A website claims to predict the day of your death and leaves you morbid hints as to how.
Deathdate.info is an interesting site. After putting in some brief details about yourself it claims to be able to estimate when you’re going to kick the bucket.
What I found particularly interesting about the site itself is that instead of just a typical random date generator. You can come back and put in the same info and receive the same “death date” (which doesn’t bode well for me – I quit smoking and drinking to die at sixty? That’s bullshit.)
HOWEVER – it’s not perfect. For a fun read – click the celebrities tab and see when the Death Calculator predicted certain celebs to croak.
As you can see – the death date calculator is a bit flawed. One could argue in the early 2000’s it didn’t seem like Eminem would live past 2014 but last I checked he’s doing pretty good. He even murdered Machine Gun Kelly’s career along the way.
So how does it work? Beats me. How does real death work? No fucking clue. If I did have any idea, I probably wouldn’t be spending the rest of my twenty eight years alive at my day job – asking people to read my blog on Twitter – oh and by the way thanks, for reading.
