It was simply SELF DENIAL he was talking about. So it hit me that when he said some will not taste death til they see the son of man coming, he meant some would not deny themselves then, but would have their lives taken later and never regained! Ands their lives in deed were later taken to never return to them again!

So how does your interpretation take into account the fact that Jesus said in verse 27 that at his coming, he would reward
every man??
Matt 16
27 For the Son of man shall come in the glory of his Father with his angels;
and then he shall reward every man according to his works.
28 Verily I say unto you,
There be some standing here, which shall not taste of death, till they see the Son of man coming in his kingdom.
