他们称，在一个无限膨胀的宇宙里，但凡有可能发生的事情终将发生——不是一次，而是无穷多次。预测事件便毫无必要，比如与我们这个宇宙的另外一个世界存在便不成为问题。
Bousso's team have being trying to determine the number of bubbles that exist at any given time and the number of "observers" in each bubble to come up with the relative frequency of observers that can live in one universe compared to the relative frequency of observers who can live in another universe. But the "measure problem" makes calculating this value impossible.
布索的团队已经尝试着努力测试在给定时间内的气泡数目以及在每一个气泡中“观测者”的数目，这样做的目的是对比生活在某一宇宙中观察者的相对频率和生活在另一个宇宙中的观察者的相对频率。但是，“测量问题”使得得到计算结果变得不可能。

According to Bousso and colleagues, the only way to avoid this conundrum is to introduce a cut-off point, which then helps make sense again. By introducing this cut-off, they say there is "a 50-50 chance of the universe ending in the next 3.7 billion years."
据布索和同事所述，唯一能够避免这个难题的途径是引入一个的截点，这样有助于解决问题。通过引入截点，他们说“宇宙将会在接下来的37亿年内有50%的可能性走向毁灭”。
However, Charles Lineweaver from the Australian National University's Mount Stromlo Observatory says Bousso's team are simply imposing a catastrophe for statistical reasons. He says the need for a better statistical solution has led the researchers to a false conclusion about the end of the universe. "Bousso's average life of a universe is a set time, only because that's what happens when you introduce a cut off point to get a reasonable probability," he said.
然而澳大利亚国立大学斯壮罗山天文台的天体生物学家查尔斯-林尼韦弗博士说，仅因为统计方面的原因，布索的研究小组可能正在带来一场灾难。他宣称，寻求找到一个更好的统计学解决方案的必要性使得布索及其同事对宇宙结局做出了错误的结论。“布索对宇宙平均寿命的估计是一个固定的时间，因为只有引入截点来得到一个合理的可能性时，这一切才会发生，”他说。
