Er, I don't think it does that, but it can kill bugs in the water he might have to drink.

Still chuckling about the image of Seth sallying forth into the wormhole, protected by his trusty survival gear kit consisting of his bug-out bag, pistol and rifle and regarding that as adequate survival gear to get him through most survival challenges that are about to face him. Talk about trumping Walter Mitty. :mrgreen:

If you can't handle this world, jump through by all means.
Personally, I think this world is all right. Where I live, anyway. I think I'm lucky to be here. I wouldn't mind a fresh start, but that ain't on offer.
There's lots wrong with the place, but 'kin ell, there's an awful lot right too.

The wormhole might be affecting the mind, and make you imagine the stuff you are seeing. I wouldn't gamble.
It could be aliens who put the wormhole there, with false images, to get you to jump through, so that they can slowly eat your brain.
While there is a market for shit, there will be assholes to supply it.

You don't know what's in the bag, nor do you know the extent of my survival training and skills. I do.

But, it's true that sometimes you die. So what? Big deal.

It would be worth it to see a new world, even for a short while. You see, I don't fear death, I fear ending up with my mind wasting away until I am but a hollow shell being kept alive artificially because others selfishly want me to stay around. And on the off chance that there is an afterlife of some sort, I'd want to have that experience tucked away in my memory, which would be something no other human has.

It's not about handling this world, it's about exploring a new one. If I had been even remotely qualified to apply for the one-way Mars mission, I'd have signed up in a heartbeat. I still would.

I don't contest that at all. I'm just willing to risk everything to see something entirely new to human experience.

Yes, that's possible. I'll take that risk.

This is true, Wally, but unless you enter the wormhole inside something akin to Doctor Who's TARDIS - and I kind of doubt somehow that it's part of your survival kit - your chances of surviving your adventure are not, to put it really, really mildly, not all that great. But dream on. You have great potential to become a sequel to Thurber's short story, amped up to the nth degree. Meanwhile I'll keep chuckling at the image of you "to boldly go where no man has gone before" equipped with no more than your survival bag, your pistol, your rifle and your survival skills.

Life is full of risks. That's one that I'd be happy to take, regardless of the consequences. One thing is certain however, if you and I were both sucked into the vortex, I'd most likely live longer than you would, provided the environment is not instantly fatal.

Methinks the only way you will get my knife is to have it inserted in one of your vital organs first.
