He came upon the God Unthapaisn who had been gifted with the gift of immortality he could live forever and ever he gave Gilgamesh a chance at immortality and he failed. 

More Details 

Gilgamesh knew that if he did not find himself Death would find him first just because he was an arrogant superman that did not his worth in the world he just went about as he could get what he want when he wanted it and no one could stop him.
