Yeah it sounds great at first, but when you really think about it, pain is saving you from more trouble.
Of course, that's only acute pain and there are other kinds, but in general nature had a very good reason to equip us with a feeling like pain.

There is an illness where people dont feel any pain. Most of them die fairly young.
What? My arm is broken? Damn, didn't feel anything! That's why I dropped the hammer on my foot. Ups, that seems broken, too! What about my ribs, still not puncturing my lung?
(slightly exaggerated example)

yes it's a rare but very dangerous disease, and like you said most people die too young because they simply didn't have pain as a protective mechanism ..
