I found 87 year old Bill's story interesting. Here's his post from HSI:

Great story - he feels 25 at the age of 87.

Blood pressure, now, isn't that just a bit on the low side?? If he is healthy, then he is healthy, but I had to raise an eyebrow about that BP.

I thought the pulse rate was pretty slow too....mine is closer to 72 when I'm sitting around or resting, faster if I'm up and around on my feet.

He may be a reptilian, like Dubya.

Slow heart rate can actually be a sign of a strong heart. Athletes have slow heart rates because their hearts have adapted to the high demands made on them. I think soccer players are the ones with the slowest heart rates, maybe showing that interval training (which is what they go through during a game) is the better or best method of developing cardio health.

Dr. Al Sears has raised points that show how aerobics is unhealthy for the heart.

Check out Bill's memory - perhaps he's forgotten what
a 25 yr old feels like, esp. in certain parts of one's body.
Or recalling a Fantasy

I don't suffer from Arthritis pain either, but I eat lots of
Cayenne. Don't need to gulp down loads of Fish Oil either
