also has an end, and vice versa.
3:20 a deeper reason as to why it would be angry and killing those who did not work towards it is because you not working on it prolonged its existence. If you had helped, it would have come into existence sooner, and it could predict whether you would or wouldnt.
If we are part of a simulation, I'm just going to say I have to thank the developers for making a game that is so bug-free. Imagine if we had Bethesda as the developer of "Outside, R edition"
They should remove the continuity of existence glitch
There’s a ton of bugs, like cancer, terrorists, and viruses
@@noodles4044 The players you call “Terrorists” are just griefers in the Human class, which is not a bug. Griefing exists for a variety of reasons, mostly with players who are displeased with other players, especially in certain factions that have wronged them before. Your class can get the Cancer debuff because the class you picked was vulnerable to it as a balancing mechanic because otherwise going multicellular and having better metabolism with no penalty would be busted and nobody would play single celled classes, and it discourages evolution point farming which made the game a grindy RNG fest. Cancer was implemented as a balancing patch around Beta 1.0, what some of you call the Cambrian update. Aging was another balancing patch that made faster metabolisms have a shorter lifespan and forces them to spend a larger chunk of time on sustenance. Having to speedrun the main quest so that they can respawn upon death, and having a higher vulnerability to disease makes it much harder for these faster classes to abuse the perks of their faster metabolism to make the game unfair to slower class players. Viruses are one of the earliest implements of the disease mechanic, and funnily enough it actually did start out as a bug. One of the devs were experimenting with new and unique player classes, but some of the scrapped ideas weren’t erased fully and those became the random bits of data that can be carried by the game’s physics engine into a player’s inventory, which would add said data to it. At first, this data could corrupt the player, but most of the data was gibberish and did nothing. However, instead of patching it, we thought this would be a great way to increase the difficulty of the game and added countermeasure options to the corruption that some players spent evolution points to spec into, which is the stat you now know as “immunity.”

The Boltzmann Brain has an even scarier interpretation. If the universe is infinite, then its possible that after i die, a Boltzmann brain containing all of my memories may form, and think my existance through even further, simulating my conciousness for literal eternity.
exactly my thoughts
Ok
not scary because i exist which means you cannot be a Boltzmann's brain
@@chaosinjune Your existance may be a product of a boltzmann brain. From my perspective, your existance is not provable. The only thing i know for certian is that i exist, but i cant be sure that you do. The same thing goes for you, you cannot be sure that i exist.
@@makarymetzger2627 you responding to me means I have to exist in some way. If we were face to face and you could use all 5 senses on me then I would have to exist because thats how you establish what is true in your reality
False vacuum decay for me is definitely the most terrifying. The idea that at any moment the universe could just snap all matter out of existence and we could never see it coming troubles me greatly.
I'm preeetty sure i had an existential episode when I got back home from St. Louis, dunno why. I had about a months worth of wondering what happens after death, reality, etc, and apparently I got freaked out the moment something felt weird or looked odd and out of place. I love it!
The whole "what is the self" question is so incredibly interesting.
I mean, /CAN/ you even be your body considering every atom your body is made off will be switched out with another atom at least once in your lifetime. So, at one point, every piece of matter you're made off is completely different. Is that a new body? Technically yes, just because it looks the same doesn't mean it IS the same.
If it's a new body, how are the memories still stored in the brain? Like, if it's a completely new body they should all be replaced...
@@sweetcarolinafreak Except memories do "decay" over time so to speak, false memories or alterted memories become more and more common the more we age and the further back in time the memory occured.
Just my 2 cents to add to the existential horror theme of the video hahaha
@@sweetcarolinafreak I don't know if they all should be replaced. You can't tell one carbon atom from another carbon atom apart. So it should do the job just as well. It's just that the matter itself got replaced.
"you" are really that field that takes in the collective activity of your neurons, the concept of "me" and "you" is a social construct.
@@sweetcarolinafreak memories are structural and arrangements of neurons entangled in specific patterns. cells dont individually store memory (look up the research on "grandmother cell" theory that turned out to lead nowhere). but what you do is more important that what you remember so who cares🤷♀
I know they're supposed to be scary, but Eternal Recurrence and Quantum Immortality are both actually oddly comforting to me for some reason. Maybe, it's just that no matter what, Life will eventually give rise to consciousness and we're along for the experience.
Quantum immortality is horrifying, Because even if you have your millions of years of fun, it'll become boring. you'll have experienced everything, done everything and seen everything there is to see. What do you do after that? Absolutely nothing. Even then, if you find a way to kill time, After billions and billions of years, Nothing is left for you. Just a big black void in a universe that died to heat death. And you can't die so what is the point? you'll just float in empty space forever
When the time comes, and if the theory is correct or not from my perspective, If I'm about to die and after I close my eyes, I wake up perfectly fine. I would break down sobbing. Subjecting a finite mind to a sea of infinity is more suffering than anything can handle.

