Okay how about I'll send you a contract to transfer all of your property to me and then you'll be free to spend the rest of your life in the Amazon rainforest. If you get malaria, don't worry, it's natural. Just learn to leave things be.

That's actually not a feat at all. There's no grander harmony of nature that needs to be preserved by killing people off at a fixed age. Hell, there never was: we evolved, suffered an ice age, drove the large land mammals to extinction, and emerged from an ice age, all before even inventing writing or agriculture.
No it isn't, otherwise you wouldn't get things like hydra or the immortal jellyfish. Even lobsters appear to die through predation rather than through aging.
Your comment could apply equally to any medical research; do you believe any medical research is a good idea? If so, how do you decide where to draw the line?
What could be more amazing than transcending death?
