So it's about being THIN as well.

I notice thin athletes tend to have longer careers, than thicker ones.

I have heard that the larger you are then the heart has to work harder to get blood throughout your body, but what I do not believe is that larger organs cause cancer. There’s a reason scientists are trying to figure out why whales, elephants, etc don’t get cancer. It’s been noted that large animals do not in fact get cancer

whales, sharks, elephants wtc. dont get cancer because of their specific genetics...

the reason why having lqrger organs increases chance of cancer in humans is simply because more cells = more chances for cells to become cancerous

This is true.

But I also wonder if just like having more cells raises chances of cancer by exponents, could it possibly be the same thing with cancer causing agents in our daily lives?

Like the food dye increases cancer, air pollution, processed meats, etc etc. All of these things along probably wouldn't result in an individual getting cancer, but everyday exposure to so many carcinogens can maybe increase negligible risks to statistically observable rises in cancer (exponentially).

Would humans growing up feral in the woods away from civilizations as a group "don't get cancer"?

yes, the exposure to all these carcinogens over a lifetime increases chance of cancer day by day year by year,.

as far as growing in up the woods or in greener less polluted environments:
