8 Mind-Blowing Bits Of Sci-Fi Tech That You Will Live To See

Right, first things first, you're probably going to live a long time. Presuming you live in a developed country and don't get hit by a bus or fall off anything high, the progress in medical science (past, present and future) probably puts your life expectancy comfortably into the hundreds.
