If you could witness any event in history,
 
what would you choose?

Also, if you could find out the precise time of your death, would you want to know?

Thanks.

Europe during WWII.

no, I don't want to know when I will die.

QuikSsurfer 04-03-2006 12:36 PM

christ's death (if it took place).. or.. well nevermind.
yes, i would like to be able to mark the date down :)

Yeah I'd like to know when I'd die.

I think the Kennedy assassination still intrigues me. I'd love to been there in Dallas to witness one of the most talked about consipracy moments in this country's history. That with knowing what to look for would totally put me in heaven on earth.

Hopefully the gubment will release all of the records soon and we'll know the truth.

They did a special on discovery (or one of those channels) about the "magic bullet" and the did an exact re-enactment of the entire setup. Pretty convincing evidence that the bullet did all of that from one shot.

I would also like to witness Christ's death. IMO that's the story of all stories.

Assasination of JFK

I'd rather be suprised

Super Bowl IV.

And yes, I'd like to know when I die. Because I could change it.

The Resurrection would be my choice.

edit: 2nd choice - The Immaculate Conception.
edit2: and oh, by the way, yes I would want to know.

Even though I'm not religious, I think that the whole Jesus thing is indeed a great question. However, I have no doubt that his death is probably pretty accurate, so I'd prefer to see the loaves and fishes trick. That would explain a lot pretty quickly.

In terms of secular history, I think I'd like to have been in the room when the Bill of Rights was being drafted. The Constitution too, if I could be around longer.

Damn good choice.
I wonder if it happened the way they said it happened or if all of it was fabricated myself.

Tough question, because it's hard to choose just one specific event to be a part of. I'll go with the time period that involved the life and death of Jesus Christ.

I'm pretty sure I'm already dead...............either that, or I'm living in Wichita, KS.

Well yeah I meant that whole period of time with the last 12 hours of his life to the resurrection.

Theres no way you could change your death date. You could hide out in your basement all day on your death day and still die of a heart attack.

I would like to have witnessed the dropping of the first atomic bomb from the window of the airplane. (Enola Gay??)

I think witnessing such a mass destruction would have struck a major core with me. I think it would have made me humble and very forgiving. I think seeing something like that would have haunted me the rest of the days of my life.

And speaking of life- YES! I'd want to know when I die. Just like the character says in the movie, Big Fish- "I'd like to know 'cause then everything else I do up til then I know I could survive." I think it would make me a very courageous person, but more importantly- I can plan my life around my death.
