    Agreed. Just like Calment.

    Just in my opinion:

     

    Yvonne/Jeanne Calment: 99 years

     

    Marie Louise Meilleur: 117 years & 230 days

     

    Sarah Knauss: 116/119 years & 97 days

    (Nikolay Zak published a paper giving a theory on how Sarah Knauss may have been 3 years younger and was only 116 when she died. However, Zak has also published outrageous theories on how Emma Morano wasn't an SC, Jiroemon Kimura was only 111, and how Kane Tanaka and Lucile Randon were both frauds. These theories are absolute nonsense. Zak's theory on Knauss is a bit more believable due to the fact that we would've had 2 women break the bell curve by nearly 3 years in succession. Something that is incredibly rare. He also has actual documents instead of some wild theory supporting Knauss's age as 3 years younger. Still I wouldn't call it true yet, as it's not enough to prove she was actually 3 years younger. Zak did get one fully right, but the rest are just ridiculous.)

    At the time of Jeanne Calment's title as WOLP:

    (Using the Bell Curve Scientific Method)

     

    Oldest woman ever documented:

    Augusta Holtz: 115 years & 79 days

     

    Theoretical Maximum age for women:

    118 years & 78 days

     

    Jeanne Calment's final age:

    122 years & 164 days

    How can you believe such nonsense ? She looks at most 90 yo, nothing testifies she’s 121. She’s a fraud.

    There is a 1903 census which includes a Batuli Lamichhane. There is a January 1934 census which states her age as 30 years, to which if she was born on 23 March 1903, that would match up perfectly (30 years & 10 months). There are newspaper clippings (although I have not seen these, so this could be a lie) from the late 1930s that state her being in her 30s. Her oldest child was born in 1930, and her youngest in 1939 so it's not like she was claiming to have had a child in her 50s or 60s, she would've only been 35/36 at the time she had her youngest child. Now while this isn't concrete evidence that she is the age claimed, it supports it pretty well. I mean how many other Batuli Lamichhanes are there that she could have gotten her identity confused with? I will admit 120 is a very remarkable age, but it's not over the bell curve anymore. Science says it would be near impossible for a person to live 3 or more years longer than the current record holder due to statistics and probability.  Something which has never been observed before except in the case of one controversial SC who I will not mention by name due to outbursts that might occur. I'll give you an example of what I mean:

     

    Kane Tanaka: 119 years & 107 days

    Theoretical Maximum age for women

    122 years & 106 days

     

     

    Jiroemon Kimura: 116 years & 54 days

    Theoretical Maximum age for men

    119 years & 53 days

     

     

    These theoretical maximum ages only increase when our record is broken. They are just put in place to show that it is near impossible for a future record breaker to live 3 years or more past the previous record holder. If Anisio Rodrigues Alves's age is validated, the new theoretical maximum for men would increase to 119 years & 228 days (Anisio's final age + 3 years - 1 day). Now keep in mind that these are just theoretical maximums, and a person could very well outlive our previous record holder by over 3 years, it's just the probability is so small that it's near zero. 

     

    Keep in mind this doesn't change the fact that Batuli Lamichhane at 120 years & 150 days, falls within the realm of possibility.

    I personally think that the ones that look better and that can last many more years are Maria Branyas and Inah Canabarro Lucas, at least to see their 118th birthday and maybe 119th, Juan Vicente could live about 2 more years. The case of Fusa Tatsumi has been in that state for years and it literally surprises me that she has lived so long.

    Personally in my opinion:

     

    - Batuli Lamichhane, 120 (03.23.1903): Assuming her age is real (which I believe), she has become increasingly fragile over the past 7-8 years. I think she could break 123 if she's really 120 at the moment, but it would be a miracle.

     

     

    - Maria Branyas, 116 (03.04.1907): She looks healthy but a bit frail. I could see her making it to 117½.

     

     

    - Fusa Tatsumi, 116 (04.25.1907): Really unknown with Fusa. I agree with you that she has been in that state for a few years. However thar is a good sign, that her decline is very slow. I think anywhere between 116.5 and 118 is possible with her.

     

     

    - Edie Ceccarelli, 115 (02.05.1908): She looks healthy and strong, but unfortunately her dementia is a factor in play here. I could see her making it to 116, maybe 116.5.

     

     

    - João Da Missanga, 115 (03.13.1908): He has been extremely frail for a number of years, but this is a good sign that although he looks frail he has no serious health issues. I would say he could make it to 116 maybe 117.

     

     

    - Tomiko Itooka, 115 (05.23.1908): She looked healthy but has had a a decline this past year. 115.5 to 117.

