I agree. If we relied on anecdotal evidence more often we'd have resorts on Mars by now.
Walking videos at evening in HDR look great on HDR TV! I love them! Especially comfy in a cold season.

What if... governments just wait for people, they owe money to, to die of old age..?

"that defies the laws of physics" I hate those click bait titles. It obviously didn't.
I don't believe people can't find 30 minutes on weekends to go for a run. Hell, you can go for a run after work!
