It's interesting that there are only 13 questions.Yet, they can predict how long you're likely to live.
I just have to comment on this. I can predict how long you're likely to live just by country of residence; if you're American, you have 42 years to live, and I would be right on average. The average American is 38 and the avg life expectancy for a 38yo is 42 years. I can refine that to 40 or 44 if I ask your gender (Male or Female respectively).
The issue isn't "can you predict based on" but "how precise is the prediction".
Not 65 yet, it says I’ll check out at 91. My grandmother made it to 95. Mom and Dad were in their mid-70’s but both smoked, drank (a little) and rarely exercised enough to get their heart rate up.
note to ukiyo-e: 67 y/o female should live another 19.10 years per above
Yes, I've actually looked at that table. All rough guesses with too many variables for any pretension of certainty, of course, but I'd honestly rather live to 87 than the 100+ the quiz gave me.

The actuarial tables are averages, the quiz is adjusting based on your personal health.
They're not "rough guesses", they're precise averages.
