    i found an article similar to the topic..
    Suspended Animation | Health & Medicine | DISCOVER Magazine

    In the future, ambulances and trauma wards could routinely include equipment needed to maintain life in a state of suspension until surgeons can repair the damage. “If you get in a car accident today, what are they going to do? Call 911 and put you in an ambulance with a breathing tube and an IV and drive as fast as they can,” Alam says. “Once you get to the hospital, there are not many things we can’t fix anymore. The problem is that by the time most people get to the hospital, it’s too late.” Cooling equipment and portable sulfide gas masks could greatly improve survival rates among critically wounded patients by forestalling blood loss, cellular breakdown, and the buildup of toxins—ravages that trigger permanent disability and death. “If we can slow down life processes so that you don’t require oxygen and the entire body is preserved for a few hours, that buys us precious time to fix the injuries,” Roth says.

    you mean defying the laws of nature. what is there to fabricate when the laws of nature are already there.

    I think the proper term that moy1moy1 was looking for is "tampering". If this were so, "tampering" is relative--it depends on the point of view. From the point of view of say, an animal, the act of wearing clothes by humans is already, in a way, "tampering" with nature--i.e. in nature, creatures don't usually wear clothing--they rely on their natural insulation. Humans use clothing because they cannot "compete" with a bear in mountains in the winter--ma pildi ang tawo kay if wala siya sanina, he will freeze to death, and the bear will just smile and enjoy his thick coat of fur. So in a way, humans have to constantly "cheat" nature in order to survive. Most of the technological innovations that have helped humans thrive in this planet are "cheats". Take note I use cheat not in a negative or derogatory sense--I pertain to certain things that humans do/create in order to survive.

    that's not cheating. it's called adaptation.

    One of the main issues that a person can have, that can be associated with the inability to understand concepts and therefore be ineffective at discourse, is a penchant for taking things too literally.

    Basically you're taking the word "cheat" out of the context of that post I made.

    the concept of this: suspended animation

    sleeping..

    1. it does not guarantee that you're not getting old when you're suspended
    2. can be done only for post operation

    but it can be a break through
