DBWI - What If Jesus Christ Had Been Executed As A Younger Man?

I was thinking about this earlier, what if Jesus had been executed as a false preacher, prophet or something unashamedly inciteful like proclaiming to be 'king' of the Jews due to unfiltered, admittedly fevered and almost ferocious preaching from his late 20's onwards?

I can't imagine he'd last past 35 or so within the Roman occupied states.

EDIT - Removed the references to Jesus as a 2000 year old man.

Our contemporary understanding of that era in that part of the world would not be as rich and complete as it is, as the works of Jesus-bar-Joseph have provided us with crucial information about the Jewish-Roman Wars and are important literary source material for understanding the context of the Dead Sea Scrolls and post-Babylonian Captivity Judaism.
 
Had Jesus been executed at a younger age, his later teachings would not have been taught and it would be much harder (if not impossible) for Christianity to gain a foothold and survive.
