Plenty of people today are still very active well into their 90s and many people can live to 100 or more as long as they take care of themselves and have the right genes (this is unfortunate, but true and ethnicity has a lot to do with it).

As best anyone can tell, 114 or 115 seems to be the age cap. The world's oldest people simply don't make it past this age.

One day they probably will, if Obamacare doesn’t kill us all first.

There is a reason for that: Genesis 6:3.

Perhaps not. It was not that long ago that reaching 100 was most unusual, but, now, there seem to be more and more centenarians around. So, perhaps the cap will be raised somewhat — if the progs don’t start killing off us oldsters.
