A Swedish inventor has created a watch with a display that counts down to the year, month, day, hour and second that you are going to die.
Who would want such a watch? According to its creator, Fredrik Colting, the purpose of the watch is to encourage people to make the most of the time they have left.
Imagine, for instance, if someone told you you only had one year left to live. How would that change the way you lived your life?
