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

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.
