People always say they want to live long and become old. Work in a geriatric hospital for some time. This will teach you to be cautious with your wishes. Life can be cruel. Or miserable. Or disgraceful. Or lonely. Wish for a painless, healthy life instead - no matter how long or short that will last.

I couldn't agree more.

Seen it two times

If I remember correctly he remember it-He wakes and remember it's the same day again.

In my alternative version this guy does not remember his heart stopped beating due to extremely exitment and are getting woken by his alarm clock same day.

And this is why I asked wouldn't this be cruel.

Feeling the happiness having won the Jackpot in Euromillions over and over again and never will get the chance to use them.

You could say he is in a eternal loop.

Since he doesn't remember it, he only ever experiences the excitement once from his point of view; it is always the "first" time for him. So, in my opinion, it wouldn't be cruel from his perspective.

That's torn it...

Dowly is absolutely right

Seeing it from his perspective - it is not cruel

When it comes to others his colleges, family and friends it's normal life. Days goes by

An additional question popped up in my head.

People around Jack how would they experience this ?

They get up Friday 13th...go to bed wake Saturday 14th, but jack wake up Friday 13th again...so how would they experience this ?

They would experience it like we all experience life, in this case they'd learn that Jack had died the day before. They'd mourn his passing and talk about his sh!tty luck.

Reminds me of a documentary I read a few years ago.
