Adam Ruins Death: Opening

That sounds like a real bad time

literally just happened to me.

OMG same

no one brought this up...are you proud of this comment?

I am very proud of this comment

Mine are in overdrive already

Lol

Yes 👀

Mine too.

😐

Lmao

Thanks venti

You only say that because all you've ever experienced is being alive. You may like not being alive even more, but you'll never know because you're afraid of change. Even when you experience not being alive, your cognitive dissonance may keep telling you that you don't like it as much. PS: please realise that this comment is nothing more than a dark joke. There is no actual recommendation in this comment. Please delay that experience as long as you reasonably can. Okay, THAT was a recommendation.

Hey, you're free to do it for the rest of your life, so there's that

yaaaaaaaaay..... Thanks Adam. *cries in the corner*

There was a king who had a ring. It would make him happy whenever he was sad, and sad whenever he was happy. This was inscribed on the ring: _THIS TOO SHALL PASS_

Strangely I get the opposite, I am infinitely more scared of death when I am suffering because I am unable to stop thinking about it. When I’m happy I can live in blissful denial.

The biggest no in the universe

Loooooool

Hahaha🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣so true

Ask yourself this: is the universe sufficient to have created itself?

It is I and it’s so big, it exists outside the universe.

Think he was gonna follow up with "let's live life to the fullest"

it'd be a great opener for me

Thats not Genius writing thats Adams writing

Makary Metzger no difference lol

Andrew W Good 4 U

I hear becoming honorable samurai has a similar effect.

The illusions we're given have that effect. We are commanded to be happy in world that has so little happiness.

Andrew W Hey man, I hope you have more bright days than dark days, life is tough enough with depression keeping you down

Life is depressing. Death is nothingness, liberation from all fear and pain.

That's a REALLY good idea

I already did that as a speech... buuut it got interupted by an earthquake drill.

tell us

How did it go

As a heaven and hell believer, this bothers me none. But I suppose it makes sense for it to bother you lovely atheists. Nice paintings, by the way.

Joseph Neira why would you make this about religion?

@@somerandomanarchist3084 That's a stupid question. This entire thread is about death. Only a fool or a liar would pretend that religious views have no relevance here. So are you a fool? Or a liar?

Joseph Neira that’s not what I’m saying, I’m saying that the comment you commented on has nothing to do with religion.

@@somerandomanarchist3084 Well I seek out depressed commenters.

So true

Same also at the literal same age

I think you're still 8

I had it a couple years back and I started crying. Its so hard to make others contemplate death. The best way I found to make other people contemplate death is by saying: "Think about how Life was before you were born, its gonna be like that but for eternity and there's nothing you can do about it"

Howdy, Stranger! Sorry to message all these years later, but I have to agree with you. What you describe, in some aspects, is what folks call "Optimistic Nihilism"; The belief that, since there is no inherent meaning to the universe, it means that we can give ourselves meaning through our actions and relations with the world around ourselves. "It's only after we've lost everything, that we are free to do anything."

Yeah, but it did squat for my Depression.

Just have someone scream YOLO at the top of their lungs...

I'd have everyone watching Ask A Mortician videos

@I'm Flying Blind me too.

Funny you should say that upon realization what this episode is about

Same here.

You had a really strong feeling that you were going to sleep and never waking up...

Air Matt me too

Same 20 minutes before I go to bed well to try to sleep because I'm already lying in my bed

It's liberating for me actually. And keeps me level headed and not stressed out as much. It gives me peace of mind that all this will pass for me. I won't ever have to deal with stress again. And hopefully I'll tell added some happiness to the people I loved so they can enjoy the ride longer even though I'm not around

+Erwin Müller this. being dead isn't what scares me. its forgetting the time i have here. forgetting my family and friends, and hell, video games.

Matthew Kirk I more meant that I'm terrified of the process of dying. Being sick, having tubes in my body, having pain, etc. That is terrifying for me. But I have no fear of being dead, because if I'm dead I will not feel or experience anything.

