Depends. Perhaps they mean immortal but not indestructable?
What if the person can be desinigrated? (Don't know if I spelled that right).
What if your skin gets burned, but it regenerates? Wouldn't that suggest that you burn away all the nerve cells that make you experience pain? Perhaps through all the pain, you faint or go into a comma due to the blood being taken out from the burning to the bone? Then maybe you get picked up by another species? (If you believe alien life exists).
All those things are possible, but the only information I had to go on was that I would never die. But even if pain was not an issue, and even if I could stand eons of emptiness and loneliness, I wouldn't want to live forever. Like I said, the transience of beauty and experience is what appeals to me about life.
If you had the chance to live forever, would you want to?

Just my thoughts on the matter...

Yeah, I was just throwing out some possibilities out there. I see your point.
