The big crunch was a potential scenario, but it has been disproved now because we know that the expansion of the universe is actually accelerating rather than decelerating, as we previously thought.

Anyone heard about the scole experiment ? very interesting video.
It gets worse as you get older, and your mortality becomes more evident. Enjoy being 23!I'm exactly the same and have had this fear for 10 years or so. It's not something that i try to dwell on for too long but it is something that if thought about even a little bit, really petrifies me.
My way of coping with it is just to try and not to think about it. Go to bed early, wake up early and don't have caffeine late. I'm thinking as i get older, I'm only 23, i'll overcome it. If i die of old age then i probably won't know what's happening anyway...i hope.
You are not literally petrified.

I'm too busy living to worry about dying![]()
Is anyone annoyed at the fact that life will carry on without you? All the things you miss out on, technology,discoveries etc...? I just find that very annoying.