+Erwin Müller well like Adam said enjoy your life now and who knows maybe you'll die quickly or maybe you won't even know what happen, most of the time when people die in car accidents it happens so fast that the brain can't process anything so they don't even know that it happened, it's quite depressing but there's really no positive way of saying that death is ever easy

+Erwin Müller I feel exactly the same way

+Matthew Kirk you won't forget. You won't exist.

Refer to my comment that is not a reply for that in here for that info

+morning morality no there are aging resistant animals you can still kill them and they will die when the sun goes bad anyway

+J.M. Alexia do or do not. there is no try.

+Karlis Berzins dont you mean anti aging? age resistant implies that it has a longer life span than other animals, but things like the water bear have never been recorded to die of natural aging, only disease and that sort of stuff.

I get it

Hell yeah dude

Well to me it kind of sounded like something a villain would say to his victims telling them how they can't escape death.

Waffle Cones there's also the philosophers stone from alchemical history ands it's many depictions in different media (HP, FMA, The immortal Nickolas Flamel, DC, etc)

Very true

Nothing is the most likely answer to this question.

@I dont't know yeah nobody knows what happens after you die. Grow up and quit with the scare tactics. Try to think outside your little box for once

Only if you're raised with the possibility of an afterlife. But in some countries, most people are raised taking it for granted that death is preceded by nothingness, so to them, it's just a matter of accepting that.

Hey, the sooner we realize we are going to die, the better. It opens up a whole avenue of acceptance.

not really, the thought of death has plagued me for the last 10 years and I am nowhere near acceptance

+DarkAnimaYT yea same here for about the same amount of time. It hasn't gotten better, there are something things where it's truly better to live your life and be happy to be ignorant of. I cam upon this truth very early in life and I was terrified to tell anyone why I was terrified because I thought no one else knew because they were acting so non-nonchalant about life and I thought they were blessed to be ignorant, but they weren't, they just tried their hardest to never think about it.

+noooooooooooooooooo One person dies of starvation every 3.6 seconds, according to UNICEF, and it is typically a child under the age of five So roughly 63 people starved to death as you watched this video

+noooooooooooooooooo 69.2

SS Kan 1.8 humans die every second. 3 minutes and 46 seconds in the video. 226 seconds in 3:46. 1.8 x 226 = 406.8 Unless you were making a 69 joke. In which case I approve.

There are only two categories in life. Things you can change and things you can't change. If you don't like something, but you can change it, do so. If you don't like something, but can't change it, the only way is to accept it and move on. The sooner, the better.

LukeSumIpsePatremTe the thing is i was thinking of this before i saw this and ya u are right but it's easier said than done

Bing Yi Lee Life is like vacation, it's going to end. The best way of ruining it, is thinking about the end all the time. The best way of enjoying it, is focusing on what you can do right now. Old people regret things they didn't do, more than things they did. Let's learn from their mistakes and enjoy it fully. And if you come from religious background, thinking life is going to end, makes it infinite times more important and valuable. And if there is a god, then the afterlife is just a bonus.

The words 'non-existent' and 'dead' are not interchangeable.

No the episode talks about having plans should you die and dealing with mortality.

+Yoruba Nationalist The body is a mech, we are piloting our very own Gundam! Wieeeee !

That is a claim you cannot back up.

Henrik Vaula Rasmussen And your counter argument to his is ?

He doesn't present any arguments, here he only claims things as facts without proof. So a counter argument is not needed. Alas, I shall give one anyway, since I must present a better case. I am not Catholic, and I might not agree with everything in the link, but it's pretty good: www.strangenotions.com/seven-proofs-for-the-natural-immortality-of-the-human-soul/

