A new survey by CBS asked people who they'd like to be if they were reincarnated, and the number one answer was . . . their own grandchild. The number two was a dog. 

We all know it's inevitable, eventually you're going to die. If you believe in reincarnation you probably have thought this over at least once or twice. If you get to pick what you can come back as, what or whom would you be?

In a new survey by "60 Minutes" and "Vanity Fair", people were asked that question.  Here are the top four things people said.

1. Their own grandchild-34%

2. A healthy dog with loving owners-25%

3. A prince or princess of a small, peaceful country-20%

4. A brilliant loner who only becomes famous after after death-8%

Some other interesting answers came up in the survey. It was found that 14% of people think science can prove if the afterlife exists, and 63% of of the people surveyed believe people who have near-death experiences really do see heaven.
