I theoretically could die at any moment, and frankly the only reason I would want to live forever is to observe. Especially with the current rate of technological advancement. Did you know there are visual implants that now allow blind people to see (very limited, but still a huge deal)? Did you know that various militaries including the US have weapons that fire just by thinking, and have already designed a few laser cannons/guns? The US also has satellites that are way beyond what google earth has employed -- They can see THROUGH barriers which would normally block vision, e.g. roofs. I would love to observe what happens to the world, I'd love to be immortal. Otherwise honestly -- I'll be happy to die of old age with my only sad feelings being I don't get to see what happens after I die. Although, certain organizations and scientists already have secret technology and procedures to cause people to live longer -- (Various factors to the length of life have been discovered). So yes, I'd have to say I'd rather not die, but I'm afraid that I'll be extremely lucky to see 2100.
