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... 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.
