Professor Li Chung Yun was considered the oldest man of our century. The London Times (May 8, 1933) reported his death at the age of 256 years. Records found in China show he was born in 1677.
Professor Yun died with all his own teeth and hair. Those who knew him say that he looked about 50 when he was already over 200. He outlived 23 wives and had 11 generations of descendents during his lifetime.

Why bother posting B/S like this?
Says here he looked like someone in his 50s when he died. And coincidentally the years were 1677 - 1933. Now if we change the most obvious mistake of all here.
1933 - 1877 = 56. Looks like he was 56 years old when he died.

When this is the only person within the past 2 millenia to reach this age, and the only other known person to get anywhere near it is only 122 years old (less than half that age), you need to be a little skeptical about it. I have no reason to believe that this false, per se (I've searched around and haven't found a legitimate argument against it), but it does not seem humanly possible to reach that age.

Yes, man can live a long time, few just realize it grasp it due to science "telling" them things.
There are many accounts of people living to an old age. But as you see many can't grasp it nor accept it so they bash any facts that pertain to such.
Just wait... soon man will live for long periods just like we use too.
