What if you were were blessed so that as long as you were on <insert land here> you couldn't die and if you died if you were brought back to <land> you would come back from the dead in full form. However if you left that land you'd die again but could still be brougt back to life if you were touching the land.

Note that when I say "on" I mean touching the land, like having your two feet on the land. If you are on cement covering the land, on a foundation above the land "(grass and other natural stuff don't count, you can step on logs in the land without dying), in the air or in a vehicle you'll die but once you touch the ground again you'll spring back to life. Also if you carry around some of that land with you by putting dirt in your pockets your invincible. Also you can wear shoes,socks and other footware and still live.

What would you do?

I'd have my friends put me in a coffin and during the funeral have them open it and say "Heres a portion of the land which he loved so much" and pour it on me and laugh as I spring back to life and freak out everybody attending.

First, I'd legally obtain and wall off the property so as to ensure that the land remains pure, even going so far as to allocate a multi-lane road going near it to prevent future partitioning for such a purpose. Then, I'd take some dirt and put it in a sealable pocket and go about my business. (Obviously, I'd live on the plot...)

And if/when a revolution comes, I could be an Achilles except with no heel weakness. :D

EDIT: I'd have to carry a lot of dirt around...

I'd probably still want to die eventually.

But sure, I'd hoarde the dirt for a while.

What if someone cuts your pocket and all the dirt pours out? :eek:

Hmm...


I'd be sure to implant myself with tiny sacs filled with the dirt, thus making me touch the dirt at all times.

LOL, without dirt I'd also jump in the air (causing me to die in midair) then fall to the ground to be revived again. LOL

Or how about this?

*Is pushed off giant tower*

FRIEND: Oh my god, they killed-

*Revived*

ME: I'm ok
FRIEND: Nvm.

I'd grow drugs on the land and ponder if I can overdose

LOLZ. I think if they did it with a catapult it'd be funnier. :p

Edit: Taxi rides would be funny, they put me in the cab, my friends say I'm asleep, the driver finds out I'm dead then they quickly drops me on he ground where I spring up and scare the smeg out of him. :p

You could make it a weekly affair with friends, family, and general well-wishers.

"OMG, they killed- Oh, wait, it's Wednesday again. Nevermind.

ME: Come again to my next funeral! I have one every Monday at 3:30! :D And remember Wednesday is the catapult me into the thornbushes day.

I'd pocket or swallow some of it, tell my friends to put it on me when I died, and sell small packages of eternal life for a huge price. o_O

how much land is needed for this effect?

if a small amount is needed, then I would have
1) a stone locket.
2) a stone bracelet/Watch band
3) a stone ring
4) a stone encrusted belt
5) marble teeth fillings.
6) shoes with the soles filled with dirt.

More than one quarter of a handful would be needed.

then all those would be more than enough. infact half of those would be enough. :D

I start up a show called "<myname>'s Funeral" and have "every Monday at 3:30" PM below that. :p

After that I'd thank everyone for giving me a marvelous funeral. :p

So no one would come up with nifty pranks or funny things to do? :confused:
