Jared Kushner stated in an interview with Richard Grenell that he thinks there is a good chance he will be one of the first people to experience eternal life on Earth.
Jared Kushner's Opinion on the Exercise to Make Him Immortal
Kushner told Grenell, since leaving the White House last year, getting some exercise has been the one thing he has tried to prioritize. He said that he believes there is a significant chance that, because of scientific advancements, his generation will either be the first to live forever or the last to experience death. He emphasized the importance of maintaining excellent health.

His belief was contrary to his father-in-law, former President Donald Trump's, theory about restraining from strenuous exercise. The latter said that the human body is only capable of using so much energy, much like a battery. His counter-intuitive views don't just apply to exercise. He once made the following comment to consumers of a particular diet soda.
According to Business Insider, an unnamed source close to Kushner told The Daily Beast's Zachary Petrizzo and Matt Wilstein that the comments were made in jest. The source continued that it's almost like a tongue-in-cheek joke to make the bigger point that he wants to go out and be in shape since people are living longer lives.
Kushner currently promoting his new book, "Breaking History," which is a memoir of his time in the White House.
Can Exercise Make You Immortal?
To bring the argument to the next level, here are some professional viewpoints to help you decide whether or not Kushner's theory is supported by science.
Numerous scientific and medical studies have shown the importance of regular exercise in maintaining good health into old age. According to a study by the American Heart Association, merely increasing your walking overall will help you live longer. Similar findings were reached in a different study published in JAMA. In essence, being more active is associated with living longer. According to a research published in the European Journal of Preventive Cardiology, exercising more increases one's chance of surviving a cardiac event like a heart attack.
On the other hand, worrying excessively about not exercising enough may shorten your lifespan. To arrive at this result, study authors looked at data from approximately 61,000 Americans.
Lead author of the study and psychologist at Stanford University, Alia Crum, highlighted that those who believed they were less active than other people their age were more likely to die, regardless of health status, body mass index, and other factors.
Will humans ever be immortal?
Scientists predict that the universe will end, which likely puts an end to the mystery surrounding the possibility of human immortality. It's improbable that any humans alive today will witness the end of the cosmos, despite some scientists' speculations to the contrary, according to science journalist John Horgan for Scientific American.
Susan Schneider, a philosopher and founding director of the Center for the Future Mind at Florida Atlantic University, told Live Science that she doesn't think when people are even asking about immortality, they really mean it is true immortality. She said that they meant something like a soul. She added that if someone was, say, to upgrade their brain and body to live a really long time, they would still not be able to live beyond the end of the universe.
