Noun edit

quantum suicide (uncountable)

  1. (quantum mechanics) A thought experiment in which it is proposed that it is impossible to commit suicide, as at each attempt the universe will split into multiple realities, in at least one of which the person will still be alive.
    Although quantum suicide is a well-reasoned argument, the multi-universe premise on which it stands is more controversial.
