    How Long do you thin you will Live? Afraid of dying?

    ive had the un pleasurable experience of seeing some people close to me pass away or come very close to passing away in the last year..it has made me think about my own life and how long i wil be here..how my diet and excercise..or lack of effect my health..what i would do if i came down with a serious life threatening illness.what i want them to do with my bodyy when i die ..etc...not fun things to think about..but as the years go buy its something everyone has to eventually deal with?

    does anyone have plans or thoughts on what they are going to do for Zer0 hour?

      Plans for what they are going to do? Most people do not have the opportunity to pick and choose like that.

        I live a super clean and health life so I don’t stress at all about death. I have seen lots of family and friends pass over the years as it’s a part of life. I live every day to its fullest and appreciate everyone and everything.

            I've had the pleasure of being diagnosed with a genetic condition with an median lifespan of 48. The problem is with advances in medicine I'm not so sure I can count on that number being accurate. I like knowing I have a very low chance of hitting old age, really have you seen old people their quality of life suck!!
            Dying doesn't scare me at all, even pain can be managed most of the time. I'm terrified of being kept alive but not physically able to function, that does not seem like a good time. Put a bullet in my brain when my body won't let me walk and talk like normal.

                I think the whole perspective on death changes when you have children.

                      Men on my Dad's side of the family have a tendancy to die by age 65. Although my dad has change that in thepast few years. So being 35 now I guess I am little more then half way through my life.
                      I just accept it, I'm not afraid to die by age 65.

                        There is nothing to fear because death does not exist. There is only infinity. When you die you realize you are just a consciousness looking in on itself. You as a person does not actually exist. You are apart of a collective consciousness. Do you really exist if you are imagined? i think not.

                        it is human nature to think of life and death. but our mere existence shows that only infinity exists. there is nothing to fear either because fear is something made up inside your own head. fear does not actually exist in actual reality.

                            I have become very into these topics. I grew up in a Catholic school here, it is not what you think, it is a 50/50 split with public here.

                            read into the teachings of Buddhism
                            Illuminati
                            Islam
                            Hinduism is next, but it is pretty similar to Buddhists teachings as far as i know.
                            with a combination of quantum physics.


                            i am no expert but if you can step back and take each for a knowledge purpose rather then trying to find absolute meaning it is pretty interesting stuff.

                              Yeah I'm really afraid of dying. But it's something you can do nothing about. So what's the point thinking about something that can't be changed..

                                Actually, scientists are doing a lot about it. A (rich) kid born today (in a 1st World country) has a good chance of dying at the age of 120 or even 150 (according to many); some say that the same kid born 10 years from now might not have to die at all.

                                    Those are pretty much my sentiments as well.

                                    Problem is nobody will do that for you.

                                    A friend of mine with some really nasty health issues just recently bought himself a handgun. He's hoping he'll have enough sense not to use it too soon but his greatest fear is that he'll wait too long.

                                      From what I've read, 150 is potentially very doable and, what's more, that person probably won't look much over 30. It's all about getting human cells to continue to reproduce themselves faster than they die deep into ripe old age. Supposedly though, true immortality is impossible due to certain organs, the brain being the main one, eventually wearing out even in an ideal bodily environment.

                                      Sorry I can't post a link. It's been a long time since I read the article.

                                        It's not exactly on my 10 most important to do list but my fear isnt dying or even aging, it's growing old that I'm terrified of.

                                            1000 billion died before you. Not 1 has come back to complain about death.
                                            Nothing to fear here, move on. Or pass on.. lol

                                              I had heart surgery 2 years ago. Ruined my whole morning but at least I now have a cool Krusty the Clown scar.

                                              To all those that think clean living will help I say HAHAHAHAHA, had my first heart attack ON A RUNNING MACHINE. Never smoked, hardly drink. You will also die, and it's non negotiable and not always fair.

                                              No one sensible worries about dying. You're gone, you won't be giving a shit. Talk to any soldier and they all say the same thing. Dead is fine, if that's hows it gotta be, but seriously fucked up and incapable? THAT'S what you worry about.

                                                    the only thing i worry about is leaving behind everyone, droping dead one day or dying in a car accident with so many things left unsaid/undid. i don't think of it much but it does worry me. i don't want to lose out on the future ahead of me, whatever it may hold. i don't worry about dying when i'm old.
                                                    you don't know you're wearing a leash if you sit by the peg all day..

                                                            My father died when I was nine months old. Once my kid was born, I promised I would do my best to stay around a lot longer than my dad. Ten years later, so far so good. Otherwise, I don't think about it.

                                                                I'm not scared of death, but the pain and agony that is sometimes associated with it. Once I get older, I'll get something in place for euthanasia, for if and when the time comes. If I end up with some terminal illness, just kill me instead of leaving me rot on some shitty hospital bed in pain for 6 months.

                                                                Maybe I'll just rent a plane, and crash it into a mountain side when the time comes. Go out with a bang!

Everyone talking about how they want to die young, all the people racing to post about end of the world scenarios and all the people who can't stop saying how things were better back when.

