According to scientists, the reason for a sharp decline in life expectancy is radioactive potassium, which in previous times in products was contained 179 times less. On the example of trees, this pattern can be seen quite clearly: the birch lives up to 250 years (in its crown is 13.8% of potassium oxide); pine - 600 (6.9%); fir - 1200 (3.2%). Knowing the average content in the rocks of the desired elements, you can calculate the average duration of human life in the antediluvian times, it was 12250 years!
Other possible reasons for the decrease in life expectancy are also called: the disappearance of ambrosia from our diet (the so-called "food of the gods"); transition to food fried and meat food; increase in the number of stressful situations; the loss of spiritual connections with the Cosmos. One way or another, but at the moment, Humanity is only going to "reach the milestones of life expectancy at 100 years (instead of today's 70) thanks to the modern achievements of medicine," and then to 150.
But, perhaps, that day is not far off (Arthur CLARK gives his forecast on this score - 2090), when we can also slow the impact of the time field or even stop the aging process altogether ?! At the moment, work is underway all over the world to study the anabiosis state. It is supposed that to transfer a person to such a state is sometimes extremely necessary, for example, for interstellar travel and conservation of hopeless patients in the hope that new medicines will be invented in the Future. As an alternative to anabiosis, they also offer a lethargic sleep and deep freezing. But none of these three methods is capable of preserving the body in a constantly "battle-worthy" state for millions of years. Only with the "frog" method, a person will feel excellent in a moment after "awakening", while after a frost he needs a large rehabilitation period.
That's just what exactly is a frog secret - this can be built while only assumptions. Let's return in our reasoning a bit back: judging by the shape of the depressions, the toads "polished" the stone from the inside or processed it in some other way. For example, softened it (than? Secretions from the skin?) And crumpled, as did the American Indians. The latter sought to change the properties of the stone, rubbing it with some kind of mysterious vegetable infusion. Like toads, and Indians, and, finally, the medieval alchemists who sought the elixir of longevity used for their purposes unknown chemical substances of vegetable or animal origin. "... Mix ivory, sandalwood, deer's heart, aloe root ..."; "Put a red-haired freckled man in a stone vessel with honey and cork ..."; "Nettle, black grapes, tarragon, dill, coriander, parsley, mint, sage are required ..."; "... Take a toad that has lived a thousand years and ...". Most of these ancient recipes are either just deception or encrypted wisdom, describing the way to influence processes not at the chemical but at a more subtle level. Is it possible, in the end, with the help of any chemical substances, at least slightly to change the speed of the flow of physical Time in atoms? The explanation, perhaps, is too implausible, but who will find the best for the case with toads in the stones ?!
Does this mean that even now hopelessly sick people can risk and "hibernate" inside the clay that is stony with time, in a frozen solution or immediately - in a stone block or sarcophagus ?! By the way, it was about eternal life (more precisely - about eternal life after the resurrection) the Pharaohs dreamed, who throughout their lives erected huge stone "burial grounds" for them-pyramids.
