Happy birthday, 117 year old lady.

example someone that eat and live on mountain has a higher chance to long life
Meanwhile when stay on the town, we pftem eat meat and also absorb traffic's pollution that decrease our life

Felt much better since i quit eating red meat and anytime i get stuck having to grab a beef burger somewhere i feel like shit. I still eat fish and other lean protein, mostly vegetarian diet. Red meat sucks.

There are many factors when it comes to how old a person can live to be, from genetics, to quality of life, mental state,advancement of medicine.. etc.
I really dont understand your point, im 30 now and it seams now like 30 years passed in blink of an eye, so i doubt i will ever be happy with the end comming near.
Im actually surprised that we are still limited mostly to that 80-90 years, givent the fact that its 21 century and the medicine advanced quite a lot, and why would it be ok only
to live up to 80's, i think that as a society we can achieve so much more if the age limit lifts atleast to 150..
cheers

Its all about the quality of life though. If your quality of life isn't good after your 50s perhaps even 60s then its not rally worth it to live past those years.
Not just the quality of life, but the quality of lifestyle too. Everything taking into consideration from their food, stress level, living, joys and sorrows, mindset, etc. affects the age of people.
I know a lot of long-livers who were far from being saints (mildly speaking). My grandfather who lived up to 90+ had even been heavily wounded in his youth (was about to kick the bucket but managed to survive somehow). This doesn't indeed mean that you should drink or smoke without caution. The upper limit on one's longevity is defined by one's genes, and it seems that it cannot be changed upward with the quality of life or lifestyle by any substantial margin.
