No,I wouldn’t. My title will tell you the reason.
Would you drink from that fountain?

I probably would, as long as I could still die, eternal youth, not eternal life. That’s confusing though.

  Not at all confusing to me. But I think every age has it’s own importance and fun,I wonder if I was even able to explain it properly.

This reminded me of one of the poetry by Tennyson..Tithonus. It is one of my favorite poem.
Everything must die.
