Agree, there is worse.

recent picture of Tippi Hedren and her daughter Melanie Griffith. Looks quite frail to me

Stable according to the Albert estein hospital

I almost posted it earlier today. It is quite uncommon to not have a video every week. No sign of life from him since the 18th of november.

did someone take it in the advalanche pool ?

the latter. But beginning of the end too honestly

already rumours about his demise on tweeter. only the beginning imo.

wouln't be surprised if Delors, Le Pen, Van dyke or someone unexpected like Laine jinxes him and snuffs it just before him

If not, this could be a good inclusion to thé survivor circle

Is this « there is no emergency » or « there is now emergency » ?

I dreamt he died. Let's see if it was a premonitory dream.

Bernadette Chirac

Strougal for me please !

Should he be the biggest miss of the year in the award thread ?

Jiang Zemin more like Jiang Zem-out. Surprisingly a solo hit for @JoeMoneypenny and your first point of this pool : congrats ! Yang You in, can you please choose another candidate ?

+1 for my personnal list !

You seem so sure of your conclusion that it doesn’t open any discussion I fear, just like in the case of Dr Young. Anyway as I said, facts can be interpretated in both ways but I think no one is impartial enough to investigate on it unfortunately.

There is no proof her father and husband knew anything at all. and for the other part, saying that they prepared the switch back to a few years before Yvonne death is completely absurd. no intangible proof has been given to unvalidate her age. I have doubt myself sometimes but the two main questions remain : why would they do such a thing ? And how is it possible that no one had noticed and tell.

Have you proofs to support that or is it just your imagination ? And What do you make of all the people Who knew personnally Yvonne and Jeanne (they were wealthy and famous people in their town), and the ones Who came to see Yvonne’s wake ceremony (is it how it’s called ? Veillée funèbre I meant)

do you imagine switching identity for more than 60 years with one of your parent without anyone noticing or telling the truth ? bullshit imo

but you're talking of someone who was supposed to be 118-120 at that time : my own great grandmother who was 102 when she died, even if still mentally sharp, confused a lot of things. She talked about her mother, her daughter (who was dead) as if they were alive, mixing up dates too and sometimes referring as her late husband as her brother. It's not that uncommon to have an old person mixing informations, making mistakes about their life, dates and everything. Also, you nitpicking on details that she, 110 years after the event occurs, should remember vividly and without any mistake. I think it's pretty obvious to say that 100 years later, no one can still be expected to remember a detail of its own history with so much accuracy. I myself have trouble remembering what I ate yesterday so if I ever become a supercentenarian, don't expect me to give accurate details about my youth. Honestly, the debate could go on for years : every small detail can be interpreted either in favour of her case or in disfavour of it. I'm really jealous of those who have a strong opinion on the subject, I myself never questioned the veracity of it until recently and as time goes by, I'm more and more unsure of what I believe or not. I have no opinion on it but it's driving me crazy to not know and I just hope that one day, someone will exhume both bodies and come up with a finale answer. to sum-up : are you pro-french or pro-russian ? End of my participation on this case.

So are you saying you believe in the veracity of her age or the contrary ? Don’t understand

je viens de découvrir que Pierre Castel, milliardaire francais et exilé suisse, président du groupe Castel, est toujours vivant à 96 ans

yes all good thanks !

Does someone ever tried to contact Jean Marie Robine, Michel Allard Francois Hermann or Bernard Jeune rather than Dr. Young ? They're the experts who have validated Calment's age when she was alive and who refuted the russian claims in 2019 edit : here is their full article (for free) claiming she was really 122 after the russian claims appeared in 2019
