Not dissing the level of tragedy here but..."legend" rich kid sustained by solid family sponsorship who won one significant race. If you set the "legend" bar any lower the track marshals will qualify!

I'm not a vindictive person but I hope every last second is pure agony. https://www.theargus.co.uk/news/19622214.babes-wood-murderer-russell-bishop-weeks-live/

The Irish in general seem to defy logic when it comes to lifestyle and longevity. I have an Irish step-mother and her brother in law is about to hit 80 despite being a heavy drinker and smoker for 65 years. He even tried to light one up in the ambulance that was taking him to hospital after a suspected stroke a few years ago.

Well, I don't know the year, but most likely on a Thursday afternoon.

Funny peculiar, rather than funny ha ha?

Kane Tanaka is 118 + 3/4 years.

Aunt Jemima got canned too. And the finger of Fudge song was clearly encouraging nonces so that had to go. No kids on Grampa's lap for Werthers either.
