    The evidence that no one can live past 123 is that no one has ever lived past 123. We have a sample size of billions on that statistic.

    So you’re saying there’s an absence of evidence?

    We also have science showing that life expectancy is constantly increasing. Even you linked an article which relied on a study that noted that as a fact. They showed that the increase is now slower than it used to be — but it is still there. Thus, it would be preposterous to hypothesise that the current record for longest lives won’t be broken constantly as life expectancy increases.

    Observed maximum life span isn’t synonymous with life expectancy.

    Some low quality science journal says that ‘maybe we could live forever, or like, 150 or something’ and I say ‘cool story bro’.

    You have no science showing that, the only science you even indirectly linked support exactly what I am saying, and I just quoted Wikipedia, which uses sources.

    People like you are why Iemmy is almost as bad as Reddit… talking in circles, saying nothing.

    I literally laughed out loud. You’re speaking out of your arse, just like I said.

    It has been proposed that no fixed theoretical limit to human longevity is apparent today.[8][9] Studies in the biodemography of human longevity indicate a late-life mortality deceleration law: that death rates level off at advanced ages to a late-life mortality plateau. That is, there is no fixed upper limit to human longevity, or fixed maximal human lifespan.[10]