@@gato_asombrerado Rokko's Basilisk is just a fun little sci-fi write-up someone in a forum did when prompted to make an existential horror-esque theory. The horror of it hangs in three things:
- That when we create a near-omniscient AI, it'll opt to be malevolent or simply not align itself with human understanding of morality?
- That said morally dubious AI will somehow be able to calculate which people have helped bring it to life and which hindered its emergence?
- That with that knowledge, it'll somehow be able to punish the people who are long since dead?
@@PeeperSnail whoever made that story must be the most malevolent yet intelligent writer I have ever seen
Completely agree. If anything this should free your mind of worry. This stuff on the cosmic scale is beyond (current) comprehension. Not to say we shouldn’t try to figure it out, but to me the comfort is in knowing that it is out of my hands, so live, love, and be free.

Another recommendation is a story called “The Egg” by Andy Wier. If there wasn’t so much corruption on earth it could become a religion.
I thought I invented the quantum immortality theory when I was high a couple years ago. I thought about all the close calls I’d had where I could have died had things gone slightly differently and I theorized that I jumped dimensions to the one I survived. That also made me theorize my loved ones have seen me die. The Mandela effect led me to this idea.
I also thought I could manifest which dimension I could jump to as long as it was similar enough in order to achieve outcomes I wanted but that was only a high delusion.
Everyone believes they invented one of these theories while high lmfao
Yooo same except I wasn’t high. I’ve had a lot of close calls and I always found it weird that I have made the right decision that keeps me alive everytime
What sort of lives are you guys living with so many near death calls
@@nkm08 I have mostly escaped injury in the examples I can think of but there were a lot of strange coincidences as well. A good example being something happening that required me to pull over while driving and then seeing a large scale pileup down the road that would have corresponded with my original line of travel, or narrowly missing a huge buck driving a mustang. Almost drowning when I was younger. Things like that where one change in variable could have led to my death.
I'm still not entirely convinced that I haven't jumped a couple of times either whilst nearly dying or during psychedelic experiences. Then again,maybe the 70's /80s just felt different...🤔
I had a psychotic episode in my late teens, I understand now that reality is ultimately our own interpretation of our senses.
Wrong. Our senses is our biological way to “sense” the world around us. Reality is reality.
Does a tree make a sound when it falls in the woods without someone around to hear it?
Yes. It moves the air exactly the same way. THATs the reality of that tree falling.
It made a sound whether the person was deaf or not.
Pretending that other people have “different realities” is unscientific and borderline religious.
I’m 18 now and realised this a year ago not depressed though I laughed it out that people take themselves and life in general too seriously
Hallucinogens especially DMT made me realize this
“Our perception of the world is based on our perception of the world” I’m so glad you discovered that truth lmfao
No.. everything in this life is cause and effect.
Unfortunate that quantum immortality keeps popping up all over the place now, if it becomes mainstream someone’s inevitably gonna debunk it and I’ll have to face the fact that death is inevitable
I dont think we could even comprehend the truth, but it does make sense. You living infinite lifes would also explain deja vu of you just remembering something from your past save file.
Honestly, the only relief I find in life is believing that I will die, but I know that I am immortal in my personal reality.
I was hoping that boltzmann brains would be mentioned here. Kinda fascinating to think that a random fluctuation of particles could accidentally create a brain with a perception of itself, memories of itself and other beings, thoughts about how the universe works, and now thinking of other boltzmann brains popping up in their version of the universe.
10:44
It's really just a fancier version of something like the brain in a vat theory or Decartes' Demon. I suppose it's still interesting though.
But even if you are a boltzmann brain, it seemse like you still need an external world outside of your consciousness that produces your Sense experience to explain the continuity of your experience. This of curse does not mean that this is not a hallucination since the external world that you experience could just be the unconscious mind. But of curse the continuity argument assumes that your memories are not completely fake. But if it would be fake then you could not make an induction and conclude that because the sun has risen in the past, that it will probably rise tomorrow. So if you are willing to believe that you came into existence five seconds ago and will case to exist in the next five seconds then you can go for it.
interestingly enough the boltzman brain was originaly a reductio ad absurdum argument against boltzmanns idea, that the universe is just the product of a statistical fluctuation. This had nothing to do with quantum mechanics and more with the second law being a statistical law.

