According to this quiz - In my past life I OD'd at Woodstock (take the quiz)

How Did You Die in Your Past Life?

OD'd in Woodstock

Your love for music, dancing and just having fun has a very long history. In your past life, you were a music fanatic who went to all the best concerts and clubs. You listened to some of the truly best artists in the history of music (LIVE!) and partied like a king/queen. Then came Woodstock: the nature, the music and the drugs. At least you know better this time around!


You know I don't put alot of stock into these corny Facebook quizzes but this one actually makes sense for me. In this life I still love music and have seen so many great artists live but I guess I learned my lesson from my previous life because I still haven't done any illegal drugs.

Died
In your past life, you were a doctor who was trying to cure people infected with "The black death". You fought long and hard for every life, but at the end, you got sick and had to step down and let others take care of you.
You were a true warrior at heart who never gave up on people and always tried to help. Qualities that you still possess today.

During the biblical times, you were a very honorable and noble person. Just like you are today! But during those days, most honorable men were sacrificed as a special gesture to the gods. Obviously, one day they picked you. Long story short- you were sacrificed. Look on the bright side, it rained a lot during that year!

You just blew my mind. Far out, man!

I don't do these quizzes--especially one about my "past life." My life began when I was born, period. Though I do have this inexplicable urge to tilt at windmills...

The only problem is I was already alive when Woodstock took place so shouldn't my previous life already have ended?

9. I once knew a man who could see dead people and people's past lives.
Tue Oct 14, 2014, 03:45 AM
Oct 2014

So he said. Dead people were everywhere, he couldn't even go skiing without bumping into them. He was my boss so I listened politely. He told me I have two entities hovering behind me, both male, one good and one bad. I had two past lives that were short and unhappy, I never had a husband or children. The last life was in Spain. I wasn't supposed to be born in the U.S. for this life but there was a mix-up and I went down the wrong birth canal. I should never have children (which was correct, I have always said this). Finally he told me I should come and visit the temple he belonged to and they would pray for me and my sad life, former and present. Ah! Run away, run away!

Hundreds of millions of people died during World War II, but your death was quite special.
You died while freeing a Nazi concentration camp and saving the lives of dozens of kids. Those kids survived and lived a full life thanks to you! You should be proud of your-past-self!

When humans were making their few steps on the planet, you were hunting dinosaurs! True, it's not the smartest thing to do, but the brave and adventurous nature of yours was too strong to ignore. At the end you were happily eaten by a giant T-Rex, but hey, at least you have a great story to tell!


How can that be since humans didn't exist when dinosaurs were alive?


This reminds me of the past lives scene from the great Albert Brooks movie "Defending Your Life".

I have many past lives and many stories, going back to the time I was a small furry mammal and beyond.

If I hadn't tried to steal some of that dinosaur's dinner I wouldn't have such an interesting story to tell.

Little did that T-Rex know, my descendants would be eating his descendants cooked, by meteor fire.

At the first flash of light we ran for our tunnels. T-Rex could only look up and think "What...???"

and I didn't die then and I'm still alive, so I guess I've been living simultaneous parallel lives or something.

In your past life, you were a great Greek army commander. You were the highest authority when it came to the Romans, and you've calculated every possible outcome from the war, except one - that your second in command was in fact a roman spy! Booo.
Now, you know better than to trust people easily. You are very smart and friendly, but also a little more suspicious.

Burned at the stake for being a witch in Salem
Ever felt like you had a sixth sense but never knew where that was coming from? Well now you know!
In your past life, you were a woman living in Salem, Massachusetts, who was declared a witch and sentenced to death by fire.
Sure, you had a little something extra, and you just knew things with no real reason why, but you've always used this knowledge for good.
It's a shame that some people would prefer hurting you because you're a little different than them - instead of just try and open their minds. This one is valid nowadays too.



. seems appropriate. i was a sacrifice. i love these tests. i will have to go get mine. seems to work, lol. ah ha. thanks tuesday. and lynn, as i say, i love these tests. soon tuesday?

So I guess we know who you were, eh?

Since more people in this thread alone died at Woodstock than was actually the case, I question the veracity of the quiz. Especially since some of them were nowhere near Yasgur's farm at that time.

were actually DUers who were born before Woodstock.

Ok it wasn't the most scientific of quizzes but I liked my answer.

http://www.answers.com/Q/What_were_the_Names_of_people_who_died_at_Woodstock_at_1969

But I'd like to think that in a previous life I was Richad Bieler although perhaps the reason he was run over by a tractor was because he was OD'ing at the time and didn't realize the tractor was coming at him.

... is that Woodstock is considered far enough in the "past" to be part of this quiz. Fifty years just doesn't seem like a very long time, especially if you've lived through them.
