Violent Death



Everyone dies. In reality, immortality is nothing more then mortality with no foreseeable end. Unfortunately, having transcended natural deaths, humans will have to face the reality that one day they will perish violently. Except through starvation or dehydration, there will be no “passing away quietly in your sleepâ€, as it will take a lot more then simple physical decay or disease to destroy a truly immortal being – especially if we’ve merged with machines. If you don’t drown in rising water levels or freeze in future ice ages, you can count on shuffling off that mortal coil by either being stabbed, shot, poisoned, immolated, asphyxiated, crushed, electrocuted or even just simply blown up.
If not any of these, the death of a star will happily engulf both you and the planet you happen to live on – wherever that may be. You could of course escape into space – but not much awaits for you there… unless you enjoy drifting in endless darkness until the end of time…
