Smell for sure. You go without it for a couple of days every year.

Probably smell.

I'd get rid of smell first, then touch, then taste, than hearing, the sight.

if you lost smell first wouldnt you pretty much lose taste anyways? when i have a cold i cant smell or taste anything but the gross stuff is onlyyy in my nose

good point.... then switch touch and smell.

id do touch first because maybe i would lose my pain receptors, smell and taste would be in the middle because they are so interwoven, and finally hearing and sight would last because life without them would be pretty sucky.

Yeah. Other than the obvious sense I wouldn't want to lose (Hearing, sight, touch), I depend on smell more than taste. I smell my food before I eat it. Think about it, if you're somewhere, and there's a fire near by, how would you know? Say you couldn't see it. But, you would smell the smoke, though. I'd miss the taste of chocolate, though.

Yep, taste. So I could eat healthily.

If you lost taste you could be really fit and healthy!

I find it interesting that so many people would chose touch as one of the first. Sure, it might seem nice to not be able to feel pain, but then you would have no way of knowing if you cut yourself badly and are going to bleed to death. You couldn’t pick things up either without looking at your hand. If you didn’t look, you wouldn’t know if you’re touching the object, or if you’re gripping it too hard or too soft. Walking would also be a challenge. Ever sat on your legs for so long that they fell asleep, and then tried walking? That’s what it would be like. I once almost broke my ankle because I couldn’t feel that I was trying to walk incorrectly. @OP, I would lose my sense of smell first. I hardly pay attention to it, anyway. Then taste, hearing, sight, and finally, touch. Touch being last because, as stated above, it’s so necessary to function.

I would say definitely smelling is the least important, because it barely helps you in life, and when you are in public bathrooms, you would be able to breathe through your nose... :)

Let's just all be thankful we have our senses.

About the knife thing, if you had sight and no touch a person could walk up behind you stab you and keep on walking, you wouldn't know you have been stabbed until you could see the blood around you but by then it is probably to late. If you had touch instead of sight, the same senariocould happen but you would feel the pain and it would indicate to your brain to go get help. Without touch many of your natural instincts of survival would be taken. With sight you have a fight or flight instinct of danger but with touch when you get hurt your brain sends out signals like adrenaline and red blood cells to clot your blood but if you didn't feel the pain no signal would be sent out through your nerves telling your body to funtion in the way. Also you could hurt yourself very bad like breaking your leg but keep walking on it because you don't know its broken and then you could damage it to a point where it doesnt work anymore and then you wouldn't be able to walk at all.
