From Perry Bebbington
Feedback doubts that James Bond could have survived so many bullets coming his way with all of them apparently missing their target (18 May). There is an explanation, of course: those interpretations of quantum physics that propose a multiverse with every possible outcome happening somewhere.
We just happen to live in a universe where Bond never gets hit. This suggests a test for the multiverse interpretation: Bond could put one bullet in a revolver, spin the barrel and fire at his head, and then repeat.
If there is a multiverse, there will always be one universe in which he does not kill himself and will be able to report that he has tried this hundreds of times with no ill effect.
