Cubed mistaking Asians for Galapagos tortoises. Also Mediterranean people who seem to get more years via their diet.

The Asians I've known (including a friend since age 10) seem to age at the same rate as everyone else. (Granted they're also American by birth or became citizens long ago, so less to do with race and more to do with local health-related habits.)

edit: Okay, but I'll let Cubed have it that supposedly as of Jan. the oldest person is in Japan, but people like that are certainly an exception, not what's common.

Though supposedly the longest lived in history at 122 was French. And the second oldest currently living person is also in France.
