Will you die in the next 5 years? Answering these questions will tell you the answer…

The short online test, dubbed the Ubble Test, is reportedly 80% accurate in predicting how likely you are to die in the next five years.

Depending on your gender, it will ask you to answer 11-13 questions about your background, lifestyle and health.

These will quiz you on everything, from how many children you have, to how often you have smoked in your lifetime, to how fast your average walking speed is.

Based on your answers, the calculator will then display your five-year risk of dying from any cause and the ‘Ubble age’ that corresponds to that risk.

Eep.

Dr Erik Ingelsson, from Uppsala University, in southern Sweden, said: “Each question is representative of something - the number of cars owned by someone is most likely a proxy for their social-economic group.

“Walking fast would not decrease your risk of dying, but if you are walking slowly it could be a predictor of bad health - such as heart disease.”

The test, which can be taken by anyone aged between 40 and 70 years old, can be taken here.
