    Hopefully. I always thought I quite liked John Prescott, then he punched that egg protestor and I knew I liked him!

    Trust me some forums contain the most vilest of abuseful language. And just as big a threat for radicalising someone to attack a politician or other public figure.

    Some more potential immortals: Shige Mineshiba (1909-2023) and Lawrence Brooks (1909-2022) Probably the top immortals in the World's Oldest (excluding Tanaka and Randon): How the fuck do these two just keep living? Mineshiba, second- now oldest person in Canada has had dementia for over 12 years, had a myocardial infarction and needed a heart surgery at 87 and is unable to walk and probably can't speak anymore. Lawrence Brooks' health deteriorated very rapidly between october and november 2021 and he has basically been in home hospice for over a month, but Richard Overton's successor as the oldest known American WWII vet is very tough. Isabel Robalino (1917-2022) First female Senator in Ecuador, the Florence Lubega of Ecuador. Has been in a wheelchair for atleast eight years, probably longer. Often still wheeled around and participates in events, legs covered with a blanket. Nehemiah Persoff (1919-2022) Ancient hollywood actor whose career ended in the 1980s due to a stroke, obese until recent years and now, at 102, looks better than in decades. A true enigma and a "phoenix"-type person, looked like he's near the end and extremely frail when he got to 100. Lost his wife at the start of 2021 and also suspected to be near the end as they were together for over 70 years but reappeared before his 102nd birthday looking amazing for a man his age. Perennial pool tease in a ton of pools, picked in Deathrace twice last year. Josip Manolic (1920-2024) Communist revolutionary, Prime Minister of Yugoslavia's Croatia. Widowed twice, first in 2003 and from his second wife, 36 years younger than him, in 2020. Got covid and mild pneumonia in April 2021, survived those without going to a hospital. Khamtai Siphandon (1924-) Horrible-looking former dictator of Laos, now 97. Jaakko Syrjä (1926-2022) is a poet and writer and the widower of poet Kirsi Kunnas. He has looked like a corpse for the last four decades, became very pale years ago, has had dementia for years and has now spent over a year in a hospital. Eila Roine (1931-) Legendary Finnish children's tv presenter, Roine has had multiple strokes and heart attacks (and atleast one fall) during the recent years and is monitored in a care home. Colin Baddiel (1934-2022) Mentioned on this forum a number of times and first called an immortal around 2018, Pick's disease dementia for atleast a decade (around thirteen years, average life expectancy of someone with the disease is 7 years) and needed 24/7 care five years ago. Dying years ago, hospitalised last December in bad shape but still somehow going. Bedridden for a while but apparently not currently as of November 2021. Died around 18/19th of January 2022. Superstar Billy Graham (1943-2023) Cirrhosis in 2002 and recieved a liver transplant, bowel obstruction in 2006, one year to live in 2010, early stage cirrhosis (and also got a burial spot) in 2011, third-stage liver disease and cirrhosis in 2012, hepatitis C, double pneumonia with possible heart failure in 2013, liver complication in 2014, internal bleeding in 2016, pneumonia in 2019, toe infection in 2020, suffering from skin cancer for years, in September 2021 hospitalised again with fluid in his lungs and has atrial fibrillation and congestive heart failure. May have exaggerated his health issues, but still a miracle and now at 78 he's ancient for a show wrestler. Jake "The Snake" Roberts (1955-) Professional wrestler with a history of alcohol and drug abuse, he's had muscular cancer and was "coma-like" and in ICU with double pneumonia in 2014, has an abnormality in his brain, covid in 2020 and now completely fucked with COPD, in a wheelchair and with a permanent nasal cannula but still keeps hanging on. Battling Henry Kissinger and Leslie Phillips for the title of Last Living Deathlister of 2015. And as the amount of immortal businesspeople isn't quite large currently, here are some suggestions for the future: Charles Dolan (1926-2024) Founder of HBO. Corpse-like in pictures from years ago. Gaston Glock (1929-2023) Two strokes (2008 and 2012) and "ailing" over seven years ago. George Soros (1930-) No health issues but very notable, survived a pipe bomb in 2018. Mortal or an immortal flying 5G space reptile? Baron Jacob Rotschild (1936-2024) Now older than his mother, father and paternal grandfather, widowed in 2019 and looks like the Duke of Kent's long lost uncle. Agewise just a spring chicken compared to most immortals though.

    Great clip of the Terrahawks voice cast reuniting in 2009 and having some fun together. Bryer absolutely brilliant at the end. The voice actors of Terrahawks: Denise Bryer (1928–2021) Windsor Davies (1930–2019) Jeremy Hitchen (b. 1960) Anne Ridler (1930–2011) Robbie Stevens (aka Ben Stevens, b. circa 1960?) Hitchen and Stevens are both still active and were considerably younger than the other three, so there will likely be a big gap between all their deaths.

    I was going to say Prescott's not done any public appearances since his nasty stroke a few years ago, but actually, he made one today as part of the COP build up! Note this was away from cameras bar a few publicity shots, he may have trouble speaking nowadays and not want to appear on TV - understandably.

    Hmm.... okay, while the biggest COVID danger seems to be over now, it's still dangerous with co-morbidities. Which means that all the old people with their chronic cancers, prostate, myeloma, leukemia, are suddenly in higher danger, because we, as a species, have now decided to live with COVID. We're mostly vaccinated, yes, but with potentially millions of asypmtomatic COVID-positive people running around, there will be quite a few victims. I mean, not just Powell, but Robert Durst right now as well, or Tony Marschall, as you can see in the D-A-CH-thread.
