I think he managed to get to the other end of the tunnel at an astonishing age Arthur, but I was not his biggest fan RIP.

If you have money then that helps. He would be getting checkup all the time for any illnesses.
look at the royal family, they are all living to a very good age.
Shorter people normally live longer than tall people, there is not many 6 foot plus guys in nursing homes so Prince Phillip will be getting a lot more checkups that Joe average in the street.

Very interesting article in the Telegraph recently, he was a Ragman's son, born on the very lowest level of society in the most impoverished section of town.
