No surprise here. After all, it's an "alternative lifestyle."

Not to criticize the author of the study because it is important to document things, but we have a tiny minority group, maybe .5% of the population, who way disproportionately suffer from a deadly disease and with their run down immune systems probably disproportionately suffer death from this disease. Is it really a big surprise that on average this group has a shorter life-span?
I bet NASCAR drivers on average live shorter lifespans than the general population too. But I would not be surprised if NAScAR drivers who don't die on the track live closer to the average life expectancy.
Yeah, the alternative to living longer.
