How do these two correspond with each other?

I had a very similar thing, only I threw a 14 story building out of a pool and hit a kid on a paper aeroplane.


The Flood is just this awesome :D

Spacetime.

One does not choose a destiny, his destiny is bestowed, shaped and formed, from the soul.

Don't you age slower in space

No, but your perception of time is altered. If you were going extremely fast (near speed of light) then yes, you would age slower.

I don't need no stinking signature!

The idea is that all objects technically have a set velocity at the speed of light, and that 'time' is actually a direction you move in, a 4th dimesion of space.

Increase your velocity in space, and your velocity in time decreases, since net velocity can't change. As you approach the speed of light, your velocity in time reaches zero. Likewise, if you somehow became perfectly still in space, you'd go through time with full velocity and age very quickly while everything else would seemingly freeze.
