Honestly, thats pretty metal. Most people see their own lives when they die and he gets to see everything? Thats awesome.

I must be missing something with all of the "too soon" responses to this. It's honoring the man, not mocking him.
-
I think it can be read two ways, I read it as mocking that everything he worked for being unveiled to him mere seconds before dying, like a slap in the face sort of thing
-
It plays on the concept of your life flashing before your eyes before you die, and saying that a man like Hawking would see not just his own life but that of the entire universe. Coming from a site like The Onion, I think it's a tribute he himself would have appreciated.
-
Yeah, upon reading it again I did see it the second way,but my initial reaction was errrr
-
Remember too that hawking had a brilliant sense of humour, he would have loved this joke.

This is a a genuine homage to one of the greatest minds the world has seen. It's not a "too soon" moment people.

Why is people offended by this? This is actually a great homage to Stephen Hawking!
-
Not offended, just really surprised/impressed at the speed they posted this at. I mean the man's body is still warm.
