   All the observations are consistent with it being true.   
      
   Start with something you are quite familiar with:  Relativity.   
      
   According to Einstein, and everyone seems to agree with him at   
   least this far, not only does your observation/experience with   
   time depend on your perspective, but it's correct for all the   
   different perspectives.   
      
   "It's relative!"   
      
   So two or more people can observe the same event, see it work   
   out totally differently and both be right.   
      
   Both outcomes are real.

   Reality. See above.

   The Multiverse isn't like a house with different rooms,   
   and there's a different version of you in each room...   
      
   Tomorrow you may win the lottery. You may get hit by a   
   meteorite. You may run into someone you haven't seen in   
   decades. You may have super models throw their bodies   
   at you, begging to be serviced. You may, you may, you   
   may...   
      
   All of those are potentialities. No, not with the same   
   probability but all potentialities. So they all exist   
   but you will be conscious of only one.

   Yes.
