    [​IMG] Hi all, I just came across this web site alexchiu.com while surfing the internet and I was wondering if any of you have tried his immortality rings or know if they really work or not? Personally, I don't but who knows?

    Why the hell does he have pictures of scientists on his page? "These people are smart! So I am too!"

    I'm tempted to buy one so I can dance on your graves... :p

    Hmm, if one is a necrofilia that wan't to have a serious relationship, all he has to do is kill someone and right at the moment where they die, they put the ring on their finger, creating the world's first undead, Kerry excluded. ;)

    AHH! Dude, this guy hurts my head. Read the parts where he explains that:

    - he can predict the future accurately
    - he knows the secrets of space
    - he knows ho to heal the handicapped
    - God is a mathematical formula
    - a solution for world peace has been developed by him

    This guy is so full of it, I think he believes himself.

    These things are more popular then you would think. Not this particular immortality ring but armbands and the like, which do the same sort of thing with the magnets. Nobody said anything about immortality though. They put these things on Race Horses and allot of people have been using them for certain illnesses/conditions. I have not tried them myself but I have never read anything bad about them. Don't knock it till you've tried it.

    You can use magnets to switch off your muscles. It's a method used since Ancient Egypt, a friend of my mother practices it, and she tried it on me. It was wierd because certain herbs were weakening my muscles when I just held them, and others strengthened them. Is that the sort of thing you're meaning Sarevok?

    Oh dear God in heaven, I can only HOPE that that entire site was a joke.

    If he seriously believes even a quarter of the stuff on there then I've lost all hope for the human race. That's all I have to say.

    i don't want to sound unfriendly, but
    1 - The starter of the thread has only one post, this one.
    2 - How many clicked on the page since he/she started the post?
    3 - And that a commercial website?

    teekc, we left this obvious commercial here for entertainment purposes. If anyone is foolish enough to actually go and buy those things, they have only themselves to blame.

    The "90 day money back guarantee" that comes with the rings seems a trifle short for items that are supposed to grant inmortality. :)


    And reading the posts is just plain scary...

    Wow. That sure is heavy. I wonder if that works with decapitated people.

    Maybe I should ask the guy what would happen if I started wearing one of those coils as a headband. Ohhh... ohhh Minsc understand now! That's how he became so wise and intelligent!

    This reminds me oddly of Planescape: Torment when The Nameless one bites off his finger so that he can aquire the ring that was on another finger but it wouldn't come off. He then replaces his bitten off finger with the dead finger with ring and it attaches itself to him.

    All in all I think the guy is nuts. If he believes his invention to be so... successful... why doesn't he try it on animals? Like a mouse or something considering they don't live as long as us it would be possible to prove it... oh wait... I know why he doesn't... he's a loony!
