Because, his hate made him live in. Like Maw in Dark Forces 2. The Dark Side can fill you with such power that, when you twist it, it will allow you to survive the most harsh abuse.

I can understand why having his limbs severed diddnt kill him. He obviously wouldnt bleed to death. The heat of the saber would seal the wound. Any body not connected to the force would probably die from shock, but strong with the force anakin was. Did lava even touch anakin? I thought he just burned up from the sheer heat. If lava did infact touch him, he would be dead, no jedi bound in organic flech would be able to survive a bath in lava.

His two legs and remaining arm were cut off. That's hardly enough to kill someone, especially when bleeding to death is an impossibility due to cauterization. As for the burning, lots of people survive severe burns. Besides, he didn't have to live forever afterwards. He only had to live long enough until he was transferred to the suit.
It looked to me that he did die, right before Palpy got there. Then the way Palpy put his hands over him it looked like he was bringing him back to life.
No, he lived. In addition, for evidence of living while under horrific woulnds, look at Darth Sion. He has several THOUSAND fractures to EACH bone, and still managed to live, and whoop serious ass.

After seeing the movie I also was wondering if Sidious really had the power to bring people back to life or make them keep living. It kind of looked like it when he puts his hand on Anakin's head.
Jesus christ, If Palpitine had the ability of reanimating the dead, then there is no way in hell he would have been opposed. anyone who can bring back the dead and weild the force to your liking is a God
