Also another thing is that cryonic preservation is certainly possible and done routinely on cell samples to preserve them. Though the thing is that after recuscitation, only a portion of the cells will be viable. The % depends wildly on the cell type though (on HELA cells it's usually 30-60%), and it's very hard if not impossible to preserve and successfully recuscitate entire tissues, nevermind organs or anything as big as a human skull and brain. Though it is certainly possible that cryonic preservation of a brain with minimal damage to the tissues therein, it's not terribly likely. And of course there's absolutely no way to find out if any given preservation was successful in the forseeable future.
