Guest Fishtank Posted January 12, 2010 Share Posted January 12, 2010 This is a pretty interesting look into areas of the world that have a high percentage of people over 100 years old. They take into account diet, social life, religion and physical activity to see why these people live so long http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=I-jk9ni4XWk Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

pcock Posted January 12, 2010 Share Posted January 12, 2010 if you live to 100 then your doing something wrong. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest Rambo Posted January 12, 2010 Share Posted January 12, 2010 Anyone here who makes it to 100 probably wont die for 1000's of years because life extension technologies will be prolonging life by a smallish (probably small anyway) amount at first and during these extra years of life, the techniques will be refined, or new ones will replace them. So you'll be buying time, to buy more time in order to buy more time and so on. if you live to 100 then your doing something wrong. that french woman who lived to 120 odd smoked until she was about 110 or something... not that smoking is living...

Siegecow Posted January 12, 2010 Share Posted January 12, 2010 Im pretty sure long life like that is much more attributed to genetics than lifestyle choices. Though thats not to say lifestyle doesnt make a difference. I just dont think its going to make you live 3 decades longer than youre "supposed to" so much as help you make it to 75 or 85 instead of dying at a fatty cancerous 60-70 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest Rambo Posted January 12, 2010 Share Posted January 12, 2010 Yeah i definitely agree. Just get some exercise, eat your veg and don't worry about it. Being someone who's into futurism and all that kind of stuff you see people who are way too obsessive about measuring everything they do. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

modey Posted January 12, 2010 Share Posted January 12, 2010 i can barely imagine myself living to 70, let alone 100+. i see all these elderly people who have a permanent angry expression on their face and think 'fuck that shit'. even if there is the prospect of seeing some fuckin' amazing technological breakthroughs, by the time i'm 70+ i'll probably be too old to learn anything new anyway.
