whether it be a supernova of the sun
impact from some super huge space junk

Yeah, if it's a crazy disaster that causes a sudden death.

Otherwise, probably not.

Worry is a misuse of imagination.
Fantasizing about Guru champion BlAcK TuRtLe, however, is a great use of it.

Eh, depends on how quickly I'd end up dying. If it's something quick, that also looks pretty cool, then sure. If it's some long drawn out process that's boring, like starvation or an ice age, then I'll pass.

Pretty much this. I rather enjoy being alive, and I'd quite like to do it for as long as I possibly can.

Pretty much this and some of the other posts here. Mass starvation no thanks, nothing long and torturous. Then again I guess I could just kill myself and end it fast. Definitely would like to see a major disaster destroy the world. Ice age might be kind of cool actually, but I doubt it would actually destroy the world. It survived one ice age, we have a ton more technology now to survive another one.

lol at "ice age 2"

I would die from starvation or something probably. I couldn't be killed from low temperature exposure unless it was so cold that everyone else on the planet already died and I was the last one left and it got a lot colder...

Maybe it would be like The Day After Tomorrow where you instantly freeze to death.

And you have to run while the FREEZE chases you!

If the alternative is being dead for the end of the world, I'd prefer to be alive.

you need to clarify 'end of the world'. literally the world being destroyed aka no more earth, or merely the wiping out of humanity?

the former would by our best estimates take some 5 billion years or so to happen; the latter...not so much.

humanity as a species is pretty much doomed to extinction (even if we avoid all the quick ends so lovingly played up by the media), as eventually genetic variance will give rise to different forms alien to us as we are now.

that said, i probably wouldn't want to be alive during either. maybe the earth blowing up scenario if i could watch from an observer standpoint ala that space station on Doctor Who. it would be a neat sight to behold :p

It wasn't a good movie but I wouldn't call it the end of the world.
