Yo, I spent umpteen hundreds of hours doing longevity research for several news services. You would not believe the new shit on the table and SOON to come that will not only extend our lives but REVERSE, yes I said REVERSE major parts of the aging process. There's no one source of aging. It's a combination of things. Yet over the past 8 years there have been astounding leaps in technology. We literally don't know how long a kid born today will live given these burgeoning technologies.
As for old-ass animals like that turtle, certain reptiles do live long ages. What's surprising is the sea creatures like sharks. If you feed a shark it will continue to grow. We don't know how old sharks can get. They don't show the signs of old age as other animals and rarely if ever get cancer.
