The concept of Quantum Superposition

The concept of Quantum Superposition

Everyone is familiar with the Schrodinger cat's experiment. The gist is, until you open the box we are unsure whether the cat is alive or dead. To put it in simple terms, without an observation we can't tell the state of the cat. So the cat exists in 2 states (Quantum superposition). Now replace the cat with a human. What happens if he's in a box without no observation and other factors to disturb him. The problem is, the person's mind becomes the observer in this case. So he won't be able to visualize the quantum states. But what happens if we prevent his mind from observing?
