If he really wanted to live this longer he must have been a monk. I've listened many anecdotes of Indian monks living many more years than normal people.
I have heard of some Japanese zen and buddhist dying in meditation. Supposedly they are entombed alive? Its not done anymore.

I'm barely talking about living a life of 120 years which is quite possible. There are evidences of Indian monks in the Himalayas have lived upto these many years.

True. I think there is also a Japanese who has, too. I heard cold helps a lot.
