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?

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?

I guess he meant to enjoy the simplicity of life. I'd only probably sign up for such a life if I have my family with me.

If you have little kids with you, do you really expect them to tolerate a life without electricity, air conditioners, refrigerator, and TV? And most importantly, the kids will feel isolated without the presence of other children in their locality.

If children are very small, they easily adapt to conditions without modern technology and in adulthood may not want to live among people.
Indeed there are many cases when little children were discovered in the jungle. They have adapted to life in the wild and will never be able to adapt to life in society. They even say you can't teach. Is this life?