     

     

    - Inah Canabarro Lucas, 115 (06.08.1908): Definitely our strongest 115 year old. I could see her making it to 116 and 117 easily. Possibly 118-119, and she's the only candidate on this list unfortunately who I would say has a chance to make it to 120 or even 121.

     

     

    - Juan Vicente Pérez Mora, 114 (05.27.1909): He looks very healthy for his age but fragile. I'd say he could reach 117. His doctor said last year that with his diet, activity and hygiene he could break Jiroemon Kimura’s record easily. He doesn't take medication, has a good heart, has a big appetite for his age, and can still pull himself out of his wheelchair. 

     

     

    - Ethel Caterham, 113 (08.21.1909): Looks very healthy for her age, but I don't know any detail of her current health. I'd say she will make it to 115.

     

     

    - Okagi Hayashi, 113 (09.02.1909): Increasingly frail over these past few years. 114 for her.

     

     

    - Santos Cruz Flores, 113 (11.01.1909): Assuming his age is true, he is in remarkable shape for a 113 year old man. Not only can he walk unaided, but he still does some yard work apparently. It is a bit suspicious at how healthy he is, but giving him the benefit of the doubt, I'd say he could make it to 115 easily. He's the only male candidate here who look healthy enough to reach 118 or 119, but again his age is unvalidated. 

     

     

    - Efrain Antonio Rios Garcia, 113 (04.04.1910): He is looking very frail recently, but apparently can still walk. 113.75.

    Recent updates:

     

    - Mr. Seliman Bandang confirmed alive on 9 July 2023. Now claiming a birthyear of 1909 rather than his original claim of 1910. Just lost a lot of credibility.

     

    - Mr. João Da Missanga confirmed alive at the age of 115 years & 4 months on 26 July 2023. I think he's definitely a plausible case and should be investigated further. Very frail since around his 115th birthday in March.

     

    - Miss. Batuli Lamichhane confirmed alive at the age of 120 years & 4 months on 27 July 2023. Looks about the same as she did when she was 117 in 2020. Frail. Appeared strong in the 2015 update when she was 112. Has a 1934 census and several 1930s newspaper clippings supporting her age. Possible chance of being the age claimed. But each year as she gets older, the statistics in reaching such an age get slimmer and slimmer and the chances of her actually being the age claimed get lower and lower. I thought Maria Gomes dos Reis was plausible when she was 119 but once she 122 I got very skeptical.

     

    - Mr. Jose Flores Flores confirmed alive at the age of 116 years & 19 days on 30 July 2023. Seemed healthy and strong until he began a gradual decline around his 114th birthday in 2021. But considering he's survived 2 bouts of covid, a serious urinary infection, and a bad reaction to a certain medicine in these last 2 years, he's doing better than I probably would in my late 20s. He's got a 1907 baptismal certificate and a 1907 census document attesting his age, along with a 95 year old child. Maybe not 116, but I'd say at least 110 if his 95 year old child's age is correct.

    He doesn’t even have a wiki page and I’ve never heard of them. There seems to a lot of Central and South American male claimants who are not getting validated, especially in Brazil. What percentage of those kinds of claimants do you guys think are true?

    The ones above 110, I'd say 40%

    The ones aged 111 to 114, I'd say 20-30%

    The women aged 115 to 116, I'd say less than 5%, but they DO exist. 

    The only men over 115 that I think are true is João Da Missanga and of course Anisio Rodrigues Alves. If there's a 117 year old man who's true, he was probably born after 1900. And there's probably 2-3 women who are 117 and true, 1 maybe 2 women who are 118 and true and POSSIBLY a woman 119 or over that's true. Just my opinion

    Why is nobody talking about João Da Missanga? He was born in Brazil on 13 March 1908, and is considered plausible by the GRG. If his age is true, he may be the oldest living man in the world.

    I’m sure we’ll have a man reach 115 and another woman reach 118 within the next couple decades, maybe before the end of this decade. Kimura’s record wouldn’t be too hard to beat, but 120 may not be reachable for a while. 122 might never be reached again but who knows. The recent deaths of Nina Willis, Hazel Plummer, and Ushi Makishi, some of the greatest-looking SCs in history have completely dashed my hopes, Nina even beating Stan Kowalski’s running time at the age of 113.5. Calment was a goddamn miracle if her case is true especially considering she was before 2000.

    I personally think that our current doyen, Don Juan Vicente Pérez Mora will live to see 117 as for several reasons.

     

    1. His personal physician said last year on his 113th Birthday that he is in good health, with a good heart, and even he said that Juan is a person that will live to see more years.

     

    2. His decline is slower than most other SCs which is a good thing.

     

    3. He is mostly wheelchair-bound. His body remains without having to over-exert itself, and therefore increases his lifespan. (Only applies to SCs, who had longevity in their genes) This also greatly minimizes his chances of falls, or accidents. 

