I don't know anything about astronomy really but i read a similar theory to the one you mentioned i think the theory you're talking about is called "the big crunch". I also remember the article discussing another theory called the "big freeze" where the unviverse expands to such a size that it becomes to cold to sustain life or something like that. Hope someone can help you out on this, i'd like to see the answer to that question as well lol. Awesome idea for a thread btw.
