What if you were the only human on this earth, how would you see your life develop?

Question

And when you died, that's it, no human life left. Only the animals to populate the world.

Answer 1

Thank God for a bit of bloody peace and quiet. I'm fairly reclusive anyway..I'd be happy enough watching animals, hopefully making some my friends. I'd re-invent stuff.I'd tinker with things, and potter about. I don't think I'd miss people much. Ok - I'd miss language for a while, but it's amazing what you can adapt to. Oh, by the way, I've smuggled my daughter in in my overcoat. Sorry chaps, can't leave her behind.

Answer 2

I would live in peace at last. I would only eat vegetables. There won't be any television or radio, newspapers, electricity, gas... but there would be plenty of tinned food stuffs in the stores that would last for a long long time.

I'd go someplace nice and read books in the libraries to entertain myself. I would have some domestic animals to keep me company as well. There would be an endless supply of batteries in the store, so I could listen to CDs. I could help myself to a portable DVD player, battery operated as well.

To tell the truth, the idea sounds great to me, but a bit spooky, i must admit..

Answer 3

I believe it would be impossible to live life alone on Earth. Our needs must be met by other things we can't supply. We could only exist until our supply of needs were used up and there was no more. Animals also couldn't exist if humans couldn't exist. They have also evolved to become dependent on man to exist. So there would be no development here as a lone human. Besides that, who would want to be here if he/she were the only one. This was a "thought provoking" question!

Answer 4

If I were the only person on earth, There wouldn't be sins for Adam and Eve never would have existed. You would just walk around I guess. I mean There's probably not gonna be a day where this situation happens but, Like Noah and his family they were the only ones on earth for a while so you never know. :)

Answer 5

I'd have to live in a library and just read books until I died.

I suppose video games would be a good relief from the boredom, but I haven't played those recently, so I'd have to brush up on that skill.

Yikes... no matter how much other people annoy me, the thought of that is pretty scary, for sure.

Answer 6

I would see a lonely man spending probably the next 40 years or so talking to himself a lot. The image of Tom Hanks in Castaway comes to mind....and hey I work for FedEx. I hope this isn't some sort of omen or foreshadowing.

Answer 7

oh wow...thats a toughy. i guess i would do what i could to survive. id probably end up starting up a farm and enjoying nature everyday of my life. praying to God would probably be the best use of time. because if im the only one left alive i want to be in good standings with the Lord.

Answer 8

if i was born the only one on this earth, i wouldnt know of any other kind of life so i'd probably survive. but if i suddenly became the only human on the earth NOW, i'd probably just kill myself. or else i'd go insane talking to myself, and then end up killing myself because i went crazy. so basically in the end i'll end up killing myself

Answer 9

well if there were still things like tv, radio, books, and things of that sort to keep me entertained, I think I would be fine. And as far as human life not going any further after my death, then so be it. What is going to be, will be.

Answer 10

All my buddies would miss me I know. Judy the big elephant would not have anyone to ride on the back of her head. Sara the big ape would miss me snuggled up behind her at night. Their are many more, but the one that would miss me most is [[JOE]] the big ape that would fight me at least once a week over all the females.
