He could still walk, talk, drive and have fun with his 90 year old girlfriend (not necessarily have sex)He smoked a bunch of cigars everyday and drank 4 cups of straight whiskey, ate a lof of ice cream and slept very little.How in the hell did he accomplished this?
He won the genetic lottery. And he probably did all those bad habits in moderation. That "bunch of cigars" was probably only one a week, that 4 cups of whiskey was over the course of a week, and "eating a lot of ice cream" was probably just 1 pint over the course of a week.
>>75723206This nigger had no idea when he was born probably, centenarians are all grifters
>>75723206>HowProbably lied about his birthday. If not, possibly placebo in action and he lived with an empty mind in the present moment, and just didn't commit crimes which is what ends up getting most blacks
>>75723212Most "oldest people" were smokers. Some health things are just memes.
>>75723206My great aunt just turned 101 and she still lives alone and drives. She smokes half a pack a day and only drinks whisky because "water rusts the pipes." I think a big part of it is that her generation wasn't actively being poisoned by their food and water as she was growing up. Also, some people are just built to live longer.
>>75723206he returned to monke
>>75723212The bunch of cigars was 12 Tampa Sweets a day. He lit them on the stove. Shit cigars, but kinda based. But yeah, he was built different. A lot of centenarians smoke and drink. Jeanne Calment quit smoking cigs when she was 117 because her eyesight was going and she had too much pride to ask for a light, but kept drinking. Batuli Lamichhane at 112 had been smoking for 95 years and chain smoking 30 cigarettes a day for a long time. These people are anomalies. Cool from an academic perspective, but not good to emulate.
>>75723206The real key is stress. My drunkest, methsmoking uncle is going to outlive all of his siblings (as long as he doesn’t accidentally crush himself working on trucks without jack stands) because the man doesn’t do anything that stresses him out. If he starts getting hassled by a girlfriend, she’s gone in a week. If he has a customer who’s a prick, he dumps their disassembled vehicle off at their house with his tilt deck and gives them a full refund. He’s 70 and and has a lower resting hear rate than I do, despite the fact that he smokes meth and stays up 2 days straight working on cars without eating.
its literally all geneticshealth & fitness moves your longetivity a few percentage points, but genetics (and maybe stress) is king
My great-grandmother died at 103 years old. According to my grandparents she smoked a whole cigar pretty much every day. A lot of my maternal family died very fucking old even though they were chain smoker and drank enough cheap liquor to kill a horse and now ,for some reason, the generation of my mother can't get past 60 because of cancer.
>>75723206my grandmother is turning 102 in a couple weeks. She has had serious dementia for several years now, but didn't start to have major cognitive decline until around 2019. She still lives in her house and has 24/7 home health aides to watch her. She basically just sits in a chair and watches tv. She doesn't really speak, and certainly doesn't recognize me. It's very sad, she was such an intelligent person, but now she is simply continuing to exist. I feel bad for my mom who has sacrificed a lot to care for her, and my dad who still has to help care for his mother in law when he's 69 years old. My parents also were counting on inheriting from her to help fund their retirement (grandma had been a factory owner, and had a significant amount of money), but her estate has essentially been exhausted to fund her continuing medical expenses so my mom's inheritance (when it does come, who knows when) will not be what she was counting on. She's already had to retire, and not as comfortable as she had hoped. My parents are basically just living off their social security checks and that's it, they had no real savings at the time of retirement.On the other hand I think about how much my mom has sacrificed for her mom and it alarms me to think not what I'll have to do for her when she gets old but what's going to happen to me since I don't have any kids. If not for my mom's dedicated care and management, grandma would have been in a nursing home and almost certainly died years ago. She also moved in when grandma got too old to handle her finances, after we discovered she had been swindled by an unscrupulous contractor who sold her a lot of things for her house that she absolutely didn't need, then blatantly overcharged her for services he hadn't done, because her dementia made it so she didn't realize she'd been swindled.
>>75725608Not everybody will read your essay, but I read it. I hope everything turns out okay for your mom and grand-mama
>>75723206It's just statistics man. There's billions of humans. How many of them live to be this long? Of those who have, how many had shitty habits? The answer is simple - not fucking many. That's what makes this guy so special, the fact that he exists is a miracle of statistics. Nothing you do ever guarantees your death, but when rolling the dice, do you really wanna roll with less 6's? Just live healthy man.
