I wouldn’t want to live forever knowing the downsides. Wouldn’t those in whatever positive afterlife they believe in eventually get bored?
I will except my Death when it's my time. Immortal is a foolish goal. What are you going to do when the universe becomes uninhabitable for life?
I don't want to live forever.
No length at all.
If it turns out to be true that the universe will end in the heatdeath where nothing is left I definitely do not want to be the last one standing.
I think I'll rather die today than live forever.
Besides, immortality without invulnerability is a curse.
2:26 They weren't blood " donors" that implies volunteering, they were victims.
Also his name was " Innocent" how ironic.
Darth Plagueis the expert on that - kinda.
I absolutely love that billionaire dude who thinks he's going to beat ageing, dude just go to therapy, you're gonna get old and die like the rest of us
He reckons that at 40 or whatever he has the body of an 18 year old and yet he looks like a 40 year old man still, lol
the cold hard fact is NO one can beat death!
I thought Chuck Norris did.
Jackie Chan did
Not true!!!!
chuck norris 100% did
Chuck Norris roundhouse kicked death back to where it came from
Wow, people's survival instincts are insane! 😲👏
A waste of time...the Grim Reaper will always come for you when your time is up. Death is part of the package deal with Life.
They really should watch Puss in Boots the Last Wish before laughing in the face of death
That movie was awesome. It made me cried more than once
It’s more important to add life to your years than years to your life.
That being said. Assuming all these exercises, pills, procedures etc. actually extend your life. To what degree do they stop you from living your life? Is the extra 50 to 100 years worth losing some of life’s guilty pleasures? Just saying.
Exactly. We should all live healthy but spending 90% of your day taking pills and having massages and whatnot because you're terrified of dying just means you're living 10% of a life.
It's stupid too because some smokers live to 100, some athletes die at 50. There is no surefire way to live as long as humanly possible no matter what crap you put in your body. My nans friend got to 96 and basically all she ever ate was pies and cake.
@@mrcheesemunch plus sometimes one is taken off this earth by some unfortunate accident. When I was 22 3 if my friends died in 3 separate accidents within a 6 month time period. The first 2 were 3 weeks apart. We all need to look forward to the future but we must also remember to live in the present and realize there may not be a tomorrow
The problem is with the invasive medical procedures and restricting your diet to IVs and vitamins, does it matter anymore that your life is extended?
Those who wish to escape death will often find themselves visited by it sooner than they think.
Seeing stuff like this reminds of a line I've seen before...."aging isn't one tenth as scary as the shit people do to try and avoid it"
Ive never understood the wanting to live 4ever
It's the fear of the unknown. We don't know what happens after life but eventually you kinda accept it as you age.
They have a good life and want to keep it
In Death there are no accidents no coincidences no mishaps and no escapes..
In other words, you can't cheat Death.
In 100 years these will all be memes
The Young Pope was awesome. Jude Law crushes it. Also, one of the best intros to a show ever.
Death is a part of life.
i thought it was a part?
@@gevorg1989 yeah you’re right.
“Is it possible to learn these powers?”
Not from a Jedi.
Thank you for the update, WatchMojo..!! 9:28 I wonder how she came up with that idea in the first place. 🥶
So basically: what insane things that people in power would do to keep said power."
Number 4 screams Pantheon
The irony is that Bryan Johnson looks even older than 45 😂. His hair is giving box dye from CVS
Can’t I just be bitten by a vampire?
No matter what the death is inevitable always plus
Death smiles at us all, the best we can do is smile back.
I have lived long enough to realize that at some point your actually kinda looking forward to it.
Queen sang it best in the movie "Highlander" "who wants to live forever?"
Really a tough theme. I myself often think about death. I kinda wanna live longer to see what happens with the world but i also wanna know what death is like. It just interests me to see those things for myself, What will the world be like? What's going to happen to us? Will there be Kemonomimi in our future? Or What is the feeling of death? Are you really gone? is there some sort of afterlife? Do you simply loose all your memories and get reborn? All those questions are questions i ask myself like once a week. But ain't a way in hell I'm gonna take like 7000 Supplements a day. I'd be eating all day every day on those.
When I was 40 people thought I was in my early 20's. I often had to show my drivers liscense to prove my age. That's genetic. All of the men in my family look young when they are older.
Yeah I was turned down for cigarettes once. But that was ages ago lol and one guy thought I was using a relatives id and asked what school I go to. Another one said he’d be my hookup anytime LOL. Like it was a favor to sell a 30 something a pack of cheap beer. That was when I didn’t have a hubby or responsibilities though. All the drinking caught up though. Now it’s just the standard Id scan they do to anyone.
2:40 Hey! It's Ozymandias, from Watchmen
At the end. Death claims us all.
