Okay, so if two identical twins put on a heart rate monitor that after let's say 400 million beats were detected (at 80bpm that's about 10 years) the monitor killed them. Now one gets in a spaceship and the other stays on earth. The one in the spaceship travels at say 95% of the speed of light. Now let's say the twin returns after 8 years in space traveling at that speed. According to time relativity the one who stayed on Earth should be much older now compared to the other twin who just returned... So that heart beat counter should kill the one who stayed on Earth first correct? As he should reach the 400 million beats first from when they both put the monitor on back when the twin left. Meaning that your heart rate slows down when traveling near the speed of light?
