A bizarre accident after an outdoor barbecue party in Japan results in human hibernation. I'm sure there are a number of scientists that would love to get their hands on this guy.

That is unbelievable. His organs shut down, and he will not have permanent damage? I agree, scientists would really enjoy a study of his bodily functions.
 
This is great news! :D

Both for the guy who survived and will probably make a full recovery, but also for science. Doctors would love to put patients who are in a coma into hibernation to slow down cell death, and if humans can be made to hibernate, maybe starships with a hibernated crew isn't so unlikely after all! :cool:
 
Just saw it on the news. Interesting, I'd love to see what scientists find out about this. Human hibernation would be something with high potential. :)
 
I hope he makes the right decision and lets scientists study him.

Perhaps this could lead to a breakthrough in better cryogenics?
 
We might need to know more, but is this ethical because we are studying him without his consent.

Well i dont care he should be forced then. Science > Ethics.

Dont be supprised that if he discovers that he has been experimented against his will that he sues the scientists.

Science = Ethics or Ethics should be greater than Science. No one should be experimented against his or her will.
 
the results of this are inconclusive. he's japanese, so of course he has super powers. we need to test on a normal person. otherwise, this is just the japanese secretly revealing another super power they have...
