Have you looked into the billions being dropped into stopping the aging process? They are working on delaying death alright. Problem is, aging is multi-causal. We already know how some human cells, through replication at least, are immortal. It's called cancer. Now, how to do that for the non-cancer cells is really, really tricky.
I watched some stuff about Aubrey de Grey some years ago, but given what I've discovered since then about psuedoscience like neuro-science, DNA sequencing, the delusion and misconception of microbiology and the like; the corruption of science in general: I reckon he's either delusional or a con man. Death has already been greatly delayed as regards life expectancy. I guess we'll know what upper limit is capable with unlimited funds when we see how old Queen Elizabeth is when she dies (if not already dead), or Rothschild.
However there are stories, and I reckon they have some degree of truth, of old monks who practiced taichi, yoga, qigong and whatnot, living to be 120 or older, and being agile till their last day. and of course there are legends of people living to be hundreds of years old in various ancient texts. It makes me wonder if it's not a case of our modern understanding not living up to what appears to be lost knowledge / wisdom from older civilizations.
The people that lived in Genesis to be hundreds of years old is a combination of translation, and allegorical text written to say "he lived to be very old" by saying a large number. It's like saying it "we ate some much ice cream for my birthday, it was piled a mile high".
