Born in 1899.
I figure he lives to 100.
You?

Well, if we take The Young Indiana Jones Chronicles as canon, we know he lives until at least 93, right? 100 is a safe estimate—but, dear God, to imagine he lives until 1999!  |

It would be insane to watch the world grow and innovate from the late 1800's into the late 1900's...probably would scare the hell out of even Indy. |

Didn't he drink some of the water from the Holy Grail, which was supposed to give him ever lasting life?
While it is true that his father died in a "regular human life span"... it is possible that the grail just healed him of his wounds, and didn't extend his life...
But then again, we don't know how died... (The Holy Grail may not help you, if you are caught in an explosion)
So, Indy's lifespan may have been extended. Maybe he could live until 2050...

The Grail's effects only worked within the temple and once you crossed the seal, it wore off. |

The 1990s series was set in the 90s so he'd probably make it to at least 105, 110.

As stated, the Grail's immortality power only worked within that temple (although that kind of made it useless to the people who wanted to live forever) but I think that it still had some effect on a person who drank from it even if they left. Indy seemed awfully spry for someone in his 60s in Kingdom of the Crystal Skull, especially considering what being in your 60s meant back in the 1950s. I figured that was because the Grail may not have made him immortal but it did give him extra health and vitality for the rest of his life. |

My guess is that he wouldn't live too much longer after the "Kingdom of the Crystal Skull". I always imagined him chasing after something for fun and not coming back. He doesn't seem like the type of guy that would settle down and live to be 100 to me  |
