If Many worlds is correct, then there is a world where every time you play a slot machine...you hit the jackpot. A world where everytime you play the lotto....you win the jack pot.....every hand of poker you play....you're dealt a royal flush....and so on and so forth.

If many worlds is correct, there is a world in which you do not die. Suppose you are on your death bed. Do you die that instant? In one world you do...in another you live on for another instance. Now lets look at the world where you live on another instance. If many worlds is correct...in one world you will die this instant...in another you will live on for another instance. Now lets look at the world where you live on another instance. If many worlds is correct...in one world you will die this instant...in another you will live on for another instance....and so on...
