Sure I would. Just punch until it breaks. It is only wood. Then it is just a matter of time before tunneling to the surface. And what happens if you run out of oxygen before digging all the way up? You'll lose conciousness, and you won't wake up until the earth erodes away enough for air to reach you so you can regain consiousness. Depending on where your grave is and whether or not you are in a well-kept cemetary, it could be several hundred years before you get enough air to regain conciousness. Also, I wonder, what would happen if somebody tried to drown you. It's kinda like what Sabretooth once tried to do to Wolverine in the Ultimate universe. "You hear that popping sound Wolverine? That's your brain cells dying from lack of oxygen. How is a healing factor supposed to take care of brain damage? I mean, even if you do survive, you're just going to be a vegetable for the rest of your life, right?" You've already refuted the ideas of being trapped in a metal cage or thrown into a star or something, but what if someone gives you the treatment from the first Superman movie? Just toss you into space and let you float for eternity... The odds that you'd eventually land on a planet that can support human life are pretty much pretty much zero. You'd lose conciousness from freezing or lack of oxygen or whatever, and you'd never be given a chance to wake up. It would essentially be the same as dying.

Translation: "Okay, maybe picking immortality wasn't the best idea, but I'm going to go down swinging!" That's my philosophy on life.

What is your first name? Brett
Do you have any nicknames? BOk (my initials are B O K, real original huh. but been called it by everyone i know since I was 5) beatboks (there was a music show on the ABC called the beat box when I was in my teens and played in bands, bokster etc
Where do you live? Gold Coast Australia (The Australian equivalent of California)
How old are you? 52

Where do you work? Manager of a office supply company. Have also worked in management in other retailers, Been Baker, DJ (both night clubs and own mobile Disco company). And Army in my 20's
Are you in a relationship, married, ect? Married two wonderful Kids
How did you find out about The Comics Ledger? Invited over from CV by Lubre
Who is your favorite historical figure? John Curtin- The only Prime Minister Australia's had that had both Balls, Brains and integrity. he was political leader during WWII. Unlike most polies he didn't play part politics. When we were at war he formed a joint cabinet. That is he put members of his opposition in key cabinet positions because he simply believed the country needed the best heads to do the job in the position.
Who is your favorite comic book character? Alan Scot
If you could have one superpower, what would it be? Telepathy - I'd know what my enemies were planning and be prepared, kow what my superiors want to hear, could source the best ideas possible (since the thought of all around me would be "food for thought)
What is your favorite food? I love Thai and Japanese cuisines. I Also love Crustaceans
What is your favorite drink? A GOOD 18 year old (+) Scotch whiskey straight up or on the rocks Glenfiddich, or as blended scotches go Chivas Regal (preferably, and neither of those should ever be tainted with anything including Ice)).
Do you have any siblings? A younger Sister. She has a husband and three kids (the youngest of which is in their mid teens)
What would your career of choice be? I always wanted to be a fighter pilot. In my teens watching the the Black sheep about WWII corsair pilots got my attention. I wanted to fly a Saab. Unfortunately when I applied for the air force I was medically unfit to be a pilot. Have a birth mark behind one eye. Doesn't effect my sight but it does give me e "Turn in the eye". Had to settle for being a grunt.
What is your favorite band? I love all music, too hard to pick just one. Some artists I love include Billy Joel, Sting, Police, Stevie Niicks, John Cougar, Eagles, Creedance, Hendrix, Doors, Zeplin, Black Sabbeth, Metallica, ACDC, Canned Heat, Def Leppard, Door, Dire Straits, Grateful dead, ZZ top, Radiators, G Thoroughgood, Van Morrison, Gary Moore, BB King,Bill Withers, Matchbox 20, offspring, Oasis, Pink Green DAy, Cold Play, Clash, Janes addiction, Danzig, Pearl Jam, Ramones, Violent Femmes, Nirvana, Black Eyed peas, Bomfunc MC, Sat n Pepa, Tone Loc, Venga Boys, Backstreet boys, Alicia Keys, Shaggy, Chemical Bros, Basement Jaxx --- think I'll stop there.

What is your favorite movie? Huge fan of Humphrey Bogart and Steve McQueen. It varies between their movies.
Describe your personality in 5 words. outgoing, boisterous, loud, extravert. (really only need 4)
If you could live anywhere you wanted, where would it be? I love my little part of the word and wouldn't change to be honest. Where I live is right in the middle of the Gold Coast. 20 minutes drive to 1 end (Southport / Surfers Paradise) where all the nightclubs are, 10 minutes from Broadbeach where all the restaurants are, 5 minutes from the larges shopping complex on the Gold Coast (Robina litterally 4.9kms away), 1 hr south of Brisbane, 1 Hr north of Byron Bay. In less than 15 minutes travel I can get to 15 of the best beaches in Australia. In a little over half an hr i can take my kids to any one of a dozen national parks. Plus there are 7 theme parks in less than 15 minutes Drive. Plus where I live is still a quite suburb.
What are your spiritual/religious beliefs? Catholic, at least that's where I worship. Basically christian. But at the catholic school I went to we were taught that most of the Old Testament were stories that the Jew told their children to explain things they didn't understand. That only the massage of the "word of God" (i.e the message that God put into the hearts of his prophets) was what mattered. I.e do unto others

I do not need oxygen. I am immortal. You can survive without oxygen, but you can not remain concious indefinitely without it. Sure I can. It is true immortality. Similar to Hercules and Thor.
