I was just reading the last chapter in my Astronomy book and it says that protons (yes, the ones that make up the atoms of our body) are unstable because they contain 3 quarks and have a half-life of 10^28 years. So maybe in 10^28 years you'll be sitting there watching TV and half of you will decay into electrons or some other particle....
