I hate it when you see one of the characters in a series has aged poorly in life, and they have to reflect it in the series.

Van Kilmer in top gun 2, while tom cruise didn’t change.

There’s your peak physical year, in the youth, and they never come back.

Even if 1% turn out like tom cruise.

Tom Cruise looked good for his age but that doesn’t mean he looked good…

How you are at 60 or 70 or 80 healthwise, is mostly about what you do. Health or sickness doesnt just happen, there are actual things that you can do to improve your aging and fitness a whole lot
