How Quantum Suicide Works

In this mind-bending episode of Stuff You Should Know, Josh and Chuck dive headfirst into the bizarre world of quantum physics, specifically exploring a thought experiment called "quantum suicide" created by physicist Max Tegmark. They tackle some of the most unsettling concepts in modern physics, including parallel universes, Schrödinger's famous cat paradox, and the many-worlds interpretation that suggests reality splits into multiple versions every time a decision is made. Get ready for your brain to hurt as they attempt to make sense of a universe where particles can exist in multiple states simultaneously and observation itself changes reality.
