D: Hi guys!
So today we're gonna be talking about immortality.
The concept of it,
what would you do with it?
For some reason you woke up today
and, ah, let's say a god figure or a freaking genie came along and told you
Genie: Hey, by the way
you're immortal now!
H: Have we tested this?
yeah, how do we know?
D: You didn't know this cuz you never died before
but you're not gonna die.
He pulls out a gun and shoots you in the head.
S: Well, I pull out mine first and shoot him.
*weird airy laugh????*
D: You wake up and there's blood marks on your forehead, but you didn't die.
S: Wait, can I still feel pain?
D: Yeah.
S: Oh my god, that's terrible.
I've been, probably, in so much agony.
D: Could you imagine man constantly being able to die?
That would actually be so bad. If you're stuck in a rubble somewhere and you can't escape.
H: Oh my gosh...
Would you be able to regenerate though?
Let's say if you cut your finger off-
Okay, got it, cool.
D: You would have to die in order to regenerate.
So if you cut your finger off, it's not gonna cut pop-up out,
but if you shoot your head, and you die, your body's going to be refreshed and new.
H: So it's like Ajin, okay, got it
So what are we doing? What are we doing with this immortality?
D: Just imagine with me guys for a second like you-
you wake up and you have the immortality.
You now know that you're immortal.
your whole 80-year life plan is thrown out the window
now you have to look towards infinity instead of 80 years. What do you do?
H: Hmm...
Ah, I got time to waste, let's go play games!
S: Take literally all the drugs all at once. I want to see what happens. *There's two types of people...*
*cute and weird laugh*
Would it be a good trip or would it be a terrible one?
H: I think that would be a terrible trip, Steven.
S: Why? All at once? But they all cancel each other out. All the uppers and downers - just like - neutral. *Because that's how drugs work, Steven...*
D: So one of you would go completely lazy and do nothing. The other one would start doing...
very, very dangerous things, because you can.
S: Yeah!
H: Steven, where are you gonna get the money to buy drugs, all those drugs?
S: Oh, that's a good point.
Yeah, how would I make money? Wait, so if I sell body parts...
Do they regenerate or just am I not able to die?
D: You can regenerate them.
S: OoOh..
Sell organs on the black market.
D:That would be very painful though.
You will need to come up with the proper system so that you can sell them
and find someone you can trust with your immortality.
H: Yeah
You have to tell someone cuz you can't anesthetize yourself and then take it out yourself and then , you know
That wouldn't be... so you have to tell someone. The moment
you tell someone it's gonna go downhill. The moment someone knows about your immortality. It's gonna be a bad news for you
Cuz the news, the rumor will spread that you are immortal
S:True.
Mmm. That's a good point.
H: Yeah, they're gonna track you down
They're gonna tie you up in a basement, and the- they're gonna harvest your organ for eternity.
S: That makes sense
D: Well for as long as they live, so more like 80 years.
S: Okay, that's a good- he does raise some good points, like, gotta be careful who you tell about this
So, I guess probably into a profession that requires you to be dangerous, I guess?
In a dangerous situation because they usually pay a lot, like the power line technician.
Or something like that, cuz you'll definitely feel like, "holy balls," but ya won't die...
*another cute laug-*
H: Would you try to be enrolled in military service or would that be a viable option?
Cuz you're an immortal soldier now.
I guess, but then wouldn't the government just steal you away?
Would they have to know that I'm immortal?
"Oh, wow, this entire platoon of people died except for this guy. I wonder why. Hey soldier, how'd you survive?" "Well, you see I- I- I-"
"I-I'm immortal"
*lauuughteeerrr yaaaayyY*
H: Would you have to change your identity?
Every now, and then, again 300 years. D: You would, right. 10 years from now,
you look exactly the same while they start getting old and gray. That's gonna be weird, man,
they're gonna start questioning you. H: What would you say? S: "I get a facelift every five years,
How else do I still look young?"
H: There is a beautiful thing called "botox," guys? Um...
You could even become a cult leader, or a god
figure not like, "God" God, but you could be a leader of a cult, right? This person hasn't aged,
he's immortal. D: Right, but then you would be publicizing that you're immortal.
H: Yeah, but if you have enough followers by the point,
I'm pretty sure you'd have enough power in the political scene...
D: Okay, but tell us, do you think you could be a cult leader?
H: I wouldn't, but you know, maybe maybe at one point I would say "this whole thing is boring. My life is boring.
I need to do something more...
fun..." and you know that's-
D: Let's trick people and take their money!
*another weird group chuckle, c'mon guys*
Okay, hypothetical situation. (Mm-hmm.)
Would you marry someone you love when you know that you're immortal, or would you try to cut ties soon enough?
H: Ummm,
marriage...
S: No, cut them off really fast. Like, you're gonna live through the heartbreak, but you can't kill yourself.
So like you'll just be in pain forever. It sucks...
The only thing that kills worse than guns is heartbreak love is built up over a lifetime of support and dedication. *chill, I came here for fun*
H: But then,
marriage. When you're talking about marriage, it's not like we are bound to live together for until your loved one dies.
How do I put this people... Get divorced. D: So you might stop loving them after a while?
H: Yeah, who knows. S: But haven't you ever seen those, like, 90 something year old couples?
H: Okay, even if you're not immortal,
there's a chance that your loved one might die in the next car accident, right? Or
your loved one might get cancer, and there's no cure. S: It happens,
it's not- it's not like "oh you have immortality and that's why you're gonna get hurt."
D: Oh, wow, you guys both have like polarizing views on this. H: But I'm telling you it shouldn't change whether you should love someone or not.
S: But at the same time how many times will it take before you finally say enough and try to kill yourself and then just end
up in a gross ice-cream mess on the floor, you know, it hurts. It stings like a bullet wound
How many times can you live through this before saying that's enough? H: I mean, I'm already over my ex. So
D: True, but I'm conscious
S: It's just over the course of a literal infinite lifetime,
how many times will it take before you finally break down and say this is enough and just totally just stop it?
H: How long are you gonna mourn for your loved one? Three years? If it's long, it'd be 10 years sure.
But it's minimal compared to infinite life- eternity. Right? So your pain isn't gonna last long.
It's not like you're gonna live with the pain for the entire rest of your life.
D: Yeah, but the pain will be so intense though. H: Why would it be intense? It'd be minimal.
H: Do you still remember, uh,
back in your childhood, that one time you got stung by a bee? S: Yeah several times.
H: Do you still feel painful and traumatized by it?
S: No, but that's physical pain. Emotional and mental pain lasts a lot longer because the body heals,
but the mind doesn't. D: The mind forgets. S: Yeah, the mind forgets but they will always have an imprint.
I don't have any scars from like the all these wasp stings or broken bones throughout my life,
but I do remember like all the traumatic pets that somehow ran away, but actually turned out they died, because I forgot to feed them!
I'm so sorry, Mr. Fish *this suddenly took a very dark turn omfg*
D: What is up with us and getting depressing all the time? Why can't we be "oh,
eternity?! Let's build my own farm and it'll grow bigger and bigger over time cuz I'll never die!"
H: Huh... D: Like why can't we be happy like that? S: Cuz realism. Life is all about death.
We'd live to die. D: Yeah, the mortality rate of humankind is 100%, so-
*final laugh*
All right, well thank you guys so much for watching this video. S: And don't forget if you liked this vide-
Hosh I forgot the words. What words- wha-what do I do if someone if someone likes the video?
H: CUT. *snap* *final laugh again-*
