Kingsley Amis and Martin Amis

Close, but differed...
Father and son…

William: Both died at 73. Kingsley in 1995, Martin in 2023.

Paul: Coincidence, surely.

William: No significance.

Paul: Both smoked.

William: Not to mention genetics, lifestyle, environment and so on. Kingsley died of a fall and crushed vertebrae, which is not necessarily related to smoking or cancer. Martin died of oesophagal cancer, which could be linked to smoking.

Correlation of both dying at 73 does not imply causation.
