query: What is quantum suicide and how does it relate to the philosophy of physics?
answer: Quantum suicide is a thought experiment in quantum mechanics and the philosophy of physics that uses a variation of Schrödinger's cat to potentially falsify interpretations of quantum mechanics other than the Everett many-worlds interpretation.  It explores the subjective experience of surviving this experiment (quantum immortality), prompting philosophical discussion about the nature of consciousness and reality within different quantum interpretations.