     

    4. The statistics are in his favor. One man born around or close to, every decade reaches a new age.

    1850s - Turner, 111

    1860s - NONE

    1870s - Cole, 112

    1880s - Frazier, 113 & Mortensen, 115 (makes up for no cases of the 1860s)

    1890s - Kimura, 116 (or if Anisio's case is true, it still fits here)

    1900s - Mora, 117 (And he's the last verified man from this decade as well)

    1910s - Some future man, 118

    Now, there's no science behind these statistics, but it is interesting to note. Since Turner reached 111, the longest we've ever gone without having a man reach a new age is 20 years. The 20 year gap was represented by Turner (b. 1856) and Cole (b. 1876). Applying this to Kimura, 116 (b. 1897) the latest we should see a 117 year old man be born is 1917. 1917 + 117 = 2034. 

     

    However, the average difference between these cases is 11.75 years, or 11 years and 9 months. Judging by this, we should expect a 117 year old man 11 years & 9 months after Kimura turned 116, so in January of 2025. This almost perfectly aligns with Mora's 117th birthday in May of 2026. Of course, the difference is not always going to be 11 years and 9 months, but it's an average based estimate. 

     

    Just my thoughts, again not backed by science

    I wanna hear your opinions on longevity.

     

    When do you think we will see a validated 117 year old man?

     

    A validated 123 year old woman?

     

    Do you think a 117 year old man/123 year old woman exists but just hasn't been discovered yet? Similar to Anisio Rodrigues Alves?

     

    Do you think we'll ever see 3 living men in the Top 10 again? Possibly 4?

    (We had 3 at the time of Yukichi Chuganji, John McMorran, and Joan Riduavets Moll, and then again for Walter Breuning, Horacio Celi Mendoza, and Jiroemon Kimura.)

     

    Do you think a man will ever hold the title for World's Oldest Person Ever again, the way Geert Adriaans Boomgaard did?

     

    When will we see 2 living women over 118 again, the way we did for Kane Tanaka and Lucile Randon?

     

    What will the supercentenarian records and averages look like in 20 years from now? (2043)

     

    I think we'll see our first validated 117 year old man on 27 May, 2026 when Don Juan Vicente Pérez Mora celebrates his 117th birthday. As for 123 year old woman, I think by 2062 the latest. If we increase the max life span for women by 1 year at a maximum of 10 years (Excluding Jeanne Calment) we will see a 120 year old woman by 2032, a 121 year old woman by 2042, another 122 year old woman by 2052, and finally our 123 year old woman by 2062. I think it's very possible we had a 117, 118, 119 year old man who hasn't been discovered yet, and is a "male" version of Calment, but I doubt any women older than Calment existed, as Calment is already an extreme outlier. As for 3 living men in the Top 10, that may occur for Juan Vicente Pérez Mora, Efrain Antonio Rios Garcia, and Gisaburo Sonobe. I doubt a man will ever hold the title for WOPE, but I do think we will see 2 118+ women in the next decade. At least by 2042.

     

    I predict that in 2043, we will have seen at least one 117 year old man (Juan Vicente Pérez Mora), and possibly our first 118 year old man (Gisaburo Sonobe). I also predict that by 2043, the minimum requirements for Top 10 oldest men ever will stand at 115, and Horacio Celi Mendoza, Walter Breuning, Yukichi Chuganji, Tomas Pinales, and Joan Riduavets Moll will be pushed below 10th place. Either a future man that lived between 115 years & 0 days to 115 years & 155 days will be in 10th place, or Emiliano Mercado del Toro will be. I think Emiliano will be somewhere between place 8 and place 15. I also predict that another future man will live around 116 years and 120-180 days, thus closing the gap between Kimura and Alves. For men, 116 will be as common as 114 is today. And for women, 119 will be as common as 117 is today. The gap between Tanaka and Calment will also be closed with at least one 120 year old and one 121 year old woman validated. Just my thoughts. Let's hear yours...

    The last volume of the trilogy on the world's oldest con artist Jeanne Calment, the Secret of Longevity Unravelled: Volume III, The Calment affair: How we know that the “oldest person who ever lived” was faking her age: Zak, Nikolay, Gibbs, Philip: 9798395710628: Amazon.com: Books

    My gosh Zak, we get it. Honestly I was interested in your Calment study, but there was hardly any documents translated in English. And The ones that were, are too difficult to understand. Not to mention you talk to your audience like they're scholars who have phds in the subject. I'm just an ordinary guy who's interested in the Calment case. I know language translation can be difficult, but you might get a wider audience if you just translated more of your stuff to English and made it easier to comprehend. And by the way I thought you lost a lot of credibility in your new paper when you said that Kimura could've only been 111. He was without any doubts, 116. Stop coming up with bizarre theories that don't make any sense. Kimura was 116, final word.

