Finally, here I am at 80. Now, there's only a 52% chance I'll still be alive. If I die, the most likely causes will be circulatory, cancer and endocrine.

最后，看一下八十岁的我是怎样的情况吧。果然，我活着的几率减半了，只有52%，主要的死因是血液循环疾病、癌症和内分泌失调。

Yau was surprised to see that circulatory problems — and not cancer — were such a prominent cause of death.

邱南森惊讶地发现，主要致死疾病竟然是血液循环疾病而非癌症。

"It seems like cancer would be the leading cause, just going off general news," he wrote. "This is certainly true up to a certain age, but get past that and your heart can only keep going for so long."

他写道：“根据各大资讯的报道，人们似乎一直认为癌症才是头号杀手。当人活到某个年纪，确实如此。但就算你过了这一关，你的心脏也只能再运转这么些年。

Try it yourself.

你也来试试吧！