>>75723206>The secret of longevity?It's genetics. It's always genetics. Look at how many people die in their before they even reach 40. Life expectancy is going up but its still incredibly rare. For example the estimated rates for centenarians in USA (people that live to be 100 or older) is only 25/100000 or 0.00025% or 1/4000 to simplify. Japan's rate is only 3x better than that so still very few.So you just need to get lucky. 1 in 4000 which is still huge, imagine your entire high school population, assuming your school was 4000 which is massive, only one student you know will likely live to be 100.
>>75723206the secret to longevity is wearing your damn seatbelt in the car every time for starters.
>>75723206you left out the part where he praised god or something like that
>>75723255>water rusts the pipesbasteyou should breed her
>>75726052my Yamaha lacks a seatbelt
>>75723206Both of my granddads were light smokers and light drinkers who played sports into their 80s and lived into their 90s. I think a lot of it was just not being sedentary.
>>75723206it's weightshow me all the fat 100yr olds. there's always statistical outliers in every group but one thing is 100% certain, you will never have a chance at a long life if you're fat.
>>75723255Baste. My gma and gpa lived to mid-90s so I should hit 100 if I don't get ass cancer or something retarded
>>75726186even more of it is luck
>>75726295>[does a *fairly good* job of preventing and treating ass cancer]
>>75726309Neat.
>>75726309This is in pineapples, mostly in the core and the peel
>>75723206when I was a mid teen I got my parents to quit smoking cigarettes. I gave them some filter tip things that gradually reduced nicotine.. within a few years my father developed Alzheimer's never mind the age question he was mid 40's when I was born and also had full dentures and hearing loss from being a B=1y pilot in WWII so who knows but I had to wonder hearing the link between nic and lower Alzheimer's risk that if I didn't dislike having their cig smoke in my face at dinner he would have been ok....he also drank whisky like a half gallon a week between him and mom and I got them to quit that too
>>75726309you might as well take lycopene too so you don't get prostate cancer either
>>75723255>I think a big part of it is that her generation wasn't actively being poisonedanon everybody around them was probably smoking 24/7 their mothers were probably smoking and drinking while pregnant and they had lead in their paint and gasoline
>>75725608That's 100% on your mom. Her needless attachment to your grandma essentially will cost you your life unless you break their cycle.
>>75723206He looks like the turtle guy from Kung Fu panda
>>75727971So we should bring back pre natal smoking and tetraethyl lead?
>>75723206I know this guy's grand nephew or whatever, he was actually pretty fit and didn't smoke or drink much at all, at least not how they made it seem
I think the nicotine and alcohol in the right dose preserves you out of pure relaxation. If you're a healthy hypochondriac, the stress your brain creates will kill you way faster than a chill smoker.
>>75726159basedalso he ate canned soup
>>75728060You should respect your elders, without them you wouldn't even exist.
>>75723212My great uncle lived until he was 94 and every morning he had 3 shots of vodka, one with oj, one with grape juice, and one with cranberry. If he lived that long he was blessed with a great dna repair system and cell regeneration.
>>75728555After a certain age they are useless and basically life support husks. Stop your useless attachment
>>75723217Yeah, those 110 year old grifters.
>>75723206is it worth it if you look like a corpse? I guess it would make halloween fun
>>75724161He didn't actually smoke the cigars, he didn't inhale the smoke
>>75728618>is it worth it if you look like a corpse?after a certain point in your life, you aren't really going to care how you look. The only thing you are going to care about is if you can still move around and enjoy life
>>75723206Faked birth certificate to get someone's else pension or benefits
>>75728618>>75728794Consider the fact that Adapalene did get FDA approval until this guy was 110 years old and he probably never used it. The technology for not looking like a corpse is significantly improving.
>>75728614That’s the grift retard. They’re not actually that old. A bunch of centenarians aren’t even real living people too they are just perpetually collected benefits checks.
>>75728882I'm sure there are real grifters, but the Wikipedia on the OP guy says he served in the Army in his 30s and was the son of a judge, so I'm sort of inclined to think he was actually the real same guy the whole time.
>>75728882Oh look, it's this guy again.
Tobacco is actually good for you
>>75729177If that were true my dad would still be alive and not dead of jaw and throat cancer. He was barely 64.
>>75729179He used poisoned store brand cigarettes, cigars don't have these chemicals in them
>>75724801incredibly based, godspeed to your uncle
>>75723206
>>75729212>t. knower
>>75729200His high stress corporate job sister who’s appointed herself his keeper and finally got him to a doctor for the first time since he got out of jail in the 90s is malding hard about how much healthier he is than her. It’s pretty funny.I do wish he’d been less of a piece of shit to his sons though.
