The damn ancestors couldnt even conceive of conjuring one up using magic mirror boxes. Theyd have us all hanged for witchcraft

Ancestors wouldn’t even recognize their own people. They would think we are aliens or witches as mentioned.

Live 20,000 years ago at a ripe old age of 37 and after hunting a mammoth all day then getting home with a large amount of meat, stubbed a toe scratching it then dying from the scratch.

I choose to believe my ancestors look on me in envy and take pride in their lineage.

Do they whisper "Yes, I'd be worried about identity theft too if my details were going into a phone app".

they actually could order a pizza over the phone back then, although before the invention and popularisation of cars it was deemed easier to hunt for food.

Average life expectancy included early childhood deaths. So if you made it to teenager, you would probably live to an old age close to what you might live to today.

They already had booze and porn though.

Nowadays, people don't have to worry about food stockpiles and periods of shortages. Malnutrition was definitely a big issue back then. Especially with things like baby food being present, which was a big factor in reducing baby death rates
Modern medicine such as vaccines, surgeries, supplements, and even basic hygiene has made wonders for the average health of a person. Things that would normally kill a person, like bacteria infecting a wound, nowadays is mostly recoverable and minor.
If you look back even just a century, life expectancy was a lot lower than the present.

https://www.statista.com/statistics/1040079/life-expectancy-united-states-all-time/In isolated communities without any of our tech and science advancement, like the kalahari, it's common for people to live into old age, so getting into your 80s or something isn't something new in our society. Statistically, more people are getting into older age, but that doesn't mean young people were considered old.

True, but they did die from minor injuries a lot more than they do now.
