Quantum immortality

I never heard of this idea until about 6 weeks ago, but it’s been terrifying me ever since. Imagine that you end up as some sickly, aging, miserable but never dying blob until the heat death of the universe. (10^100 years from now.)
That’s what this theory says the inevitable future of everybody is.

In a world where we can't even figure out Covid, I don't think anyone has a grasp on immortality. You're gonna be fine.

The whole idea, for in case you’re not aware, is that with infinite universes you never can actually die in all universes.
But you’ll never stop aging.

Not going to happen, my friend.
You're a solid 20 years behind the latest 4-1-1.

That is not my understanding of quantum immortality.
My understanding is as long as there is a non-zero chance of your survival, “you” survive.
Death is eventually inevitable.

How many marijuanas did it take for it to finally make sense?
ETA now I look like an a-hole for stealing O’s joke

I think the theory is that you never have a non-zero chance of survival, so you never die.
