Imagine you wake up in the body of a famous and influential person in the bedroom where that person sleeps in. You know nothing about that individual prior to this incident apart from the fact that they are considered a high profile person.
Your only chance of survival here is to act like that person in front of their family, friends and the public for the rest of the unforeseeable future. How do you ensure you learn to imitate the personality of the individual by arousing the least amount of suspicion?
You don’t. You crack your head and claim to have lost all memory. Let your friends and family do the work for you.
Work smarter, not harder. ;)
Nice try, quantum leaper.
Oh boy
I’m —
First --> Check if I have boobs.
If yes --> Play with them for a bit.
If no --> Proceed to find out who I am.
Am I in someone sane, rational, and smart, like a scientist or humanitarian, or did I wind up as some clueless jackass celebrity? There are wildly different requirements for these.
The latter would probably be easier - but the former would be more resplendent.
Tell everyone that I’ve just watched a Jordan Peterson video and I’m going down the rabbit hole and ask them if they know where I can get my hands on some ketamine. My irrational behaviour and urgent need for fast access to my funds would then seem pretty par for the course.
Jordan Peterson’s really big on maxing out all of one’s lines of credit. Makes sense.
You are now inside the body of a high profile person
ಠ_ಠ
- Try to find out my name, and then read the wikipedia article and recent news
- Fake a stroke or a seizure and be taken to the hospital
- Pretend I have brain damage and remember only foggy details
Fake a stroke. Then memory loss.

read “the tightrope men” by desmond bagley. it’s a novel set in finland that uses exactly this premise.
Why would someone kill me just because I act different? People do that am the time without getting murdered. But relationships end etc. etc., nothing compared to murder.
Just think of it as ‘Game Over’. This is just to ensure the responses stay within the scope of the question.
Honestly, unless it was a simple person or you happen to be somewhat alike to begin with… Not gonna happen.
People can’t change when their life or way of like depends on it, we see it all the time. And that needs far less drastically changes compared to being a different person altogether.