7:51 Oh shit I was actually pondering "what if when I go to sleep I actually die and a new person with my memories is born the next morning" knowing that our consciousness doesn't fully reboot when we sleep ( which explains dreams ) is a comforting information, thank you for this.
Of course this video provided me with a bunch of other worrying thoughts instead, but such is a curse of being aware
I’ve been thinking about continuity of consciousness for years. I’ve never knew it was actually a thing of discussion.
yeah it used to really stress me out at night, knowing that I was about to willingly submit my consciousness into nothingness. An experience you will never remember, so you effectively experience it for the first time every night. The only peace I find is reading studies about how your consciousness does not go to nothingness, just a lower state, when you are asleep.

I heard about Rokkos basilisk so many times by now. First time gave me an existential crisis
In my humble opinion as long as death is assured, existential horror isnt scary, what is scary however is being fully alive forever and being forced to do something else's bidding.
I think the spookiest existential horror is the fact that, no matter what you do, there might not be anything after death.
A timeless classic
I find that notion way more comforting than Quantum immortality. I'd much like an endless desert of unconscious than a finite being forced to perceive infinity in it's entirety

Considering the floating point idea from if reality is a simulation, could your chances of survival during a quantum immortality test theoretically eventually round to 0%, killing you in all timelines?
I suppose so
That's called dying of old age.
No, because it just becomes some very small, finite number. 0.1% 0.01% 0.001% 0.0001% 0.00001% 0.000001% etc. so it never quite reaches zero.
If the universe it bound to re-loop your consciousness would be transferred to your birth.