Henrik Vaula Rasmussen Ah but here is a large problem with that, its overall a faith based opinion that cannot be proven, meanwhile on the scientific section we can actually prove an opinion with physical evidence. Mind you I have no problem with anyone who wishes to believe in anything just so that is said. I have actually read some of that before, but overall I cannot agree with it but there is a very interesting discussion in the comment section on that site there if you scroll down, people are being quite civil at least. Now the soul or the existence of souls, is not possible to prove, and that essay is not proof, and most of the text essentially goes "this is proof because I said so and believe so". Now again, I have no problem with people wanting to believe in something, but nothing in that text can be called proof of anything. On the other side of the spectrum, the brain being who we are and what we are is actually a proven fact, how we act how we react how we feel all comes down to chemicals and hormones secreted by the brain when the requirements for this and that are met. The reason this is proven is because its possible to manipulate it and how we act in general just by using scents, injections, ingestion, sound, light, color, temperature etc etc etc. Damage to the brain is potential loss of the self that is created by the whole and complete brain death equals to a complete loss of that existence. Its gone, and its not coming back nor is there any indication or proof that an afterlife or spiritual existence is there. There is one thing of note though, the building blocks do not cease to be, the atoms may fall apart as the body decomposes but they will simply go on to be part of something else. That scientific fact however does not prove the existence of a soul either, because atoms are likely not eternal either. The argument used with other animals outside of us humans is extremely flawed and downright wrong as well, especially since there are many animals outside of us humans clearly have a sense of self and intellect to go with it, Crows are a great example. It is an interesting read, but for a discussion it does not deliver any actual facts that disprove scientific knowledge. In the end faith or there must be, are not facts, the author is constantly using the word proof without actually giving any form of proof, that is not how proof works. You are free to believe, but its not something you can lay out as a fact against something that scientifically has been proven, and the authors claims on why its proof because so and so, just does not work.

Now that's edgy.

Me- Really!? YAYYYY!!!!!

Fubukio fukkin same 😂

Same lol death isn't scary, it's just how you die which will bother me

Just watch Rick and Morty. The key is don't think about it.

helo im sure your scared to death of death but you can find salvation in the apostolic Pentecostal church of Jesus Christ, all you need to do is get baptized in Jesus name and you will receive the gift of the holy ghost and obey the rules of the bible more proof is a apostolic Pentecostal church in America ,Missouri, waincounty ,poplar bluff were a women was healed of cancer and I was there when it happened, I am a witness of Jesus Christ, I have a duty to help spread the word of GOD and obey what he tells me to to because if we follow those rules, when we die we go to heaven a place he made for us, and he will give us his unending love. GOD bless you.

Well, the rest of it anyway.

Triggered

Patrick Kiser 😂😂😂

That sounds like something a sjw would actualy say tbh

Probably because you now know it really happen.

probably because you now know that you shouldn't waste time

Because you realize that hopes and dreams will not help. Ever.

The idea that we'll all fade into nothing should make you believe and think, at least, that you should do everything in your power while you're still here to make wonderful, happy memories so that at your final hour, as the minutes count down and your life ebbs away, you can look back and think, "It was all worth it. I have had a beautiful life. I'm happy to have lived it."

Relief should be the correct response to this information, otherwise you will endlessly stress over something you can't control and thus ruin the enjoyment of your one and only chance at life.

Your profile picture makes me really dislike you. Also, are you 12?

im 19 and the picture is ironic, i love it when haters bring attention to it as a nonchalant adhominem attack

Mutantcy1992 it says oh god im so retarded hurr durr, and i wasnt talking about this time but it happens when im arguing with people and after a while they just needlessly bring attention to my profile picture and call it a day without addressing what ive said. also being a grammar nazi is pointless on the internet i write correctly but dont bother with commas and periods and so on, e.g. i know the difference between your and youre but dont bother with writing you're instead of youre because im not a loser thatll spend half an hour on a bloody comment on youtube,youre not impressing anybody,youll be lucky if ten other people see this very comment youve posted.

You care way to much.

Andrew, I was horrified by the idea of death when I was 7-8 and had no figures in my life with enough sense to help me with that. Though because of my exposure to the notion of the fact that there's a solid chance I would die randomly or in immense pain, or just that I would, in fact, definitely die, by the time I was about 12-13 I would have been completely unaffected by this lecture. I suspect roughly the same thing happened to you, if perhaps not that young. It's not even really unusual. The fact that it did nothing for you is a VERY good sign. This lecture was entirely because there are a portion of people unlike us that in fact, NEVER came to grips with their mortality, I have met a few, it happens. It's one of the most important questions of your life and they stated it rather well in this video though there are plenty of others like this. Idk why the commenters under this and you are in a tizzy about this video...

nonexistence By definition cannot exist.

good point.

