This is a TERRIBLE idea. The unintended consequences are going to be swift, sure, and devastating.
Once again, just because we CAN do a thing, does not mean that we SHOULD do a thing.

We die for a reason. This planet is already over-populated as it is.
Think about it for just one minute. Think about every book, tv show, or movie, you have EVER read or seen that covers re-animation of the dead.
It NEVER ends well.
The practical applications of this "proposed research" will turn out to be a HUGE mistake.

In answer to your question. I wouldn't want to bring anyone "back".
I can guarantee you, beyond any doubt, they would not be the same person they were before they died.

Again, this is a really, REALLY BAD idea.

Eye-catching title for a page with an inconsequential story and a ton of clickbait. I wouldn't worry about it too much, if I were you.

This is madness! Did these scientists learn nothing from the movie, Pet Sematary?

Rational Wiki reports themindunleashed.org is a pseudoscientific, woo-peddling, clickbait ... data from studies and present it as scientific fact for their own gain. [themindunleashed.org] IS also themindunleased.com

All the murdered Native Americans.

There is not much evidence that this would work. However, in fun, I would bring back the Framers of the U.S.A. constitution so they could see what happened and interpret it for us in light of the modern world.

No one deserves to come back.

Although I don't think there is anything substantiated in this.
But if I had to pick a person, it would be Carl Sagan.

It's a misleading article. It is really only about bringing people out of comas. People in comas are not completely dead despite what the article implies by calling them "brain dead".

Bob Ross

Boy would that be a rude awaking!

This would have to be very recently dead people and thus they aren't dead yet.

Someone recently dead. Zombiefied corpses, even thinking ones would stink. And how long, if possible, would regeneration of rotting skin, muscle, etc would it take.

This would be a privately funded study. No institute of higher learning would touch this or ever get approved for something this ridiculous. Obviously this is a waste of precious stem cells.

Hitler. Duh.

So how come I cannot get a reconstituted pancreas to cure my diabetes

Mufasa. Because Simba is a dick.

would use it so no need to go in the first place

Trump's brain.

here is a better source and there are a LOT more reasons to doubt than to trust, especially considering that no animal tests have been done, and success would rely on blood flow to the brain, which in a dead person simply is not happening. note that the proposed subjects are brain dead but certainly on life support. nobody is digging up corpses here. still, i wouldn't, pardon any inherent pun, hold my breath.

If through cloning we could bring back Albert Einstein then that would be good.

Christopher Hitchens

ridiculous "announcement" and if the question were asked without it, i might be inclined to play, but no, not with even the hint of a presumption that this is true. sorry.

Who really thinks this would work? Birdseye pioneered the frozen vegetables picked fresh from the vine. Veggies like peas were in that group. It would be easier to un-freeze the peas and attach them back onto the vines than it would to use stem cells to bring back the dead. Frankly I don't think either idea would work.
