Will you chose it. Or not?

So I just wanted to see what this would turn out like.
The point is you have a potion that you got and when you drink it, you have a 50% chance of dieing, or living for ever at what ever age and with/what ever you want.
What will you decide. Are you a risk taker? Comment below or vote on the poll.

Hmm. I chose to take it, but I would first ask my friend/enemy to have a drop. ;3

No. I don't want to be immortal.

<-- Waits until he's on his deathbed to drink potion.

50/50 sounds like pretty good odds to me.

But what if you die in a freak accident and never get a chance to drink it?

Well, this question is very debatable. If you somehow become immortal you would have to keep your self occupied for the rest of the Earth, even longer if you cannot die whatsoever. You would have to watch all your loved ones die as time goes by. You will be stared at and tested by scientists because you simply will not age. Some people may even attempt to kill you.

Who knows, you could love being immortal or you would find it a blessing to be dead. All in all I would choose not to.

why wouldnt i take that? as long as its like real immortality not like you never age unless you are hit by a car or something dumb like that i could learn so much and see so much the risk is infinitely more acute then the reward. i can moderate emc forever muahahaha!

I wouldn't drink it. Living forever doesn't seem like such a good thing to me.

If you live forever, you can see what the future holds. You can die if shot In the head or hit by a car but you have the power to keep who you truly love alive.

You know what, I do need to know one thing. Can I choose to die at any point after I become immortal?

I would be more willing to drink it if the choices were:
A) don't drink it and become immortal
B) drink it and have a 50/50 chance of mortal life v. death

Was going to say that. If you chose you make your self die, it will take 2 years for you do die.

For B), what's the point then. The point of this is you can be immortal or die on the spot

I really don't want to be immortal. It's the time limit that makes things fun.

I don't want to be immortal. That would suck. What if there was a nuclear war and you were the only one left alive.

Imma wait until im like 80 to drink it

So I'm either tortured for all eternity or die if I say yes?
Well no, in that case...

then you won the nuclear war you guys are all pessimists think about all the great things you can accomplish you could solve every quantum conundrum ever. metaphysics would be an open book to you. you could be the go to on any subject the greatest military tactician, the most successful peacekeeper/broker, or even (if you are volt) the foremost economist. you can make so many friends along the way and have so many stories to tell that you are literally the dos equis guy (most interesting man in the world) i see nothing wrong with living forever
