I think the point of the experiment is that no one can see inside the box. which is hardly the same when it comes to the life of a celebrity.

I was involved in a thread on the BTS side concerning whether Doris day was alive or dead.
Thread
Given the following situation:
You don't know whether a person is alive or dead.
You do some research and find out that the person is alive.
The probabilitys of the person being alive are the same as being dead.
Given those assumptions:
A little hypothesis of mine is that it can be regarded as waves of probability like that in the famous Schrodinger's Cat thought experiment. The person is simultaneously both alive and dead. When you conduct your research and find out further information as to whether the person is alive or dead you have in essence "looked inside the box" thus collapsing the waves of probability yielding one of the two states. Alive or Dead. I also think that the universe divides upon such an action. One universe alive another where the person is dead.
My questions are thus:
1) Is this an example of quantum effects on the macro scale?
2) What are your general thoughts concerning my little hypothesis?
