It turns out that humans can live up to 130 years old, but depending on luck



Many studies have been conducted to guide the limit of human lifespan, and so far, '

human lifespan peaks at 115 years old ', 'human lifespan is limited to 120-150 years old ', and ' human lifespan is 105 years old '. Research results such as 'If you exceed it, you will be less likely to die.' A new research team led by Anthony Davison, a professor of statistics at the Swiss Federal Institute of Technology Lausanne , reports that 'humans can live up to 130 years old if they are very lucky.'

Research on human lifespan has been conducted by biological and statistical methods. For example, a study by biotechnology company gero , published in 2021, collected step count data and blood test results from healthy subjects aged 20 to 80 years and showed normal blood status and steps after stress. By modeling the time required for recovery, we draw the conclusion that 'human life is limited to 120-150 years.'

How old can humans live? --GIGAZINE



As a study using statistical methods, we analyzed data from 3836 Italians who were over 105 years old between 2009 and 2015, conducted by a research team

at the University of Rome La Sapienza. To calculate the mortality rate 'is known. The results of this study show that the risk of death in humans increases with age, but the risk of death slows down beyond the age of 105.

In addition to the Italian national data used by the University of Rome, La Sapienza, a new research team led by Davison said, 'More than 1,100 seniors over 110, collected from 11 countries in the United States, Canada and Europe. The relationship between age and mortality risk was analyzed using the International Database on Longevity.

The analysis revealed that the risk of human mortality increases more slowly with increasing age, and that the risk of death becomes more or less constant beyond the age of 110. Davison said that people over the age of 110 are like throwing 'coins that determine whether they can live next year' every year. 'The probability that people over the age of 110 will survive until the age of 130 is a coin. It is almost equal to the probability that the surface will come out in a row when throwing 20 times. This is less than one in a million and unlikely to occur in the near future, but 110 years old. If the number of people who exceed the number increases, it is possible that some people will reach the age of 130 in the 21st century. '

As of September 30, 2021, the oldest person in the world is Japanese Kane Tanaka , who is celebrating her 118th birthday on January 2, 2021.
