I would love this... I am mainly nocturnal anyway and I would get to live twice as long!

you extend your life significantly by migrating to one of the polar circles and being exposed to sunlight for days/months at a time

If you're wanting to remain a tree deliberately I'm sure it would be possible to rig up suitably sun-like artificial lighting to do it for as long as desired.

Wake up with two heads. The other head is that of a perfect stranger who is just as surprised to wake up like this as you are. Each of you controls just one side of your shared body.

I could see this working out relatively well as a global thing. Humanity would simply become nocturnal, though people working at particular jobs could stay "awake" through the day by staying indoors or maybe wearing protective clothing.

I live in a city that's quite far north so things would get kind of interesting here - during the winter I don't normally see the Sun anyway (it's dark when I leave for work and when I come home), and during the summer there'd be only a fairly brief window of darkness at night.
