I know someone who passed away in their 70s. When people say "They were so young" I just have to shrug.
They were not young. At all. They were almost at life expectancy. Whatever hairs were left on their head were gray. They could barely even get out of bed. They didn't want to go on a hiking trip. They didn't want to play football in the backyard. They didn't want to go speedboating in the gulf. They didn't want to jump in the car with their buddies and paint the town red and woo the girls. They just wanted to sleep all the time and eat nothing but a small sandwich per day.
Yeah it's a bit annoying/depressing though when your family members get sick and die in their 70s but you see celebrities in their 90s jumping out of planes and going on rockets and doing all that stuff you mentioned. Good for them I guess.
I like how they consider the baby boomers "middle aged"
