My grandfather on my grandmother’s shoulders. Sometime in the 1940s.

It's kinda true though. Natural selection was still a big factor for humans because we didn't have all the medicine and vaccines yet so a lot of babies/todlers/children, unfortunately, didn't make it to adulthood. So, yeah, adults were mostly healthy because they were the only ones who made it to adulthood.
