    I always wondered
    Why a person of 95 years, who smoked two packs of cigarettes a day
    All of his life. Never got cancer of any diseases. If often puzzled me.
    Could it be a gene thing??

    It very well be, and most likely is, genetic. There may even be other factors such as healthy diet and exercise that contributes too.

    Agree

    Maybe their parents lived to be 105 :>
    Eating a healthy diet
    Regular exercise
    Good sleep
    Being able to handle stress well
    Are other factors.

    You shoud not take this to mean that it is healthy or inconsequential to smoke.
