Step back from the ledge.  You'll be fine.  Unless you get an infection of one of those flesh eating bugs.  Still, you're probably not going to go Z.  Probably.

I used to have this one manager...  She was so fat that, if she got the flesh eating infection, the doctor would still give her 40 years to live.

Somehow I still survived all that blood loss.

So, I shouldn't hit you with the bad news? 
(That, yes, you're gonna die?)

Thats not bad news, being immortal would be bad news.

I like the idea by Sci-Fi writer Iain M Banks (RIP) where peeps in the culture series are immortal. They can also change their gender, amongst other things and when they get bored of it all they simply choose to die, or what ever they call it...

I can think of a scenario where being immortal would be worthwhile.  If you could be assured of being among similar beings (whether you become like the others or they are always like you), AND you had the ability to forget what you know when you want to.  The most fun is when you are a blank slate learning all sorts of new things.  Once you've been there and done EVERYTHING (many, many times), I'm sure being immortal would really suck.  Even more so, can you even imagine what it would be like if you OUTLIVED THE PLANET???  Eventually, the sun would expand and die taking the planet with it.  Now you're just hanging out in dark space...  Hell indeed!
