Thanks, Mick.
Although reaching 85 is probably just pure luck + good genes, I will admit I am a little proud of it.
Reaching this age caused me to think about what my body has done during the years. I did some calculations which are interesting, is there any machine that can that can work continuously for so long without repair. This is something we take for granted.
My age is nothing special but the run time statistics of 'my machine' add up to some very large numbers.
My age = 85 years which is equal to:-
1,020 months
30855 days
740,520 hours
44,421,200 minutes
Based on average figures for humans, during this time my heart has done this:-
~3,323,234,000 heartbeats
And pumped this amount of blood
~21,458,952 litres or ~21.459 Tonnes or ~23 US Tons or ~566,885 US gallons.
Next target TANE.
