I knew several old guys in my hometown who started smoking at 16, multiple packs a day, and died of a car accident or some other farm accident in their mid to late 90's. One guy was in his mud 80's and would sit on his porch and take a drag off his cigarette, and then put his oxygen mask back on for a second, and then switch it back and forth till he had smoked through his pack. He only got the oxygen lit on fire a few times. LoL. My belief is that some of us are built to withstand more shit than others. Genetics, upbringing, environment, etc. I've known some pretty frail older guys, and some old guys that were built like clydesdales.
