Disaster Strikes a Young Cryonicist
On August 6th, 2024, around 3:30pm Pacific Time, Kerrigan Madden was struck by a truck and flung approximately eight meters while crossing the street. Several people—including a volunteer police officer—witnessed the accident and immediately contacted emergency medical services. Paramedics quickly arrived on the scene and immediately noticed his bracelet but didn’t check his necklace or wallet card. Kerrigan asked the volunteer officer who initially came to his aid to call the Cryonics Institute (CI).
Since the bracelet was covered in Kerrigan’s blood and the phone number was engraved in small red font, the volunteer informed Kerrigan that it was illegible.
first responders are more likely to find a medical alert bracelet than a necklace.
Ben Best—an early pioneer of cryonics—has stated that his necklace went unnoticed by EMS during his stroke in 2023
