it's too see if you're overweight, at the bottom it tells you your BMI with the ratio of your weight and height. If you're not overwieght at all, you're below 25. Im 23.

BMI - Body Mass Index: measure of fat tissue to lean body mass. Although the whole death clock is cr@p, sorry for criticism, not to be taken personally. Its sole purpose is to get people scared, esp. for health.

EDIT: check this out, if i put in "optimistic" my death is deferred whole 16 years! right, right .... "life is just a bowl of cherries" but why do I get all the pits?

It is indeed a thinly veiled ad for diets and other garbage.

Well, it's funny...if you try different moods other than normal, like "optimistic" at different times it's a different date with difference ranging 10 years (i can push a 100!), same for other "moods".
Anything other than normal is randomized.

According to them, with the sadistic setting I died in 1978 :eek:
optimist: I'll live until another 21 years, or until I'm 83. Realistically: I could die tonight or live forever. So that site has no clue how long anyone is going to live.

For most of us, BMI is a good indicator of obesity. But you have to account for other body feature -- for example according to BMI Governor Arnold is obese :eek:
