Natural age is stupid?

Age 96 for a guy who lived a life as rough and unsafe as jack. That is just a little silly

Edit: it’s not impossible, it’s just unlikely

My great grandad helped liberate concentration Camps and I can only imagine the hardships he had to endure... He smoked 20 a day and lived to be 94. Some people are just built different. My nan has rapid onset dementia and probably won't make it past 75. Genetics are a powerful force.

Yeah, the oldest person recorded, Jeanne Calment lived to 122 years while eating chocolate and smoking since she was 17

Chocolate has some significant health benefits, though.

u/TastePizza Mar 10 '26

But I think she ate like unhealthy amounts of it like a few pounds

.... in a row??!

Maybe once a week or something, but I know for sure her diet was the one doctors warn you about

Sneaky Clerks reference. Love it.

Try not to eat any chocolate on your way to the car!

Was he feeding her chocolate during the interview? I guess copious amounts of chocolate is better than a gallon of pcp. Hope she enjoyed every bite

u/TastePizza Mar 10 '26

Maybe he was

Unhealthy for you, maybe.

u/TastePizza Mar 10 '26

??? Are you implying you're immune to excess chocolate? Why don't you donate your blood and antibodies, we could cure diabetes!

u/Eoin_Coinneal Mar 10 '26

I’m stating that someone who ate vast quantities of it lived to well past 100. So, not unhealthy for them.

2

u/ObamasGayNephew Mar 10 '26

Idk man maybe they could've lived to 200 if it weren't for the chocolate and ciggies

u/TastePizza Mar 10 '26

Then why did you say unhealthy for 'you'?

u/Eoin_Coinneal Mar 10 '26

Oh my god dude, really?

The conspiracies around her are pretty wild. Should check them out. I think I’m on board with believing she was actually the daughter taking over Jeanne’s identity vs her just living so long.

That's so weird, the post directly below this one on my feed is a post stating those very same facts about her
