This is a list of people claimed to be immortal. This list does not reference purely spiritual entities (spirits, gods, demons, angels), non humans (monsters, aliens, elves), or artificial life (artificial intelligence, robots). This list comprises people claimed to achieve a deathless existence on Earth. This list does not contain those people who are supposed to have attained immortality through the typical means of a religion, such as a Christian in Heaven. It also does not include people whose immortality involves living in a place not on Earth, such as Heracles on Mount Olympus or the Eight Immortals of Taoism in Mount Penglai. It also does not include people who, according to their religion, became deities or actually were deities the whole time, such as Jesus of Nazareth (who as part of the Trinity was, according to Christianity, also God) or Parashurama according to Hindu mythology.

These listings are in chronological order, though some dates are approximate. Ziusudra, the last king of Sumer prior to the Great Flood. His story is known from only a single fragmented tablet datable by its script to the 17th century BC. He was commanded to build a boat by the god Enki and the tablet describes the flood. After a break in the text, Ziusudra is described prostrating himself to the gods An and Enlil, who grant him immortality. Endymion, a shepherd in the Mount Latmus of Asia Minor. Selene fell in love with him at first sight, but Endymion is a mortal, would eventually die naturally, so Selene asked Zeus to grant Endymion eternal life, but the price was long sleep. Endymion still maintained a beautiful face and a gratifying smile after he fell asleep. Selene was deeply moved by Endymion's beauty, so she would spy on him in the cave every night. Tithonus, who in Greek mythology was granted eternal life but not eternal youth. He was transformed into a grasshopper. Ashwatthama, a Kaurava warrior from the Mahabharata, cursed by Krishna following the Kurukshetra War for his attempt to end the Pandava lineage after the cessation of hostilities. He is regarded to be a chiranjivi, an immortal being, who still roams the world with foul smelling fluids oozing from his form. Hanuman, a vanara figure from the Ramayana and a companion of Rama, is described to be immortal in Hindu epics. He is believed to live in the Himalayas. The Wandering Jew (b. 1st century BC), a Jewish shoemaker. According to legend, he taunted Jesus on his way to crucifixion. Jesus cursed him to "go on forever till I return." Thus, the Wandering Jew is to live until the second coming of Jesus. John the Apostle (AD 6–101), one of Jesus's followers. Some Latter Day Saints, in conjunction with their own scriptures, interpret the biblical scripture found at John 21:21 23 to mean that John will tarry or remain on the earth until the Second Coming. The Three Nephites (between AD 34 and 35), three men described in the Book of Mormon who are given power over death in order to fulfill their desire to minister among men until Jesus comes again. Markandeya, a sage who was granted the boon of immortality at the age of sixteen by the Hindu deity Shiva after he was saved from the noose of the god of death, Yama. Sir Galahad (born 2nd 6th century), one of the three Arthurian knights to find the Holy Grail. Of these questing knights, Galahad is the only one to have achieved immortality by it.

Morgan le Fay (c. 480 – ), Enchantress from the legend of King Arthur. Nicolas Flamel (c. 1330 – ), a French scribe and manuscript seller.

Gilgamesh (possibly reigned during the 26th century BC) after the death of his companion, Enkidu, Gilgamesh pursues immortality to avoid Enkidu's fate. Gilgamesh fails two tests and does not become immortal, realising instead that mortals attain immortality through lasting works of civilization and culture. Gilgamesh's story is among the oldest stories recorded. Qin Shi Huang, the First Emperor of China who reigned during 259 BC–210 BC, also sought immortality in his old age. Twice he sent hundreds of people under the direction of Xu Fu to find the legendary elixir of life, but failed. He allegedly died of mercury poisoning after he had eaten too many mercury pills, prescribed by his court doctors to make him immortal.
