Page "Quantum suicide and immortality" Paragraph 2

Keith Lynch recalls that Hugh Everett took great delight in paradoxes such as the unexpected hanging.

Everett didn't mention quantum suicide or quantum immortality in writing, but his work was intended as a solution to the paradoxes of quantum mechanics.

Lynch said " Everett firmly believed that his many-worlds theory guaranteed him immortality: His consciousness, he argued, is bound at each branching to follow whatever path does not lead to death ", Tegmark explains, however, that life and death situations don't normally hinge upon a sequence of binary quantum events like those in the thought experiment.
