Current TOP 10 1) Kane Tanaka 118:280 2) Lucile Randon 117:239 3) Antonia da Santa Cruz 116:117 4) Tekla Juniewicz 115:120 5) Thelma Sutcilffe 115:007 6) Valentine Ligny 114:351 7) Yoshi Otsunari 114:296 8) Maria Branyas Morera 114:218 9) Casilda Benegas 114:183 10) Fusa Tatsumi 114:167

Fusa Tatsumi, whose age is 114 years and 167 days, has entered the top 10 oldest living people. She is likely the frailest of all the top 10 (We don't know the condition of Yoshi Otsunari as she used to be anonymous and no photos of her are given publicly).

After Dos Santos's death less than a month before her 117th birthday, only the top 2 is still standing.

Francisca Celsa dos Santos at the age of 116 years and 348 days has become oldest validated person from Latin America ever. She surpassed Maria Capovilla.

Lucile Randon has entered top 5 oldest ever after surpassing Marie-Louise Meilleur. Fun fact: Both Jeanne Calment and Lucile Randon come from towns of south France, which also have similar names: Arles and Alès. Their distance is only 75 kilometers.

Kane Tanaka is 118 + 3/4 years.

Thelma Sutcliffe turned 115. There are 6 verified people of age 115+ now. (Tanaka-Randon-Dos Santos-da Santa Cruz-Juniewicz-Sutcliffe).

Nahi Yonamine's age (b.1908, Okinawa, Japan)was validated. She is 113 years and 197 days. https://gerontology.wikia.org/wiki/Nahi_Yonamine

Anonymous of Fukuoka, 8th oldest living person and 62nd oldest person ever, name is revealed to be Yoshi Otsunari.

I think that she looks OK. She declines quite slowly. Going much further than 119 has been done literally by only one person.

It's September 2021 and she's still here...

Kane Tanaka surpassed Josefa Salas Mateo's time as World's Oldest Living Person (3 years, 47 days). There are only two longer records: Jeanne Calment's (9 years, 205 days) and Mary Kelly's (5 years, 36 days)

After Dos Santos became oldest ever third oldest living person (surpassing previous record of Sarah Knauss - 116 years and 314 days), now Lucile Randon ties with Sarah Knauss' record of oldest ever second oldest living person at the age of 117 years and 204 days. It took nearly 25 years but finally both Sarah Knauss' records were broken.

Maria Branyas Morera, 9th oldest living person, has entered the top 100 oldest validated people ever. There are now living people from five year cohorts in the top 100 oldest validated people ever.

As of today, 1st September 2021, (in Japan) Kane Tanaka is for 5 years and 7 days in the top 10 oldest living people, since 25 August 2016.

Francisca Celsa dos Santos has tied Sarah Knauss as the oldest person to be in third place, at the age of 116 years and 314 days.

Evangelista Luisa Lopez, 14th oldest person dead at 114 years and 68 days from pneumonia. She was very healthy-looking.

Top 3 (Tanaka-Randon-Dos Santos) is stable for exactly 2 years. Since 27 August 2019 (Shin Matsushita's death).

Ruth Apilado oldest living person notable for reasons other than longevity, died at 113 years and 107 days.

Dos Santos, currently at 116 years and 304 days, is close to being the oldest ever third oldest living person too. The record is currently held by Sarah Knauss (116 years and 314 days).

Nearly three months after they keep standing. -Tanaka is more than one year older than Marie-Louise Meilleur,5th oldest ever verified. -Randon has surpassed Violet Brown's age and has become 6th oldest ever verified. -Dos Santos has managed to be just two months away from her 117th birthday.

Maude Harris, 15th oldest living verified person, turns 114 today too.

Sofia Rojas, oldest living documented person of Colombia, turned 114.

Rip. So logically the title goes to Saturnino de la Fuente Garcia

Delina Filkins became the oldest verified person ever after surpassing Louisa Thier's age in 1926. She held this title for 54 years (that's a record too) until Fannie Thomas in 1980 surpassed this age. Jeanne Calment has held the same title for 31 years since surpassing Augusta Holtz's age in 1990. Today, Delina Filkins is only the... 237th oldest verified person ever and all the living validated female supercentenarians are older. I really wonder if something like that will also happen someday with Calment.
