“ | Parallel universes really do exist,
according to a mathematical discovery by Oxford scientists described by
one expert as "one of the most important developments in the history of
science".
In Everett's "many worlds" universe, every time a new physical
possibility is explored, the universe splits. Given a number of
possible alternative outcomes, each one is played out - in its own
universe.
A motorist who has a near miss, for instance, might feel relieved at
his lucky escape. But in a parallel universe, another version of the
same driver will have been killed. Yet another universe will see the
motorist recover after treatment in hospital. The number of alternative
scenarios is endless. [cont]

Hillary
Clinton might be elected to the United States Senate in one
universe, and that universe is what other universes call "Hell." In universes where a moral code holds sway, she is eaten
by pigs on her second birthday.
