Robert Ettinger, the much buzzed about and sometimes ridiculed founder of the cryonics movement- has died at the age of 92. In order to add yet another specimen to his growing number of frozen bodies that he hopes will be revived one day with the help of advanced technology, Ettinget has himself been cryopreserved and stored in an oversized bottle filled with liquid nitrogen. Other family members sharing the same fate and the possibility of rising again in the future are his mother, Rhea, his first wife, Elaine, and his second wife, Mae.
