#3 Kind of makes you wonder how much extra time a healthy diet and exercise earned him. Would it be worth it to die at 90 if you could eat food you liked and not exercise your entire life?

#4 Death is a zero sum game. No matter what you do to alter the cause, something else will bite you in the end.

#6 RIP. He has left us, unfortunate. By far Jack was a favorite exercise scientist of many and whether he lived to be 80 or 120- Jack LaLanne felt vital and healthy while he was alive.

Grossly obese people are not complete humans. A walking, talking 300 lb. (Unless your are 6'7") human alimentary canal with fat strangled organs wearing the soles out of shoes too soon, leading limited lives, and parading their misery around so everyone around them that see them wants to barf or weep is not the ideal. It takes its toll in other ways on those who must interact with these sad big little whales. See Michelangelo's statue of David over there, the 300 pound David? Of course not, David would never let himself become obese, obesity is not healthy for children and other living things.