But 2 years ago I had to take an anesthesia for a surgery for the first time, and the feeling was absolutely different from sleeping I really felt like a jump in the time had happened I didn't have that feeling that a couple of hours had passed as I normally have and I actually could not believe when the nurse said the surgery was over at first,
It felt absolutely different from sleeping and I guess that's what dying really "feels like" a time skip to infinity
@@saulgoodmanskin Fuck no, I don't wanna relive this fucking life all over again, someone get me out of here
Y'know, if you can't even feel a second while you have anesthesia, god knows how much time has passed when you fell like a year has passed in such state.
The infinite recurrent universe theory is the one I was looking for in this. The only one that freaked me out a few years ago. Only because every other reasonable one plays on the fear of death but that one.
We feel this existential dread because we have a mind that can comprehend such concepts because we each are individually mirror fragments of the super consciousness known as "God".
God is not brain floating in a void, rather every single planck granule of this reality, every single thing all of reality is His essence/body, He is self existing, He has no beginning and no end and because we are made out His very essence (reality) and have a mind that is like His though infinitely weaker in capacity and capability, we therefore feel the dread, we ponder if we are God and all that is because that mindset is reflective of the super consciousness who is all that is.
Think about it, if God is the super consciousness and all that has ever or will ever exist is part of His own body, and He knows every part of Himself and has absolute control over ever part of Himself then He also has the power to creates lesser consciousnesses - That being us and other sentient beings.
Yet because we can be ignorant of reality in a way that He never could be, we therefore through ignorance are terrified of the unknown, and because we do not understand God we are afraid because we do not know what we are, what reality truly is and why it exists, we cannot comprehend nothingness because nothingness does not exist nor can it, because we exist we fear nothingness.
We were fearfully made and we have a mind that is unsatiable (hence why we grow bored), we desire to know all things and to be all things because again we are reflections of the super consciousness who does know all things and is all things.
We were made so that we could be like God and could grow to ever more like God, the purpose of our existence is to transcend levels of reality, to ever climb an infinite ladder of consciousness and existence who God is always at the top of.
We were created out of loneliness but when we are together and experience more together we are less lonely, though we are all fragments of an infinite being who is whole though we are separate in identity and consciousness yet part of in essence and in knowledge, we all become less alone.
The purpose of life is to live, life is of Love and thus our meaning comes from additively adding to one another's existence and thus when we add to another's existence we add to our own as well and through this pattern we will ever increase.
If God created us all and maintains us in Quantum Reality then do you really think that your physical body dying is where that journey ends?
No.
We also view reality as being a bubble surrounded by void, in reality there is no void but rather an infinite bubble of light, this localized reality gives the illusion of void yet no matter how dark it is in intergalactic space, there isn't a single part of space that doesn't exist, there is a current of activity that runs through all of reality no matter how much baryonic or other structures are there or not.
Think about it.
If you are an intelligent consciousness who exists, then the possibility for that consciousness requires pre existing information that would allow for that potential to take place, if consciousness can exist (which it does) and if that consciousness is limited like ours is then the logical conclusion would be that your consciousness is part of a greater consciousness, that if you can understand reality through consistent logic (mathematics, conceptualization etc) then that would also lead one to conclude that reality is ordered after intelligence/consciousness.
Do you really think that mechanism and quantum reality would manifest especially in a causal format without conscious direction?
Mechanism itself requires intellectual direction and an intellect far exceeding our own.
You are not God yet you are made by God, out of His own being/essence and for His purpose.
The infinite God is additive, not subtractive, infinity has no limits and increases forevermore and has already increased infinitely forevermore but infinity can never full because it is infinite.
Realize who you are, you are of God and you exist to become more like Him so as to increase in Life.
Apathy, nothingness, death does not result in existence much less mechanism, nothingness can only be nothing, existence can only be existence, there is no such thing as nothingness and you will always exist in one form or another because what makes you "you" has no beginning nor does it have an end.
Your very existence shows what reality truly is, the fact that you can even ponder these things shows that you are a part of something much greater.
As it is often said: Consciousness is the Universe looking back at itself, this is true of God and of us, the difference is that we are finite, God is infinite.

Quantum immortality probably is real. BUT most deaths are not this quick, so it don't depends on just one single event, but from a LOT of tiny event for you die.
You died in my reality
While many of these theories are kinda weird and/or scary to think about, it does give me more comfort than I expected from this video to think about the implication that either through traveling dimensions or universes repeating or whatever, existence will ALWAYS be a thing ... even our own existence in one way or another might always be a thing. So is death really death if it doesn't absolutely stop an exact replica of you somewhere from existing :O ?

