I remember when Wilford Brimley died I was shocked that wasn’t dead like 20 years previously. I was even more shocked that he wasn’t like 100 years old. I think he was in his early 80’s. In the movie they represented his age as mid 70’s. 

I know a guy I went to school with. I saw him the other day. If I didn’t know ahead of time I was meeting him I wouldn’t have recognized him. He could have passed for 70 easy, even though he’s only a year or two older than me.
