If you were invincible for a month

[CCA]

I can claim to be immortal.

I fly to Iraq and wrap US flags all over me and laugh off sniper/machinegune/ak47/pistol/RPG bullets

 

[Chandrasekhar]

Test pilot.

Or maybe establishing myself as the mesiah of a new religion with my 'miracles.'

Or I suppose I could find some method to make myself fabulously rich. That'd be fun, but I'd have to make sure that I didn't make any deadly enemies in the process.

Actually, those top two suggestions might fit into the third.

 

[MobBoss]

I would save the cheerleader...and save the world.

 

[ArneHD]

Counquer Denmark, Sweden, Finland and Iceland in that order.

Let's assume that through some natural or supernatural phenomenon, you have the power to regenerate from any bodily harm in seconds. You will have this power for a total of 30 days. What would you do with that time? Would you avenge yourself? Defend those worthy of defense? Conquer?

Remember that after 30 days you return to your former state of being. If you go cleaning the streets of the Mafia, keep in mind that the godfather can still send his thugs after you a month later.

To all of you with delusions of grandeur, lets carefully examine the OP premise.

You only have the power to regenerate bodily harm. You dont have super-strength. You very obviously dont have super-intelligence or you would have realized you didnt have super strength. You are not fast like the flash nor do you have super-martial arts skills like Chuck Norris. You are basically a regular person that just cant be hurt. Restrained? Yes. Killed? No.

So all you folks saying you would kill everyone on earth or take down North Korea - well, you dont have the capability. They would just slap a pair of handcuffs on you and toss you in jail for your remaining 30 days of invulernability.

Now...a real smart answer might be to continually harvest your organs and be a constant organ donor for people needing organs since they will regenerate immediately. I also liked Taliesins recommendation of being a uber-firefighter for a month.

Credit is due to taillesskangaru. (I tried to find a way to write that without rhyming. )

Anyway, I think organ donation is an even better idea, assuming you can prevent the surgeon's incisions from healing over.

 

[Grisu]

waitaminute, what about pain? you just say I can recover from bodily harm...does this mean I still feel the pain at the moment it happens. you know like the uber-firefighter would feel the skin being cooked and stuff?

nah, not for me, maybe I'd take part in some risky fun stuff, knowing that I can't be hurt, but that's about it

 

[Jawz II]

"If you were invincible for a month"

What do you mean "if"?

Sounds like someone wants an excuse to enjoy the only reason western males GO to southeast asia!! It's still immoral even if its disease-free, pasi!!

The war is over dude.

 

[Azash]

I would subjugate myself to some extreme jiu-jitsu training.

 

[Disgustipated]

go to Iraq and kill all the insurgents. I'm not sure how feasible this is.

I suppose you could go door to door and look for people with guns. Though you are bound to kill a few innocents this way. This plan isn't that well thought out, mind you. I'd face the same problem the U.S. military does. We don't know where they are.

 

[Ultima Dragoon]

Global domination, and see what grenades, lava and nukes taste like.

 

[Abaddon]

Create the illusion it does not finish after the month.. and live a life of luxury.

 

[Truronian]

Technically, you would be the cheerleader...

Id disguise myself as a black man, go to NYC, and scare some terrified white police officers. By looking at them sideways, or reaching into one of my pockets. Id let them empty all their weapons into me, 20, 50, 100 bullets, whatever. Theyd think I was dead, but then Id get up, spit out all the bullets, give them a cheery wave, and walk away.

 

[scipian]

I'd go tell the US gov. if they wanted me to, I could go and mess up some terrorists (not that I'm violent or skilled, just that I can't die and just doing my civic duty). COnversely, I might join a "freak show', write a book, and get millions.

Clever. I like it.

 

[MobBoss]

Ah...no...I could be Silar...or Peter Petrelli (sp?).

 

[Truronian]

Ah...no...I could be Silar...or Peter Petrelli (sp?).

Good point, although Sylar can't regenerate so you'd have to be Peter Petrelli. [/geekiness]

 

[Phlegmak]

I would start a sideshow for a month, saying, "Watch me skewer my intestines!" or something.

I was thinking I could take up deep sea exploration, and maybe recover some massive treasures. Knowledge and wealth. The contribution to knowledge alone would be immense.

Oo oh, I could allow one of those cryonics companies to do all their experiments on me, thrusting that field forward by decades.
