Alcor, which says it has had 170 patients so far, writes on its website that its practice is an"experiment" and asks:"Would you rather be in the experimental group, or the control group?"
The company has accused Mr Pilgeram of feigning concern about his father's cryonic preservation in an attempt to receive his life insurance funds - which had been spent on the scientific procedure. He died on Friday 10 April 2015 after suffering a cardiac arrest while walking home from a restaurant. He was 90 years old.
Sky News has seen court documents which show that Laurence Pilgeram had signed a contract agreeing Alcor could change the method of preservation to"neuropreservation" from his preferred method of"whole body suspension" in an emergency situation.

Look on the bright side. They could have merely preserved his arse.
If they bring him back to life and he has dandruff,what shampoo will he use. Not just a hatrack my friend....oh wait! 🤦🏼♂️
Company have been watching too much Futurama
And Liverpool still wouldn’t have won the PL.
As if.if true then hope they get the money back
Any miraculous rebirth, using DNA, still isn't YOU, the person. Cryonics is just like religion - they both play on our innate fear of death.
I’d like to hear why the Cryo company wants to KEEP the head? To the point of the family having to sue them.
We’ve all been there
That's nuts....
I'd like to know how they planned on reviving him and curing him in the future if they only kept his head.
What will he do with his head if he gets it back.
Why can't the media proof anything they write anymore? Every single article has spelling, grammar and factual mistakes. How can we trust anything you write if you can't get a simple fact right? $120,000 (£9,500)
In a box
Did these people learn nothing from Futurama?