When you die you realize you are just a consciousness looking in on itself. You as a person does not actually exist. You are apart of a collective consciousness. Do you really exist if you are imagined? i think not.

                                                                  it is human nature to think of life and death. but our mere existence shows that only infinity exists. there is nothing to fear either because fear is something made up inside your own head. fear does not actually exist in actual reality.

Got off chair 10 hiked out to the shoot's to the left past the cornice, and found my self suffocating under a few feet of snow after dropping in. Luckily I broke free just in time. It was a very scary experience. I'd rather break my legs then go through that again.

                                                                            Give western philosophy a shot. They at least go through the effort of trying to explain their theories. Epistemology is a good thing.
                                                                            it is called trying to explain the unknown. there is no explanation that can be proved either way so why you somehow try to discredit what i said makes no sense.

                                                                            what have you added to this thread? you pin pointed the only post that actually offers a view and somehow tried to make yourself sound smart.

                                                                            well you do not.

                                                                            infinity of consciousness is my explanation but you wouldn't understand. The fact that you even mentioned religion or jesus shows what an idiot you are. Explaining consciousness and death does not have to fit into a religion. i do something called... thinking for myself. i dont have a weak mind where i need to fit into a group. you obviously do.

                                                                            yes the universe can be explained in one post. use your head.

The problem is with advances in medicine I'm not so sure I can count on that number being accurate. I like knowing I have a very low chance of hitting old age, really have you seen old people their quality of life suck!!

I'm terrified of being kept alive but not physically able to function, that does not seem like a good time. Put a bullet in my brain when my body won't let me walk and talk like normal.

                                                                                    personally, i don't really know what to think of it - imho, there's only two options:

                                                                                    1) it's all over - in this case, your consciousness is gone and *poof* you are no more. (just like before you were born)

                                                                                    2) your consciousness separates itself from your body/brain and you roam around happily ever after.

                                                                                    ..i'm leaning towards the first, the second is just wishful thinking.

                                                                                      However, I don't want the act of dying to be painful. I'm OK with dying, just don't make my last moments be in agonizing pain.

                                                                                      Actually, about to get a will made where my body is not sent home to American and is burned here instead at the local temple. I don't see any reason to send my body back to a place I don't even live in with an expensive funeral full of people I never hung out with or liked in the first place.

                                                                                      As far as what happens after you die... I don't know. Part of me thinks nothing happens and another part of me thinks my energy may somehow return to whatever source it came from. Only one way to find out.

                                                                                      Comment

                                                                                            I faced the prospect of dieing 2 years ago. It was in February 2008 when I was diagnosed with severe throat cancer and not given a lot of chances.

                                                                                            The surgeon who did the biopsy asked me if I believed in God!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

                                                                                            In July I was told by the surgeons, outside the trauma ward, to go home and make plans for the future. After she had read out a 2 page list of Eva's injuries.

                                                                                            So lived with death a lot recently.

                                                                                            Now Eva's fully fit, I'm going to do my first shoot in nearly 3 yeas and getting a dog so I can take him for walks.

                                                                                            All I wish for is to see my second daughter in a good job. Getting married or partnering up with a great person would be cream on a very thick and juicy cake. Holding my third grandchild would be the cherries of all cherries.

                                                                                            She's 9 and has no interest in boys what so ever.

                                                                                            So looking at the long game.

It's all about getting human cells to continue to reproduce themselves faster than they die deep into ripe old age. Supposedly though, true immortality is impossible due to certain organs, the brain being the main one, eventually wearing out even in an ideal bodily environment.

                                                                                              Sorry I can't post a link. It's been a long time since I read the article.
                                                                                              Quite a number of intelligent people are convinced that practical immortality will be achieved within 20 years.

                                                                                              We probably belong to the first generation in history who might live to be immortal if we live long enough (i.e another 20 years or so). We also probably belong to the last generation in history who might have to suffer death (from old age) and see our loved ones die.

                                                                                              You only have to look at the breakthroughs with stem cell technology to see that lifespans are going to radically increase very soon. The big question is whether the cells of the brain can be rejuvenated and replenished. Every other organ will be grown in a lab within 10 or 15 years, but there's no point in having an immortal body if your brain still crumbles from Alzheimers. But just yesterday scientists found a way of turning adult stem cells into brain cells. So, yes, if you are under 60 and in good health, you are almost certain to live forever (just take more care when crossing the road - might also be a good investment to finally join a gym).

A lot of people are interested in your life expectancy - you, actuaries, insurance companies, banks, doctors, businesses, friends, relatives and loved ones. You can sure take steps to improve your health, such as: quit smoking, quit drinking, quit drugs, go on a good diet and workout. Not only will these things increase life expectancy in the future, but you will also feel better at the present time.

                                                                                                    Unfortunately, you cannot predict events like a sudden death from a car crash. Don't drink and drive and drive carefully. Perhaps you should not think about when you will pass away - you don't know when it will happen. Perhaps you should not bother yourself with such sad thoughts. Good luck.
