1. What's up with this,...

.... did Jagger buy the Fountian of Youth ?

[milestogo]

2. I think he's just taken really good care of himself.

Apparently Rock and Roll is the secret to a long, healthy life.

[magicarpet]

5. I'd fracture a pelvis if I moved around that quickly.

I was hoping for one of those aluminum walkers for Christmas. With the small wheels and a tiny wire basket on front to hold your shit.

[milestogo]

7. His father was a physical education teacher

so he always took it seriously. Being a little underweight isn't a bad thing - its easier on one's joints.
He's given up drinking and drugs, and eats a healthy diet. And basically, I think he has never stopped moving.

[yardwork]

21. I suspect Jagger never used many drugs or alcohol.

I think a lot of it was media speculation, which he encouraged as part of his bad boy image.

The truth is he's lived a very healthy life, physically at least. But that reputation Durant sell records.

27. Dancers, man, they live forever

I went to a Stones concert to do photography for the paper a few years back. It was in Philadelphia. I was in the orchestra pit for two songs. I felt like I was covering a basketball player. He was running back-and-forth on what seemed to be 100 foot stage so fast. Fortunately he stopped right in front of me for a few seconds and I got a decent shot with the lights going. He was as tough to cover as a soccer game.

12. If you look at his preformances over the year, he is very heavy on athletics and the dance style that is now famous

with BTS and other younger Asian groups. Always moving.

31. Not watched this video until now

And it was magical. What an amazing man and amazing life.
Cold Play now has my unwavering respect and admiration for doing this.
What a true gift to the world his life has been.

[EarthAbides]

32. That was fantastic!!

Thank you for sharing!

[erronis]

14. along with some probably excellent pharmaceuticals

does alcohol count?

[rubbersole]

28. Preservatives.

Enbalm while dancing.

[Beck23]

25. Probably drugs.

[Unladen Swallow]

34. Maybe its the alcohol

In extreme amounts. Preserves the tissue like embalming fluid. Same thing with tons of members of Congress.

[sop]

3. Mick cut a deal with the Devil one midnight at the Crossroads.

There's no other logical explanation.

[House of Roberts]

18. Yep,

and Keith Richards introduced them.

[SunSeeker]

29. Keef is immortal!

[Ocelot II]

4. It's the way he moves. Orchestra conductors are another phenomenon -

they live much longer than the average person, and it's attributed at least in part to regular, strenuous upper-body movement.

The phenomenon has long been studied and marveled at — or just envied. A simple, but not complete, reason cited in a Metropolitan Life Insurance study, which showed that orchestra conductors live 38 percent longer than the general population, was that conducting is good cardiovascular exercise.

Upper-body fitness programs claim to strengthen heart and lungs, improve posture, flexibility, and balance, reduce pain and stress, aid in weight loss, and raise endorphin levels.

Also, they love what they do, and Mick Jagger clearly does too.

8. I must start waving my arms around more

But I'll have to work up to it.

[Ocelot II]

37. I try not to wave my arms around too much

on account of all that unsightly upper-arm jiggling.

[dflprincess]

38. My friend was getting a pedicure last summer

and the young thing working on her was talking about the new tattoo she was planning to get - right along that part of her arm.

My friend told her to think twice about that - then stuck her arm out & shook it. The young one gaped at her in horror. Said friend also suggested she take a look at her mom or aunts just to confirm it happens to us all.

[Ocelot II]

39. I suppose one could get a tattoo of some kind of invertebrate sea creature there,

something boneless and jiggly.

6. Like father, like son

Jagger has an 8 yr old son named Deveraux with Melanie Hamrick (who is a dancer)

[orleans]

13. wow, that kid can sure move. (btw he looks more like six yrs old to me) nt

[milestogo]

15. His current age is 8 but the video could be older - although it says 2024.

[Think. Again.]

9. He obviously isn't relying on the U.S. healthcare system.

[dflprincess]

40. Or the NHS

he did have his heart valve replacement done in New York (don't know which hospital).

People in his income bracket don't have to rely on any system, they can afford the best.

[Figarosmom]

10. The reason he can still move like that

Is because he never stopped. Didn't let himself get stiff.

[question everything]

11. Wasn't he hospitalized for some "heart procedure" a few years ago?

Still moving better than many 20 and 30 younger.

[milestogo]

16. Non-invasive heart valve replacement surgery.

[MLAA]

17. I'll have what he's having!

[SaveOurDemocracy]

19. There's no sitting down at a Stones concert...

The whole arena is jumping!! High energy, down and dirty ROCK!

Then there’s this: “Moves like Jagger” Maroon 5

[milestogo]

20. Same with a Springsteen concert.

And it goes on for hours. It must be exhausting to perform for that long.

[displacedvermoter]

26. Bob Weir did a show at our concert ground

that went for almost four hours (counting 20 minute intermission) and would have gone longer but hard and fast 10 PM end time stopped him.

Loving what you do and knowing you have to take care of yourself to keep doing it go hand in hand I guess.

[whathehell]

22. ..Go on with your bad self, Mick!

[NotHardly]

23. He's a multimillionaire ... pretty sure he has great health insurance

[hlthe2b]

24. I'm saving this to share New Years' Eve/Day with my hiking buds for inspiration!

(and maybe a few sheepish looks when the moaning/groaning/stiffness complaints commence ).

[Kali999]

30. He's a athlete

Pretty sure he runs so he can keep dancing. Braced myself with the headline.

[keithbvadu2]

33. The music, action, and the crowd must keep him energized.

Go for it, Mick!

[TommieMommy]

35. He's amazing 👍 wow😁
