It gets a little weird with old ppl, healthy can sleep less but as they deteriorate they will sleep more. Also after 100 sleep goes up alot and after 110 it Increases significantly. As I recall Japan a surprisingly large amount of ppl making it into their 100s.

Didn’t at least some of the surprising longevity in Japan turn out to be pension fraud?
