[/quote] 1. Set a big bomb in the middle of a desert with a timer counting down to detonate. 2. Make sure noone is near enough to see (observe) the explosion. 3. Wait to see if you can hear the explosion when the time runs out... That way, you can test your theory. If things only exist when being "observed". [/quote] The earth is an observer itself...so that wouldn't work [/quote]

Imagine for a minute if you will; you we're able to disconnect all of your senses absolutely no sight absolutely no sound absolutely no taste absolutely no smell and absolutely no feeling.
Where are you?
Are you still you?
Do you still exist?
Let's say some comes and shoots you in the head while you are laying there wherever.
You don't hear the shot fired you don't feel the bullet penetrating your skin you don't smell the sulfur from the round you don't see into the persons eyes that's pulling the trigger.
Do you still die?
How would you know?