It doesn't make sense to talk about what you can't do anymore when you die. Your point of view will cease to exist, but from the perspective of those that are still alive and your impact on the world, you exist. It makes more sense that the alive would miss hanging out with you lol.

6 fth I understand, but it's just the thought of not being able to do anything at all

+CaptainRy The point of the skit was to get you to think about it so you can plan your own mortality like getting life insurance or writing a will

+6 fth Well that's more on a literal sense. Sure people do that to give their materials and mortal processions to those who are still alive but I think, especially with this opening, that the episode was about so much more. The actual episode ending not with a solution to death or the unknown truth about it, dead is dead. He doesn't know about death expect that it happens and that he doesn't know what happens next. I watched this episode months after it came out and when I did, my brother had recently died. I still wonder if he's in heaven, if he's soul or spirit is safe. I wondered if he's ok being dead. If I should be OK that he's dead. People say to celebrate death, but I won't and probably never will

+Rene Zabala which is why the superhero in your profile picture kills tons of people right? Just kidding man. I'm sorry for your loss, remember to keep going forward in life.

Your FAVORITE? Bruh the characters are really.......

Well... I know you exist now, since I read the comment you made

...do you need a hug?

BE MY FRIEND

Wait did Spongebob leave u Patrick?

Patrick didn't age well

LittlestPeaches black is all I remember

Allan Watts ;)?

Blue Cherry lies. You remember nothing. And nothing isn't black, it isn't white, it's nothing and that's it. You can't imagine what nothing is and neither can I. And if you become nothing when you die, then you can't really imagine death.

Lmao. How can you remember something before you were born? You do realize you need a brain to store memories and information? How can you remember something before the development of a brain? Your entire existence as of now is defined by that brain. As of the moment, you cannot perceive beyond it. But when the brain ends, you will return to your true self, the self that your brain does not realize exists bc it has never met it, seen it or exactly come in contact with. But that's all you'll be left with after death, your true being, an eternal soul.

That's the point "Triggered", since you didn't exist before you were born, it will be the same when you die. Souls don't really exist.

Screw you, Adam!

Lmao

+Abbyjosh stana What spoiler???

+Paul Magnus Sørensen-Clark This video just spoiled a massive plot-twist in life!!! The characters all die in the end!

Frosty14748 What? Noooo...!

+Billy Mays That's true. It's a much better idea just to try and escape a hell, if there is one. Which I am probably going to. In any and all religions. Even that weird pastafarian one.

+Billy Mays How so?

+György Kovács Well first of all, you would see everything die off, everything old falling to obscurity. Second, even if you live forever, you could still contract diseases that are life threatening (but not die). And another thing is that eventually, you would have to live 'till the Earth expires (if the sun engulfs Earth, you would probably want to be dead before then.).

+Billy Mays and I forgot you could have severe trauma or be crippled and still survive.

+Billy Mays I still think immortality would be the preferable alternative. For one, you may see things die off or fall to obscurity, but you have plenty of time to get over that. You may contract life threatening diseases, but if you stay alive for a long enough time, eventually they'll come up with a cure. As for the Earth expiring, this planet is not expected to expire for billions of years. That should be enough time to find the way to a new planet, or to find a way to live on some kind of space station/spaceship. About having a severe trauma: it's still better to spend thousands of years in a coma than to die, because there's always a chance that medical science would become advanced enough to help you.

Are you alright?

Roy Mustang God created everyone with a plan, and if you think your not meant to be here your following the devils plan for you

There is no god. There is not devil. We are all just things that happened to evolve from things that happened to gain life

Nice Gattaca reference

@Deep Down If there is a God (spoiler: evidence points to that there isn't), how do you know you aren't following The Devil's plan of trying to convince others that God has a plan? You can't know of any plan, so you shouldn't spread false rumors. PS. If The Devil exists (spoiler: evidence points to that s/he doesn't), it's highly likely that his/her plan is to use internet to spread incorrect English grammar; "you are" is contracted as "you're" and not "your".

Exactly.

You ment to say "actually I'm a turtle person."
