you've paid for cryonics;

 

(1 in 8 people die in their sleep)

 

you die unexpectedly** in your sleep at home, hotel, or

anywhere other than medical facility;

**includes old age non-terminal

or your death requires autopsy;

both cases ruin your cryonics preservation, right?

who keeps your $$ for the full body or head preservation???!!!

Depends what you put in your will and in your cryonics contract.

 

Also, while you should certainly try to avoid those things we don't know if they count as "irreparable" in the future.

 

CI's check-in app seems to be the best solution at the moment for alerting people to your death. iBeat is a potential but currently very buggy.

You'll have to look in your contract and contact your cryonics provider.

Don't have cryonics provider yet.

Will be alcor if they remain best bet.
