average age

[Emperor Harkonnen]

what is the average living age for a person? I mean world wide.

[Anathema]

World wide? I don't see of what use that would be. Bad medical services in some parts cause low age many deaths at birth so the life expectancy there would be heinously low, while over here they're extremely high.

[Emperor Harkonnen]

yes but I am woundering what it is, just to compare how many high living standard countries there are to low. I just want to know!

[Dante]

So look it up. In most western countries the average age for men is about 70 and women 72. Or something like that.

[Emperor Harkonnen]

dunno where to look it up. but I will ask a magazine since nobody knows

[Atomic Mitten]

Google it ! ::)

If you want to know the life expectancy of each country check the CIA World Factbook.

In Slovakia it's 68 for men and 72 for women. But it is curved by accidental deaths, which are very often here (we like drinks with CH3CH2OH...), most people live as long as about 80 years.

[Acriku]

Such lazy people these days  ::)

Anyway, a worldwide average would not give you any information beyond getting the worldwide average span of life. If you do it by country, you'd be able to compare.

Any bets on which country has the best life expectancy, lol?

[GhostHunter]

China! Cause they all share one anothers years, ah Communism! *Silent room* ...Yeah..

[Inoculator9]

Grand, Ghost ;D But, ironically... not in the least true :P China has the most UN human right's violations of any country on Earth :P

[GhostHunter]

It was sarcasim, you bastard.  ;D

[GUNWOUNDS]

hmm there is some guy in one of those ex-USSR countries... that is 135 years old.

[Inoculator9]

Actually, I believe that's correct, perhaps not such a large number, but essentially true. It's the wonders of a Ukrainian potato farmer's diet ;D Which includes... potatoes! And maybe a carrot on your birthday!

i believe they also have very clean stream they drink from that has a high Chromium content along with other minerals.

I can't imagine the horrible monotony...

[GhostHunter]

You fool....they surf the internet, jackass....at a blazing 3.4kbs dedicated connection...and by dedicated...I mean they care about the mule and rider who transfers the data to an American MSN Embassy.  ;D

[Inoculator9]

The wonders of modern ass connections :) Get it, ass? Donkey ;)

[GhostHunter]

Now these puns are getting to be no longer phunny...Ah, the joys of a extremely bad sense of humor.  :P

hte average life expectancy in the US is 70ish for men, but that's BS for me, my grandparents are 92 and still really healthy and live o ntheir own

[Emperor Harkonnen]

I found out that world wide the average age is between 65 and 70.

In Norway the average age is 80 I think. Though every old person I have known has lived till they were at least 97. My great grand father became 102.

[Terror]

Hmm.. in the netherlands i think it's 78 years for women, and 76 for men.

I got myself a copy of the FHM 2004 Diary not too long ago.
