He is not wrong. The statistics of the odds dying from any cause are bell shaped. Beyond a certain age, the longer you live, the less likely you are to die. One plausible explanation for that people who live past a certain age have the right mix of genes and lifestyle that keeps them living longer. These people have a much longer life expectancy than the average.
