Human longevity has improved so rapidly over the past century that 72 is the new 30, scientists say.

Researchers at the Max Planck Institute for Demographic Research in Rostock, Germany, said progress in lowering the odds of death at all ages has been so rapid since 1900 that life expectancy has risen faster than it did in the previous 200 millennia since modern man began to evolve from hominid species.

=> 长生不老 :scared-4:

however,

By the age of 68, more than 60 per cent of the population in England had a disability, which could make it difficult to stay at work.
