Whales can live to 300 years old because they dont enage in shit like the knock out game or doing stunts for tiktok views. It's a miracle most of us make it to 15.

Heart rate is the common denominator.
Exercise - lower Heart rate
Sleep - lower heart rate
Diet - lower Heart rate
No stress - lower Heart rate
No drugs - lower Heart rate.
You only get so many beats.

If I make to 105 I'll have lived in 2 different millenia, and 3 different centuries.

[thegreatest]

Lifespan is dropping due to a toxic world.

[bobhrobor]

Just spoken with a tree from my Garden. It says all is true what you heard here

[DrHorn-umhu]

How many supercentenarians were on Metformin, NMN and Resveratrol?

[HalfassDIY]

Don't forget basic biophysics. There is a reason big things live longer. R^3/R^2

[YiannisANO]

The only issue is that i want to be healthy, mostly in the mind, at 100. If im 100 but full of problems i’d rather die earlier

[luisalfredsegura]

If I’m working out about 1 hour 5 days per week should I still eat one meal per day ? Or can I do 2 meals per day ?

[joebanks]

Rather live 1 day as a Lion then 100 as a Goat

[mikej]

Just gotta watch out for gates and Klaus schwab

[chriscarlone]

I would rather just die. I feel like its fitting to the totality of existence you know. Feels like the closing of a story, a chapter in a book somewhere. Why live forever?

[keplerthe]

I think by the end of this generation, the human lifespan will have been reduced because of the unhealthy choices we have nowadays. Mc Donalds is basically on every corner.

[btcave]

There is likely a upper limit on the human mind.

[kaiyote]

Whales float in the ocean. Trees are stationary plants. Seriously different organisms from a terrestrial mammal.

Quality of life over length of life for me please.

[snowmiser]

I want to decide who lives and who dies.

[funkymystic]

What if the upper limit to the human lifespan is inversely proportional to humanity’s detrimental impact on our habitat?

[rickyteee]

If I live to 120, my future girlfriends hasn’t been born yet

[musingsOfADopamineAddict]

He just said we could live a long time because trees live for thousands.... That's the dumbest shit I've ever heard.

[anewman]

Whales have the same number of heartbeats in their lifetimes as humans.. about 1 billion. We just need to slow our hearts down lol
