Ever make a "after death" video?

I watched this a few weeks ago, and it was a pretty amazing speech:

It's a VR professor giving his last lecture after he's been diagnosed with terminal cancer. It is 75 minutes, so watch when you can.

 

I thought I would make one saying simply ...

"I got nothing."

 

No, but I did make an "AFTER BIRGHTH" Video.

Sincerely,

Spoiler

 

That's so emo, macalu.

 

It's not a bad idea, and you can never do it too early in my opinion.

 

Oh man, I've seen this before...it's great and really sad at the same time.

 

Wow, that is pretty lengthy so I'll have to finish another time but I caught the first 10 minutes, pretty impressive speech.

 

That's what SHE said!

 

You are so ruining that joke.

 

So what exactly are you planning to do? Do you have a lawyer or something that will give that to your family once you're gone or just give it to them and say don't open till you're gone? I think the latter would upset them... and think you're up to no good.

I don't know what I would say if I were to make one. I think it's too early in my life for me to make one. I think it would be nice to have once I have a kid tho.

One more thing: what did you say? can we see?

 

That's what YOU said.

 

That's getting old, and I'm not just talking about SwoLy doing it either.

 

That's what they said.

No, but... really, I agree, I don't see Michael doing that joke too many times next season. Hey, RM95, I took a break from doing the joke at all this past week. I cut back.

 

You can fess up on all the secrets you've kept.

Give advice to viewers (though it could become obsolete before you die).

Do a David Letterman-style Top 10 list.

 

If you plan on living for a long time then don't make the video. Usually when people do stuff like this they end up dying 2 or 3 days later.

 

I will never die.

 

I would worry about my video not being watchable in the future due to format changes and/or lack of longevity of the recording medium.

I can imagine my family not being interested enough in what I had to say to go out and buy a new VCR, for example.

 

Been listening to it at work. Awesome video!

 

Bingo... I'm sure DVDs or MPEGs will be outdated 35-45 years from now (when I assume I'll have passed on...)
