Would you want to know...

[edro]

Yes, I want hypothetical knowledge.

It can't be known, because it would go something like this:

Crystal ball says you will die 6 months from now from getting hit by a bus while driving home from work. You don't drive that day, avoid the bus and you stay alive.

Crystal ball now says you will die in 12 years from a heart attack. You start eating better, exercise and you don't die in 12 years.

Crystal ball now says you die in 4 hours from brain damage due to wasting time on ATOT. You stop going on ATOT and read a book instead. You live.

Crystal ball now says you will die in 10 seconds from dropping crystal ball on foot, causing a blood clot to travel to your lungs, then your heart and you will die. You carefully go to set down the dangerous crystal ball and you slip, drop it and BAM you die. The end.

What amuses me here is, I clicked the link to see what you were talking about....User made it not available in my county....

quick synopsis, guy's life is saved from being hit by bus. From that point on he can see a countdown clock of when people will die above their heads. He sees an old lady being put in a ambulance as her clock goes to zero and realizes then what the clock represents. then sees a young woman whose time is rapidly falling down to zero and is able to save her life from an accidental death. And you guessed it she now has the power too.

Anyone see the move Big Fish?

If you know when and whats going to kill you, you know when and what's NOT going to kill you. Jump off a cliff, ride a bull, fly an airplane, if its not your day to die, you're all right.
