harry_a Posted August 20, 2011 Report Posted August 20, 2011 Watching this week's episode of Torchwood's "Miracle Day" made me think this might be a good question... scenario: for some reason everybody in the world is essentially immortal. no matter what you do to yourself you cannot die. society is also too worried about this to police it's normal laws properly so you also have carte blanche to do anything you like without legal or social repercussions. what would you do? provisos: anything which would leave you as an immobile vegetable is going to lose your suggestion points we can also assume that the immortality is permanent so if doctors can seal off the injury so you still work afterwards you can assume you won't die at a later date of your injuries. give it a few days and i'll judge what i think is the most interesting reply and you'll get a fantastic prize which i've fished out of my "man drawer" (more on that later), and of course.. you get the honor of choosing the next question!

PurpleMonkey Posted August 20, 2011 Report Posted August 20, 2011 to do anything you like without legal or social repercussions. what would you do? i would do a sh!t jump with an 8.5 Blade on a hill, with no helmet and no insurance, video it, post it up on here:eek: This ones for you Jack:D Quote
fibre Posted August 21, 2011 Report Posted August 21, 2011 Turn downhill buggying into an olympic sport...... Quote
Atavar Posted August 21, 2011 Report Posted August 21, 2011 I'd spend a year in training at Cheddar Gorge for the cheese rolling contest. Then i would win it, all, and become a great cheese chasing athlete. Quote
skfflyer Posted August 21, 2011 Report Posted August 21, 2011 Well after reading cantbebothered's little whoopsie with a screwdriver i would probably create a new genre of kiting "power kiting with power tools"..... felling trees with a chainsaw whilst landboarding, spot welding buggys whilst riding it in gale force conditions....you get the idea. just think once people start combining their kiting skills with their choice of power tool and their imagination then you would have some killer footage for youtube. hell, it may even get to be an olympic sport!

The Geoff Posted August 21, 2011 Report Posted August 21, 2011 Do we still feel pain? Do we heal? I mean, if injuries stick around and we feel pain, as in Torchwood, then I'd be far more careful than I am now. Death's a doddle, but eternity with a bad back and knackered knees? Not sure I fancy that. In fact, I think I'd be out to find a way of becoming permanently and irreversibly unconscious. I'm thinking a steamroller over my head, then place the remains behind a jet engine on full afterburner. Quote
Spock Posted August 21, 2011 Report Posted August 21, 2011 i was thinking about seeing how much of yourself you could cut off before you cease to exist, have no conciousness or even a soul. either that, or steal a few bottles of water from lidl seeing as the cops aren't looking. Quote
Buckleheid Posted August 22, 2011 Report Posted August 22, 2011 i would do a sh!t jump with an 8.5 Blade on a hill, with no helmet and no insurance, video it, post it up on here:eek: This ones for you Jack:D whats the fucking point in this post? Quote
PurpleMonkey Posted August 22, 2011 Report Posted August 22, 2011 whats the fucking point in this post? my thoughts exactly when i saw your post!!!!! My post was a joke answer to the OP, obviously, you are just a humourless dour Scotsman,who did not notice the big smiley face. Also, if you bothered to read the question about doing something you whatever you wanted, regardless of social repercussions, you may have understood, if not liked my answer. I suggest you go into a quiet room and search for your sense of humour, it is probably under the sofa somewhere. Quote
Bigmp Posted August 23, 2011 Report Posted August 23, 2011 I would strap a jet engine to the back of a buggy, and some skids to the bottom (maybe a seat belt too) and go find me a beach. Then I would light it up and go have some fun over the pond, up some hills, down some dales. Quote
Cafe.Racer Posted August 23, 2011 Report Posted August 23, 2011 I'd be a millionaire. Just like everyone else on my street. Quote
