I did it again! For the second time, I proved that cryonics is
POSSIBLE for ANY animal with an exoskeleton. Just now, I put a
1-2cm long wasp i caught in a small transparent container and
filled it with water. Then, I placed the container with the wasp in
the freezer. 60 minutes later, i took the container out and saw the
insect frozen within a block of ice. i waited for the ice to thaw
then retrieved the wasp from the wet puddle. drying the wasp with a
sheet of tissue paper, i waited for 3-5 minutes before the wasp
started to move. first its feelers, then its head, its abdomen, and
its legs started waving in the air. within moments the insect was
as alive as ever, with the exception of its wings which were now
useless and could never be used again...what if humans had
exoskeletons? we could survive in deep space, our bodies frozen in
time, and even though 100 years may have passed, our bodies would
not change at all. how cool is that?

many specimens), please refer to the thread below:
