Aubrey de Grey has long been saying that We will be able to live to 1,000. The news is that BBC News is publishing his piece:
If you are a reasonably risk-aware teenager today in an affluent, non-violent neighbourhood, you have a risk of dying in the next year of well under one in 1,000, which means that if you stayed that way forever you would have a 50/50 chance of living to over 1,000.And remember, none of that time would be lived in frailty and debility and dependence — you would be youthful, both physically and mentally, right up to the day you mis-time the speed of that oncoming lorry.
