      I don’t think this is possible at the moment and if it is i have never heard of it. I have seen this happen in an Austin Powers film but i do’t know if it is possible

      Not at the moment. We can preserve some tissues, but we’re a long way off a whole person.

      It’s possible to wake in the future from a coma, but your body would have aged while you were “sleeping”.

      I don’t think so. But why would you want to? All your friends and family would have gone and you’d be on your own, not knowing what to expect or if the world had got worse.

      I don’t think this is possible though. You can preserve your body once you die…the egyptians used to do this and make mummies! If you could I think a lot of people would be doing it because they would be curious about what life would be like in the future!