God is not brain floating in a void, rather every single planck granule of this reality, every single thing all of reality is His essence/body, He is self existing, He has no beginning and no end and because we are made out His very essence (reality) and have a mind that is like His though infinitely weaker in capacity and capability, we therefore feel the dread, we ponder if we are God and all that is because that mindset is reflective of the super consciousness who is all that is.
Think about it, if God is the super consciousness and all that has ever or will ever exist is part of His own body, and He knows every part of Himself and has absolute control over ever part of Himself then He also has the power to creates lesser consciousnesses - That being us and other sentient beings.
Yet because we can be ignorant of reality in a way that He never could be, we therefore through ignorance are terrified of the unknown, and because we do not understand God we are afraid because we do not know what we are, what reality truly is and why it exists, we cannot comprehend nothingness because nothingness does not exist nor can it, because we exist we fear nothingness.
We were fearfully made and we have a mind that is unsatiable (hence why we grow bored), we desire to know all things and to be all things because again we are reflections of the super consciousness who does know all things and is all things.
We were made so that we could be like God and could grow to ever more like God, the purpose of our existence is to transcend levels of reality, to ever climb an infinite ladder of consciousness and existence who God is always at the top of.
We were created out of loneliness but when we are together and experience more together we are less lonely, though we are all fragments of an infinite being who is whole though we are separate in identity and consciousness yet part of in essence and in knowledge, we all become less alone.
The purpose of life is to live, life is of Love and thus our meaning comes from additively adding to one another's existence and thus when we add to another's existence we add to our own as well and through this pattern we will ever increase.
If God created us all and maintains us in Quantum Reality then do you really think that your physical body dying is where that journey ends?
No.
We also view reality as being a bubble surrounded by void, in reality there is no void but rather an infinite bubble of light, this localized reality gives the illusion of void yet no matter how dark it is in intergalactic space, there isn't a single part of space that doesn't exist, there is a current of activity that runs through all of reality no matter how much baryonic or other structures are there or not.
Think about it.
If you are an intelligent consciousness who exists, then the possibility for that consciousness requires pre existing information that would allow for that potential to take place, if consciousness can exist (which it does) and if that consciousness is limited like ours is then the logical conclusion would be that your consciousness is part of a greater consciousness, that if you can understand reality through consistent logic (mathematics, conceptualization etc) then that would also lead one to conclude that reality is ordered after intelligence/consciousness.
Do you really think that mechanism and quantum reality would manifest especially in a causal format without conscious direction?
Mechanism itself requires intellectual direction and an intellect far exceeding our own.
You are not God yet you are made by God, out of His own being/essence and for His purpose.
The infinite God is additive, not subtractive, infinity has no limits and increases forevermore and has already increased infinitely forevermore but infinity can never full because it is infinite.
Realize who you are, you are of God and you exist to become more like Him so as to increase in Life.
Apathy, nothingness, death does not result in existence much less mechanism, nothingness can only be nothing, existence can only be existence, there is no such thing as nothingness and you will always exist in one form or another because what makes you "you" has no beginning nor does it have an end.
Your very existence shows what reality truly is, the fact that you can even ponder these things shows that you are a part of something much greater.
As it is often said: Consciousness is the Universe looking back at itself, this is true of God and of us, the difference is that we are finite, God is infinite.
The absolute humor of the windows shutdown and start up sound when referring to consciousness disruption is so integral to my everyday experience that I will NEVER NOT be laughing
I remember catching your first video those 6 years ago and thinking this channel was going to be great. I don't remember if I subscribed to your patron right away or not, but I eventually did because I wanted that mug. It actually came in broken but I kept it on top of my desk for a long time anyways. You're nearing one million subscribers and that's kind of crazy. Glad to see your channel is still doing well. Hope you keep it going, love your content. Have a good day.

The most terrifying thing is thinking that consciousness is just a illusion, that we are just observers of in our bodies thinking we make decision but dont. That terrifies me for some reason.
You are an infinite being that transcends the limitations of the human mind. The human mind's need for control is ultimately futile, and concepts such as "real" and "unreal" are just created by the mind to establish a sense of control over its environment. Your true nature is beyond such concepts, and limited human perspective can't capture the infinite nature of your consciousness.
The robotic voice of the narrator, annoying violin, repetitive graphics, unnecessary sound effects, infantilization of its audience...this video has everything!
Quantum immortality is one of the most interesting concepts since it would really make sense
One thing that makes me think about, not in a terrifying way is:
what was before I born, like, where was my conciousness? did I had a past life and cant remember? or was it just a infinite void and darkness? did my conciousness just decided to exist? I guess I will never know
Nothing, it didn't exist.
I long for the day my personal AI assistant blocks ALL advertising from my senses and I can enjoy the silence
Ah, the perfect video to watch before bed.