Bryan johnson i will aggree to some of it notion which diet and training but the amount of perscription is obserd
i'll never understand people who want to live longer
even after finding someone who makes life worth living, i still don't feel very strongly about living a long life
maybe they see life very differently than others do
or maybe i just have an overly negative perception of life for someone m age
Bryan Johnson, I'm only 2 years younger than you and have never had any of the expensive therapy you do, and yet I still look 10 years younger than you.
How many years they waste to try to live longer. Ironic.
7:15 Thank to the horror video game SOMA it’s somehow possible.
Edit 10:23 I wasn’t aware that ‘Castle Arrest’ is even possible.
Number 4 sounds like that batman beyond episode
Collect all 7 dragon balls 🤷🏾♂️
Qin Shi Huangdi died of mercury poisoning because he thought it would make him immortal!
I barely want to live this life…I would never want to live forever
Gave like cause of Arthurs Tuberculosis
Makes me wanna play red dead redemption again :'(
how voldemorty of them
Wow.
100 daily supplements? Dude, that doesn't sound healthy. That's not good for your kidneys, probably
Why isn't there a Pope Innocent movie? He sounds like a fascinating monster
Dr Mike should give his take on these methods....
death comes for us all - 1990 master splinter
He would drink the blood of children. I eat little babies. It keeps me young. There's nothing innocent about this pope.
8:56 I remember this series. I was laughing at how over the top it was.
9:28 Isn't that the antagonist in Castlevania Bloodlines?
"This is why i be so freash, im trying to beat life coz i cant cheat death" jayz
People are looking to stay young forever
The story about the pope does not appear in any reliable source. Where did you get it?
I was surprised it was a YT channel they quoted and not some documentary that aired on a historical channel
Once sin entered the world, there's nothing we can do. We can be healthier and live longer. That's all we can really do.
Not with all the money in this world can stop death it’s something that is going to happen to us all fact
I'm 168 years old, and my secret is pizza and ice cream.
Qin Shi Huang tops for consuming Cinnabar
Why would you want to deprive yourself of the sweet release of Death
Immortality is certainly not a good idea, because nothing will be exciting in the world as you age with it without dying. Can’t we just invent something that keeps our youth instead? We still die but we could at least look young throughout life.
“Every self will taste death. You will be paid your wages in full on the Day of Rising. Anyone who is distanced from the Fire and admitted to the Garden, has triumphed. The life of this world is only the enjoyment of delusion.” (Quran, 3:185)
"For the wages of sin is death, but the free gift of God is eternal life in Christ Jesus our Lord." Romans 6:23 Thank you Jesus
They had to show Arthur Morgan :( RIP
Sounds like a bunch of vampires to me!!⚰️🧟♀️
if I wanted immortality I would want to be bitten by a vampire.
I've heard orphan tears work
"O My servants who have believed! Truly My earth is spacious, so worship Me alone! Every soul shall taste death, then to Us you will be returned." Qur'an 29:56-57
6:08 wow spoilers /s
Has anyone tried vampirism or selling their soul to the devil?
A lot of stupid people is all I’m seeing 😢
do you fear death jack sparrow?
davy jones
In the 1993 movie Hocus Pocus, the witches wanted to consume the lives of children so that they could be young and beautiful forever
Have these fools never heard of Shiv Palpatine?
Most of these are blood related. Not sure why that is scary.
No. 3: you didn't mention the years
The Pope: do historians validate the transfusion history? Is quoted YT channel scientific and trustworthy?
Immortality is a curse.
Take a shot every time he horribly mispronounces Elizabeth Bathory’s name… good fucking lord
OK so way blizzard I see.
They all sound like SNAKE OIL!
Repentance and baptism in Jesus name and walking in a newness of life ensures immortality
Life in This Sick Twisted Miserable World is Not Worth That Much! Especially if You Take into Account the Wonderful Life that is Waiting Beyond the Grave, if You Believe in That Sort of Thing. Which I Do!
Seek help
Hello good afternoon
They have a raspy voice. :/ I do red light but I’ve wondered if it’s going to backfire.
Matthew 16:25.
Catholic Church at is finest
Nobody gets out alive.
I want to die when am old I do not want immortality and am thankful am not
To be honest Pope Innocent the 8th should have been excommunicated (I think that's what it's called) for that horrible stuff he did too/with with those teens body/blood😓🤮
They slick tryna normalize Andrenochrome smh
Where you will be spending Eternity?
John 3:16 - “For God so loved the world, that He gave His only begotten Son, that whoever believes in Him shall not perish, but have eternal life.
Rich people are weird 😂
Are 70 injections a day worth what it gives?
Minecraft Bedrock Private realm, current mods are texture pack and guns. Hmu for invite
Pope not so innocent
Who Want's To Live Forever?
Me. Dying is terrifying.
Me too.@@FlowerPup_AZ

Atheists all of them even the pope
Brian Johnson gotta go. He’s awful
