Since this blog just keeps on getting revived time and again , I have the idea that this has a spirit and is immortal… Haha… Anyway to start off my regular posts, here’s a list of the top 10 immortals as taken from LiveScience.com.

10: Peter Pan

The famous boy who never grows up (or old), prefers instead to cavort with fairies and fight one-handed pirates on the magical isle of Neverland.

9: Dracula

If you’re really desperate to live forever, you could try getting bitten by Dracula or one of his vampire underlings. But then you’ll have to avoid Italian food and do nasty things like drink blood, avoid sunlight and sleep in coffins.

8: Lazarus Long

A character in many of Robert Heinlein’s science fiction novels, Lazarus’ long life is the result of a selective breeding program and occasional blood rejuvenation treatments. Lazarus lives to be over 2,000 years old; he travels to distant planets and even through time, and works every conceivable job, from doctor to slave.

7: Nicholas Flamel

In “Harry Potter and the Sorcerer’s Stone,” Nicolas Flamel is a good friend of Hogwart’s headmaster Albus Dumbledore. Author J.K. Rowling based Flamel’s character on a real-life French 15th-century alchemist who legend claims successfully created the Philosopher’s Stone, a mythical elixir that turns lead into gold and grants eternal life.

 

6: Tithonus

When the Greek goddess Eos asks Zeus to grant her mortal lover, Tithonus, eternal life, she forgets to also ask for eternal youth. Tithonus indeed lives forever, but he grows old and frail, and begs for death. Some stories say that Tithonus eventually became a grasshopper.

5: Dorian Gray

An Oscar Wilde character that remains young and handsome while his portrait ages. Dorian slowly becomes corrupt, but his crimes and his true age show only in the face of the painting, which grows progressively more monstrous and withered.

4: Highlander

In the 1986 movie “Highlander,” Connor MacLeod is a member of the immortals, a mysterious race who die only when their heads are lopped off. The immortals must battle each other until only one is left to claim The Prize: The gift of mortality and the ability to die like everyone else.

3: Grail Knight

A knight of the First Crusade who, in “Indiana Jones and the Last Crusade,” is tasked with guarding the Holy Grail, a crucible that grants eternal life to any who drink from it. When Indy chooses the correct Grail from multiple imposters, the knight warns him that it cannot be taken beyond the temple, because that is the price of immortality.

2: Methuselah

Methuselah is the oldest person whose age is mentioned in the Old Testament of the Bible. He is the grandfather of Noah of “Ark” fame. Methuselah became a father at the age of 187, lived to be 969 and died the day the Great Flood appeared.

1: Arwen

A half-elven maiden in J.R.R. Tolkien’s “Lord of the Rings” who renounces eternal life to marry her mortal sweetheart, Aragorn, the human king of Gondor. Arwen dies shortly after Aragorn, at the ripe old age of 2,901.
