The book Altered Carbon and it's sequels takes this idea about 10X further. Like being broadcast to another planet into another body to be hired by a guy to solve his own murder after he's been restored from backup copy.

Sorry to burst your immortal bubble but this will never be possible.
Because if you manage to somehow make a PERFECT duplicate of yourself, PERFECT to the very last molecule and synapse connection, PERFECT in every possible way, literally IDENTICAL, it would still be it's own entity, it will act like you, talk like you, it will BE YOU, but another you.
You will be able to talk about the same memories you have with yourself and he will know your most darkest secrets because they are his most darkest secrets, but there are still going to be two different consciousnesses (damn word), identical, but different, which is a paradox.

If we construct a engineered human body that are immune to diseases, stronger and live around 500 years. If you could download in and out to that. Would you REALLY want to come back in that body you have now?
