Milan - Posted March 29, 2005 Author Share Posted March 29, 2005 You would neither grow twice as big nor disappear. Since matter cannot be destroyed or created, only changed, you should assume that eating yourself is a perfectly lossless conversion. If you grew twice as big, matter was created from somewhere. This wouldn't happen. If you disappeared, matter was destroyed. This cannot happen unless it is converted into pure energy, and your body does not possess the requisite power needed to convert things into pure energy.Setting apart the obvious argument that you cannot regenerate most parts of your body, and assuming that you excrete zero waste, the matter in, say, your leg would be just enough for your body to grow another leg. You would hence remain the same size no matter how much of your body you ate. here is a quote that seth kinast gave :yes: i think it is quite good Link to comment https://www.neowin.net/forum/topic/302401-if-i-eat-myself-wil-i-be-twice-size-or-dissapear/page/2/#findComment-585692073 Share on other sites More sharing options...
Martyn Posted March 29, 2005 Share Posted March 29, 2005 You would just turn yourself into mashed human! Link to comment https://www.neowin.net/forum/topic/302401-if-i-eat-myself-wil-i-be-twice-size-or-dissapear/page/2/#findComment-585692081 Share on other sites More sharing options...
gunky Posted March 29, 2005 Share Posted March 29, 2005 i have this question in my sig, and a few people have pm'd me here are there quotes but i amnot convinced,even though they are good answers CONVINCE ME: EITHER, I WOULD DISSAPEAR OR BE TWICE THE SIZE 585691832[/snapback] Why would you be any different in size? You'd be the same size (roughly) but dead, if you did a good job of eating yourself.

Milan - Posted March 29, 2005 Author Share Posted March 29, 2005 Well, considering you would have one hell of a time reaching behind your body, I doubt you would dissappear. So, in other words, it's impossible (unless you have help, I guess). Anyhow, you'd bleed out before you ever got around to getting even close to thinking about this. 585691857[/snapback] :rofl: yes you would blledd and ptentially die of blood loss im not gonna go into detailsim just gonna say that u will dissappear if this doesnt convince you, i dunno what will enjoy ur meal.....of your self 585691858[/snapback] nothing :shifty: The answer is simple... you CAN'T eat yourself, you'll die! 585691866[/snapback] :yes: you cant Assuming you are invincible:You would be thsameb> size because nothing has dissapeared, or has been added. You would not be able to eat your head/neck, stomach and gullet either - as these are crucial to the 'consumption' process. 585692025[/snapback] this is the best so far award this one, with the comment of the day Link to comment https://www.neowin.net/forum/topic/302401-if-i-eat-myself-wil-i-be-twice-size-or-dissapear/page/2/#findComment-585692099 Share on other sites More sharing options...

cchasem Posted March 29, 2005 Share Posted March 29, 2005 I think.. you can't think too logical to answer this. You _would_ dissappear if you ate yourself, because.. you 'ate yourself' so, you're all gone. You ate your legs, arms, chest, stomach, and probably last mouth & tongue. You're gone. Don't think "but where did it all go?!" just look at what it says. "You ate yourself." edit: please give me money. i need to replace my lost ipod.. *sigh* Link to comment https://www.neowin.net/forum/topic/302401-if-i-eat-myself-wil-i-be-twice-size-or-dissapear/page/2/#findComment-585692294 Share on other sites More sharing options...
username Posted March 29, 2005 Share Posted March 29, 2005 matter cannot be created nor destroyed, so there goes the "twice as big" part not to mention the energy lost in avery espect of it is this something you ask little kids when you want them to think?

Ruciz Posted March 29, 2005 Share Posted March 29, 2005 Well, due to physics laws its impossible to make matter double in size or disappear, Your result would be you would be the same mass, but you would be deformed. If you ate someone else then they would disappear and you would be twice your size.. But you can't do it to yourself, unless you have your weight in clothes on or something. This question reminds me of the impossible drawings, because neither option for an answer is correct.

ph3412t3h13 Posted March 29, 2005 Share Posted March 29, 2005 i actually just realized something u would completely disappear eventually because u would lose a **** load of blood and die, then your body would rot away and would eventually totally disappear WOO!

skiiper Posted March 29, 2005 Share Posted March 29, 2005 assuming you can stay alive long enough for you to eat yourself in your entirity, you will still be the same size. all you flesh will no longer be living tissue, just a pile of human biomass. ahem... now about the money....
