    haha, that would have helped it make more sense if it was in the movie, and william knew her secret at the beginning and had the chance to discuss the implications of not aging. probably won't watch this movie ever again though.

      She didn't know how she got that way, so she had nothing to share. The narrator stated that the reason wouldn't be discovered by scientists until 2035.

        It's not up to her to know it, although as pointed out by other posters, in her world there were scary people who would kidnap her, in the real world they'd probably pay her beep and figure what was going on asap.
        The reason wouldn't be discovered till 2035 in her world because she selfishly kept the secret to herself, letting billions of people age needlessly.
        Thanks adaline, you selfish cow.

          Oh I'm
          so sure
          you would give your life and your body over to science if this happened to you. You do realize you would probably never see the people you love again? That you would be held captive and likely experimented on to the point of torture? Don't be so dumb.

            "You do realize you would probably never see the people you love again?"
            do you have cases you wish to cite to prove this in our western world?
            you do realise that's illegal? in our world. in her world of fiction, we need to believe that's the case because the story would fall on it's ar$e without it, but in our world it's as simple as labs taking samples and testing them, no need for the cage, unless you particularly want to be locked up. That's the problem with the world of fiction, people like yourself find it hard to tell the difference between it and the world outside, you should go out there some time, it's not as scary as you think it is.

              Yeah the US government would never conduct any medical experiments that would be considered illegal by modern day standards.
              https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Internment_of_Japanese_Americans
              Also the government would never forcibly remove US citizens to a location not of there choosing.
              In real life during the time period she lived in she would have been snatched up and sent to a government lab.

                In everyone of your arguments with people you go off of the subject or contradict yourself, if you have no more to say don't bother posting.

                  Would you volunteer to be dissected to a thousand slices "for the good of humanity"?

                    She was dead when the lightning struck her, so she could have never known the reason for the immortality. There were no witnesses. In fact, she would even be hard to realize it happened in that accident.

                      What? Submit to a lifetime (read eternity) of imprisonment, experimentation, torture and ultimately probably vivisection voluntarily? Who would want that.
                      Yes some people willingly sacrifice their lives for their fellow man: a mother for her children, a father for his country perhaps, but for no nobler cause than other people's vanity? Doubtful.

                        The point being missed by some is that she did not know why she wasn't aging. She had no information to share. The reason was discovered later, after her death.

                          Imagine if everyone stopped aging? World would go poof.

                            Good for you to be willing to sacrifice yourself to greedy science people like some lab rat.

                              What made you ever think that 9 billion people not dying would be a good idea? That would surely make the world population grow exponentially and we would eventually all starve to death. Besides, who the beep are you to get access to immortality?

                                She was unconscious when stuck by lightning, she couldn't have known what happened to her. She doesn't know why she doesn't age.
