Yeah, maybe the only possible way to live that long is to live on a secluded island with pure air, water and organic food, without wars, stress and worries of the modern world. But in that case why live 100+ years if life goes past you?
It is also not conducive to longevity. Michael Jackson slept in a hyperbaric chamber and he led a pretty decent life, take care of yourself, but it did not help him to live long. On the other hand there are homeless people who live 80+

Yes, some homeless people can live for a rather long time. It all depends on each person, all the organisms are different and they need different conditions for a normal existence.

146 years old - do we have some real evidence to back this claim up?

LOL.. Can you even imagine? A life without cable TV, internet, FaceBook, Instagram, Twitter, Skype, WhatsApp.etc. Can you even survive for one week on such a location? Anyway, what is the point in living up to 100 years, if you can't enjoy your life?

In order to survive in such a place without the benefits of civilization, one must prepare for the fact that one will have to extract food, live in the open air and love loneliness very much.

Well, we all must go. I hope he died at home, calm and surrounded by his family.

Our body is designed for 200-300 years of life. Only it is necessary to lead a correct way of life.

We're actually living far longer than previous generations, heck, far longer than those from more ancient civilizations that supposedly got everything figured out. This is despite all the pollution and the food we're eating. Even citizens in third-world countries would live longer than the middle-class in say, ancient Egypt.

I wouldn't mind living up to 300 as long as I look just 30. Unfortunately, I'll probably just look like a raisin.

I don't know true or not, but if it is true then imagine how his life changed from the moment of birth. He has witnessed 2 world wars, the advent of electricity. Started with horses and ended car. In the 20th century had the most changes. I would also like to see what will come up in the future.

He was residing in the island of Jawa, which was more or less unaffected by the world wars. Also, there was no internet or social media at that time. He might have heard about the world war a few times, but I bet he might have had no idea about the participants or the cause.

I don't think there'll ever be another century like the 20th again. Just think of the leaps that took place. From flight being a pipe dream to landing on the moon.

The future seems to be getting poxier and more introverted by the day. When I was born they were still talking about Mars bases. Now the shit that gets the most media coverage is a redesigned home button on an IPhone.

I was watching stuff from the 90s the other day. Internet aside, nothing's changed. People dress the same, talk the same, the music and films from back then could be released today and no one would notice any difference.

There is pretty much nothing interchangeable between the 50s and the 70s. The last truly charismatic decade was the 80s, and maybe not for the most appealing reasons.

Progress seems to have disappeared up a tech arse while the rest of the world stagnates.

Hmm. What could be easier to achieve? Live for over 20 years longer than any other recorded human being...

Or claim to?

No. I have read in a few scientific journals that the maximum possible theoretical lifespan for humans is around 130 years. And in this particular case, I think that some one has rigged the census records. I don't think that this guy was 146 when he passed away.

Good point. Last year oldest person passing away was bed-ridden french woman. She was close to 125, I think. Not even year later we have a person, whose relatives claim he was 146... guys, I mean come on  Wink not to rip on the dude, I am sure he lived his life the best he could and had his fair share of stories to tell. But lets not throw fact out of the window just for the sake of story.

There is no proof that it was real age of that person, he didn't had documents.
I also in past have read that one guy from China who lived 256 years, but I can't believe that's true.
People are not designed to live that long. Some people can live up to 100-110 years, but at very old age people have lot of diseases and whole body and organs aren't working perfectly anymore.
And still, in many poor countries people are living only for 50-55 years in average, like it was many centuries back.

the bible says so. there are characters in the bible that says he live more than 800 years old. i think that was moses. either moses or abraham. but why would you want to live that long? all you friends are already dead by the time you're 80. relieve yourself. there are more sufferings already. scratching your ass everyday with all the skin diseases is not that easy while you are 80.

If the Bible says so...
I guess it's much better to trust the Bible than to actually think about the billions of examples of people living barely until 60 years old.


It is necessary to look at the facts, not the religious writings. Previously, generally because of the low level of medicine, some up to 30 hardly survived.

Yeah but even with hardcore medecine most people barely live after 80 ^^

It's ridiculous to suggest that bodies are made for 200 years of life... If that was the case why is average lifetime 80 years at max in the most developped countries in the world?

Even the richest man in the world - Rockefeller managed to live only 108 years. Here everything depends on the individuality of each organism.

I would not recommend you to believe in such studies. If they were right they specifically gave the recipe following which guaranteed it would be possible to live 130 years. But the same is not. So it's not a study but just a guess.

What exactly are you smoking?
Could you care to explain how it is designed for 200-300 years and no one ever made it to 200?

I think that this is possible only for the elect, the one who understands why he should live so long and he can do something useful for others around this time.

no. the environment during those times aren't yet polluted just as it is today to which currently the lifespan of human life will just be a hundred. during thise times, the oxygen found in the air are higher than how much is found these days.
