Many-Worlds Interpretations Can Not Imply 'Quantum Immortality'

Published 2 Feb 2009 in quant-ph | (0902.0187v3)

Abstract: The fallacy that the many worlds intepretation (MWI) of quantum mechanics implies certain survival in quantum Russian roulette-like situations (the 'Quantum Suicide' (QS) thought experiment) has become common enough that it is now necessary to publicly debunk this belief despite the risk of further publicizing it. 'Quantum Immortality' is an extension of the QS Fallacy (QSF) with some additional unlikely assumptions. The QS/QI ideas are examined here and shown to be false.
