Question: why do we die

Hugh Harvey answered on 11 Mar 2015:

Well, as you know, everyone dies. It’s just a fact of life.

People die for lots of different reasons, some from illness, some from accidents, and some just from being far too old!

As we get older our bodies change, and become less good at looking after themselves. Our hearts get weak, and our brains lose the ability to think properly. Eventually we just get too old and frail to carry on living.
