    The sun will die in about 4billion years, in doing so it will expand and incinerate the earth.

    That will be the definitive end to the earth.


    Jedward are going to destroy the human race in some way.

    We will pull so much oil out of the earth, that the sybolitic weight transfer ratio that contols the earth's gravitation pull, will cease.

    This will have the effect of the earth's vegetation dying due to minerals in the soil no longer being able to move at a rate that would make photosynthesis possible.

    Animals will be begin to die rapidly without vegetation and so ultimately we will too will suffer the same fate.

    The world will end when Sol goes nova.

    Humanity will have colonised plenty of other planets orbiting other stars by then though.

    Humanity will destroy itself looooonnnnng before the world ends. My guess is nuclear war. The world itself will end in 5 billions years, when the sun consumes the planet in a fireball. :)

    i don't think nuclear war would kill off even close to every human on the planet, even if there was nuclear war between europe, china, russia and the states large sections of the planet (ie the southern hemisphere) would still be livable

    biological warfare or more to the point the release of any number of man-made super viruses into the general population could easily kill more than all out nuclear war

    Great, we just can't get enough places to fuck up.

    The world ending and the human race dying out are different things.

    The poll options are all about the human race dying out.

    I think it will be a slow process, with the world s climate changing and entering another ice age, and then we'll all die . . .

    I love when the figments of my imagination wonder how the world will end.
    As soon as I'm gone, the rest of you are gone.

    When engulfed by the sun. Why to people constantly confuse humanity and the world? "Driving cars is destroying the planet!" No, the planet's fine, we're ****ed.

    Fire and Ice by Robert Frost


    Some say the world will end in fire,
    Some say in ice.
    From what I've tasted of desire
    I hold with those who favor fire.

    But if it had to perish twice,
    I think I know enough of hate
    To say that for destruction ice
    Is also great
    And would suffice.


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 12,456 ✭✭✭✭Mr Benevolent


    Do you mean 'how do you think the human race will end?' Badly.

    The world, however, will sail serenely on, blissfully unaware of our ending. The thought comforts me.

    They might perpetuate the mass suicide scenario that's been suggested.

    I'd say the Supervolcano in Yellowstone Park will do us in.

    She's getting ready to blow.

    Does she have a sister ?

    She might be a sucker. Your lucky day

    The 1,080-square-mile Toba caldera is the only supervolcano in existence that can be described as Yellowstone's "big" sister.

    Not bad, can't say I have ever heard that one before tbh.

    This version really resonates with me on a deep and profound level though:


    Fire and Ice - Pat Benatar


    Ooo, you're givin' me the fever tonight
    I don't wanna give in
    I'd be playin' with fire
    You forget, I've seen you work before
    Take `em straight to the top
    Leave `em cryin' for more
    I've seen you burn `em before

    Fire and Ice
    You come on like a flame
    Then you turn a cold shoulder
    Fire and Ice

    I wanna give you my love
    But you'll just take a little piece of my heart
    You'll just tear it apart

    Movin' in for the kill tonight
    You got every advantage when they put out the lights
    It's not so pretty when it fades away
    Cause it's just an illusion in this passion play
    I've seen you burn `em before

    So you think you got it all figured out
    You're an expert in the field, without a doubt
    But I know your methods inside and out
    And I won't be takin' in by Fire and Ice

    I always thought we were due for another astroid attack soon and we'd all be wiped out.

    How do you think humanity/the world will end?

    I hope it's zombies, maybe it's just me, but I think a zombie apocalypse would be pretty deadly(Pardon the unintentional pun).

    tsunami,
    Huricane Katrina,
    Swine flu,
    Haiti Earthquake,
    Soulja boi and Ke$ha becomming successful,
    the Huricane in Iceland,
    major global food shortages,
    floods in Pakistan

    Simul-Dump-plosions.

    Soon, when everyone has a toilet of their own, which will happen, there will be a simultaneous dump which will cause a world wide clog which will blow up when a UFO shoots a match at the Earths key dump treatment facilities.

    It will happen.
