When Do Immortals Stop Aging?

If they are anything like me that would be 13 because from 12 onward I had like 5 a day.

Or maybe it was one and the same from 12-16.

Mhmmmm…

GC has a few good songs out there you gotta admit. Other than the 2 or three that are decent I say fuck them too. thats a sick driving song tho

and you wouldnt really try to kill me would you? that’s not cool! I mean, I’m one of the good ones.

You’re not immortal. I must of heard hundreds of you rodents make the same claim. Each one of them has tasted the end of my sword.

LOL

I would totally watch a Blade spinoff with Reynolds and Biel.

I’m really surprised that no one has mentioned the child immortal from the series. In one episode child was found to have been resurrected as an immortal and survived by finding an immortal foster parent and living with them until he decides to kill them and absorb their power. I forgot how old he was, but many times he simply acted weak and then back stabbed any immortal that he could.

That would suck being stuck as a child before puberty, unable to use your penis for sex with normal women for hundreds of years.

Then some million years from now you would just be wandering around after everyone has been killed or died off and you would suffocate from the atmosphere thinning out and all the air going away…Crazy

What? If you are immortal, no fucking oxygen deprivation is going to kill you. Neither is a meteor hitting you in the head. You’ll just keep living, getting grievously injures over the centuries and end up in a million years looking comically f’ed up…carrying your appendages around in a picnic basket.

How would I carry my appendages if my appendages were in a basket…HHAAA!!! And where would i carry them without legs.

Bassicaly we would all end up looking like a cross between the knight in the holy grail who gets his arms and legs cut off and Gollum from Lord of the Rings.

Here we are, born to be kings,
We’re the princes of the universe.
NANANANANA NA NA NANA ANANAN AN…

I miss that show.

Apparently… at ~6 months.

Well, I’m pretty sure that you wouldn’t really remember most of your life at any given time. You might have vague memories of this and that, but after a while most events would lose their lucidity, and you’d end up essentially perceiving the world not too differently from a regular person. This is, assuming of course that your body maintains itself. In short, ultra-long live or immortality is probably very overrated. Heck, I already barely remember my childhood and teenage years, and I’m not very old.

So when it comes to learning, understanding life and earth and space, infinite knowledge…etc. I think that is fairly unlikely. Of course you could probably train yourself to have a sort of eidetic memory, but it would be an uphill battle, conceivably consuming more of your time than you would like.

Shrug. I guess I just don’t really see the point. After a couple hundred years it doesn’t seem likely you’d care about anything really.

Solid post.

Some loop holes in the movies etc…discussing for fun.

In Highlander 1, the evil guy gets his throat cut and it heals to a scar (he puts pins in the scar).
In Highlander 2, Connor Mcleod is the only one and has aged since he returns to a mortal when all the others have died. When the planet of immortals (seems he is from there) discovers he is still around they send some immortal assassins, he kills them and is reverted back to his immortal age instead of staying at his current older age? You then have the ability to call back an immortal? Yet you don’t call him back again when the opportunity arises.

The T.V. series was cool with the flashback scenes however this Duncan was wishy washy for me…

What were the guardians called again the mortals that watched and kept an eye on them? That was cool to see they kept the history on these immortals.

The roman immortal forget his name was the oldest known immortal like 5000 years old.

The last movie with Duncan Mcleod sucked IMO.
