How do you think you'll die? And more importantly, if you had to choose, how would you want to die? Do you think you'll die young or middle aged or old?

I'll probably die because I sometimes do less than safe things, and some day I may have an accident from being less than safe. I want to die saving the one I love. I think I'm going to die young, I always think I will, it doesn't scare me anymore even, it's like I've accepted that I'm going to die young just as one accepts that the sun will rise in the morning.

I dont want to be extremly old when I die, I dont wont to be of gone crazy so I still wont to be able to think properly. But then sometimes I want to die younger, then I would have to die in some crazely huge way :p But then again if I killed myself and didnt die naturally I would want to jump off a tall bridge XD

I'll take a bad hit of LSD, then freak out and assume the carpet is a Double McChicken Burger, then choke on the carpet to death.

Never would be nice. Although we'd eventually need inter-stellar travel to avoid the sun's implosion into a black hole and there's nothing we could do about the complete collapse of the universe at the end of time.

I think we'll be extinct long before that happens.

And you're free to think that. I'm a glass half-full kind of guy. With how fast technology is advancing it's only a matter of time before scientists figure out how to map and reproduce the brain's electrical current and can reproduce it in a virtual environment. Effectively eliminating the need for people to have physical bodies.

I will never die.

Certainly possible, but its debatable whether that's even human any more.

Meh, true. A more technical term would be human consciousness. Still better than living in a limited capacity, biological body.

And yes, to whomever mentioned it, this idea is transhumanist in nature.

I really hope I die of a very old age, in a peaceful way. Tbh, and you can disagree and criticize me all you want, but I don't see why I wouldn't die before then. I'm not a very reckless/dangerous person...I'm not overweight, I eat fairly healthy, I don't smoke or drink, I'm not a psycho aggressive driver, etc. (Sure there's always random accidents but I don't put myself in situations where I could get killed that often...)
Anyway, back on topic...
Death scares the hell out of me and I don't want to have to worry about it for a long time. :/ Although if I could live forever, I probably would.

I would like to die of old age with someone I love. But given my track record, i have been shot and stabbed. I have o'd several times before, man i gotta quit drugs. I need a big change for that to happen, but it ain't possible. Getting into fights with your friends drug dealer aint too good for your health, i had two broken ribs. Fighting isnt that good for my health either

Assuming I get to live a full life, I would LIKE to die around age 50 in my sleep.
How I most likely will die? Twenty-something, maybe thirty if I'm lucky enough, of pneumonia or something related to that if my anorexia doesn't get me first. Yep, I'm so optimistic, but it's true.

I'll probably end up dying from being stupid and mixing the wrong drugs in one of those times I just want to get fucked up and don't care what happens, but not necessarily trying to die.

Edit:
Also, if I have a lethal disease and I knew when I was going to die, I'd also make sure I'm fucked up so I suffer as little as possible.

I can't see myself getting old. I've always thought that I'd die young. In some accident that could have been avoided by a single difference in time and place. But, If by some miracle, I do grow old. I want to be one of those cool old guys with a milked over eye telling the younguns stories about my success. And randomly die in my sleep with a cigarette in my hand and a smile on my face.

I'll probably die doing something completely normal, like going to a baseball game and a stray ball cracking my skull.

How do I want to die? I don't really care.

Mid 70's is what i would hope to make it to, if longer then happy days, ut only if i was entally aware, as for dying, in my sleep is the way i want to go and in no pain at all, with all my goodbyes said, (hopefully)

My death has played many times in my head cause to me its a interesting concept. But I think I'm gonna die in a helicopter crash somewhere in the middle east (I plan on enlisting as a aerial gunner for helicopters in the Air Force)

And getting your behind impaled by a hot spear isn't cool either. Unless if you are a masochist... at least you will die happy.

I agree. It kind of takes away the fun in what you see on movies and televisions. If anyone could get a free pass from pain, i'm sure most people would take it.

Why is this thread in ramblings of the wise again?

i would like to die doing something heroic like saving a couple of kids from a burning building.
knowing my luck i will die at the age of 20 from being hit by a car whilst helping some daft old bat across the road :L

Probably some horrifically stupid accident, or saving someone else.

There'll be a gun in my hand and some crazy ideas in my head.

Or that.

If I could choose, it'd be saving someone else no matter how much it hurt.
I will die when it's my time to die, whenever that may be.

If I could choose how to die it would be suicide, only when I have nothing left to lose tho. If anyone is going to be responsible for my death, it will be me :yes:

As for age and everything... I think living till about 50 would suit me just fine provided shit doesn't hit the fan before then:D
