| Re: What would you do? Me? I'd shit my pants! Honestly, if there's anything i'm afraid of in my life, that's these kind of things; because of the fact that every single thing could disappear in just few minutes. |

| Re: What would you do? A good question! It comes down to the simple question: what is the most important thing in your life. For me that would be my family. That's why I would want to be with my family if it happened but since that is impossible in only one hour, I would call them and keep the line open until the end. Anyway let's hope that there will never be a situation like this.  |

| Re: What would you do? True, Mikael, true...  Since i have 2 small kids, i'm really scared even to think about that. Of course i'd spend my last minutes with them, but could i watch that? Absolutely no! Call me crazy, but i'd probably shoot myself in the head. |

| Re: What would you do? Good question Saša. I've thought about this before and how I'd react to such a situation and the truth is, I'd stay calm. I wouldn't be afraid - no BS. I'd talk to a few of family members (Dad & Aunt) and then put on some of my favourite tunes. And I'd sit there captivated by the music's glory and what it means to me: the memories, the joy, the happiness. No doubt, my father is the most important thing in my life, but by allowing myself to slip into a musical state I'd be able to spark old memories of most everything I've loved and desired in my life. That's exactly what I'd do. |

| Re: What would you do? 1. I'd call all my family living around the world. 2. Have the biggest orgy/party! 3. Come back to my house and meet up with my whole family. 4. Pray together as we all die. |

| Re: What would you do? A single hour would be a too short time to do anything really meaningful or profound, so I'd probably just make myself a drink and think about all the good things that I got to experience. Unless I were the only person to know that we're all going to die, I don't think I'd be able to get to my family or even reach them on the phone - there'd be quite a few people with exactly the same idea out there. I'd rather die alone with some dignity than amongst a ton of panicky strangers. |
