Kinda funny that after everything he did Parkinsons was what got him.

What’s amazing is that 75.8 is the life expectancy of men in the US and he managed to cross it with the lifestyle he had.

Life expectancy of men *at birth*. Once you've made it to ten years old, those statistics don't apply any more.

In other words, the average lifespan of a 10-year old boy is not 65.8 additional years.

So don't hold the suspense - how much is it then and how does it stack with rest of developed world?

Even then, you’d be surprised that his lifestyle didn’t impact his lifespan more negatively.

But you’ll have chain smokers who live into their nineties.

His alcohol consumption levels usually result in death in one's 50s, maybe 60s, maybe 40s.
