One can live for as long Allah wishes. The problem here is Him coming back to Earth to get death, when in heavens only people who are dead goes. It is evidence enough that you hold Esa AS to be more superior than Muhammad PBUH since He AS was the only one who was taken up to heavens alive because Allah couldnt see him in pain, but we see no instance such as this happening with the greatest prophet of all time, the holy prophet PBUH. I just want to see to what extent you can go just to keep him alive.
PS: I asked a question earlier, will he be born again or not?.. also, if being in heavens stops his age at the point when he AS was taken up? Is he AS 2000+ years old at the moment? this is a serious question, and requires a serious answer, because with your answer, ill be quoting verses of Quran yet again for you and the audience here to look at.
Peace Mr. Popat
I take exception to your statement above. I've only listed what you believe and what we believe regarding the nature of Isa (AS). There is no point in trying to drill home the reasons why you think we hold Isa (AS) more superior than Muhammad (SAW), we can give you many references where we hold the opposite, but this is different topic for now. Rather you should be saying that our formats of interpretation make it seem to you that we hold Isa (AS) as a greater prophet than Muhammad (SAW). Anyway again I believe that is a different topic but this one is now ended we know where we stand.

Please go right ahead. Keeping in mind Prophets were subjected to hunger, pain, sleep etc..
21:08 (09 for some).. "And We did not give them bodies that ate no food, nor were they to live for ever"
25:21 ( 20 for some )..And We never sent any Messengers before thee but surely they ate food and walked in the streets. And We make some of you a trial for others. Will you *then *be steadfast? And thy Lord is All- Seeing.
The first of these two verses is about the taunts of the people who wished to see Muhammad (SAW) perform miracles to prove himself. The response being from Allah (SWT) that it was not those prophets who performed miracles because they were only flesh and blood i.e. ate food and passed through death. That there is no difference in Muhammad (SAW) as a messenger than those previous messengers. They were all human. Allah (SWT) says those who He sent were:
a) Men
b) Inspired by Him
The context of this section shows how Allah (SWT) made the prophets prosper and how the people who were transgressors were destroyed.
The second of these two verses is the 25:20 actually links back to an earlier ayat in the same Surah ... number 7.
It was to clarify a taunt that Muhammad (SAW) was a mere mortal, they wanted to see mystifying things.
