Would love to hear more about your theory .
The size of our known universe is unbelievable. It is said that it was created some 13.8 billion years ago. And the visible known universe is 46.6 billion light years across, according to scientists.
If your mom and dad didn't copulate on a specific night, and your sperm, out of the hundreds of millions didn't make it to the egg, you wouldn't be alive in this universe, let alone in any of the others, if everything didn't turn out just right.

The whole point of the theory is mute unless there is proof it exists. In order for you to be alive with conscious, there are such a chain of coincidences that it is ridiculous to think it can happen over and over again.

I understand your proposal, but where does the energy and matter come from for each of these imaginary universes?
And where did the energy and mass come from to start the first one to begin with?
However, there is considerable uncertainty about the mass density of all matter (visible and invisible) and energy (through Einstein's E = mc^2 equation). When one studies the movement of matter in and around galaxies, then it appears that up to about 10 times more mass is pulling at the matter (through its gravity) than is accounted for in the visible stars. This is the "missing-mass" problem. If this factor of ten holds throughout the Universe, then the total mass in the Universe would be about 6e52 kg. If the missing mass were mostly in the form of hydrogen atoms (which is not at all clear) then the number of atoms would be about 4e79.

Energy will always exist. Thus time will always exist.
Time moves in one direction. Time travel is not possible.
Whatever caused our universe came from somewhere else.
