"While cleaning out your uncle’s attic you find a chest with a sparkling potion. The attached tag declares drinking this liquid will make you immortal. Your body will be frozen at its current age, and these effects would be final and irreversible. The instructions are clear — the only question is, do you drink the potion? "

"you'll become immune to disease and serious injuries. These effects would be final and irreversible, guaranteeing your existence at least until the heat death of the universe."


I'm not religious. I don't believe in heaven. I think this life is all we get.

The potion would make me immune to disease and serious injuries. That means I could have fun riding my bicycle fast downhill without much worry about serious injuries.

I would think about how my uncle had it and apparently chose not to drink it. Maybe my uncle was smart and knew it would be a bad idea, but I would still say yes.

I would stay the same, but it would not be boring because the world around me would change and I would be able to watch humanity advance and start colonizing other planets.