    My opinion on Deceased Supercentenarians:

    - Li Ching Yuen, 256, Fake. No explanation needed. Unless Li Ching Yuen was a Greenlandic Shark... he did not live for 256 years.

     

    - James Olofintuyi, 174, Fake. Claimed to have a 29 year old son at the time of his death. 

     

    - Dhaqabo Ebba, 163, Fake. Claimed to have a living 128 year old son at the time of his death.

     

    - Niels Paulsen, 160, Fake. Claimed to have a 9 year old son at the time of his death. I found the same exact story of a 160 year old man claiming to have a 9 year old son in a satire-themed comic book. Idea was obviously stolen, and tried to pass off as real. 

     

    - Mbah Gotho, 146, Fake. This man was not 146. His birthday was Claimed to be 31 December 1870, which is a placeholder birthday. He likely didn't know when he was born, so a random date was chosen for him. I'm willing to bet he was probably born in the early 1900s decade, and was probably 108-114 when he died. Not 146. However, I will add that I think it is possible that Mbah Gotho was older than Israel Kristal at the time of his death in April 2017, and may have been the World's Oldest Living Man at the time of his death. BUT, if he was older than Kristal, it was likely less than a year older. Should be investigated further.

     

    - John Smith, 137, nearly 100% fake. A study was done on Chief John Smith which concluded he was probably 96-99 when he died. He claimed to be 7, 8, 9, or 10 "when the stars fell". This is most likely referring to the Leonid Meteor Shower of 1833. This would place his birth year between 1823 and 1826 instead of his claimed birth year of 1784. Meaning that when he died in 1922, he was either 96, 97, 98, or 99. However there is an odd twist to this story, which is why I did not list him as totally fake. Some researchers did a study after Smith died, and they discovered that there was another meteor shower that occurred in 1792. This would accurately place Smith's birth year in 1784, thus making him 137 when he died. The strange thing was, is that it seems he had inside knowledge of the 1792 meteor shower, prior to the researchers who did the study. My guess is that he had likely heard of the 1792 meteor shower from his father, and mixed it up with his own memory. Or, it was just a big coincidence. If Smith really made it to 137, that means that at the time of his death, he would have broken Boomgaard's record by 27 years. A statistical near impossibility. I consulted a gerontologist, and according to the mathematical formula, the odds of Smith achieving the age of 137, would have a lower bound of 1 in 134 trillion. I wouldn't exactly call him a hoax yet, as rarer things have occurred, but unfortunately it's pretty safe to say he did not reach 137.

     

    - Koku Istambulova, 129, She honestly does have some decent documentation but it's not enough to prove her age. I'm going to say fake, because she was a very unhappy person in life. Optimists live longer. I highly doubt a negative person would have made it to 129.

     

    - Maria Do Cormo Geronimo, 129, Honestly Mrs. Geronimo does seriously surprise me. She doesn't have any birth records, but she does have vivid memories of being a Brazilian slave. Since she has memories of slavery in Brazil, she had to have been at least 3 years old, making her at least 115 when she died. She even had whip marks on her back from being a slave. She may not have been 129 when she died, but I'm going to guess she was between 115 and 122 with 120 being the most likely age. 

     

    - Johanna Mazibuko, 128, ???

     

    - Luo Meizhen, 127, researchers found that Mrs. Meizhen was more like 115 when she died. Not 127. I'm going to go with the researchers on this one. She indeed did have signs of extreme old age, commonly found in Supercentenarians. 

     

    - Benito Martinez Abrogan, 126, This case was very unusual. Mr. Abrogan immigrated from Haiti to Cuba in the 1920s but his age wasn't given. He had a very healthy and fit lifestyle and ate lots of fresh rice and vegetables. Mr. Abrogan also ate lots of cassava, which has been proven to slow down the shortening of telomeres, and lower blood pressure. He never owned a car, but walked everywhere he went; another factor into supporting his longevity. He was nicknamed the Aeroplane for the speed at which he worked, while helping construct the highway across Cuba. This is a good sign, as he would've had to have been extremely healthy to outspeed all the other workers, as his boss and co-workers claimed. He doesn't have any documentation, nor does he show any signs of extreme aging, but the Cuban government and Cuban medical experts say that he was at least 119 years old at the time of his death. They claimed to have run tests on him, and said he was indeed between 119 and 126 when he died, however there is no proof of this. Again, his claimed birthdate is June, 19, 1880, which is a placeholder birthdate. He likely didn't know his actual birthdate, so he guessed. However, because of his extremely healthy lifestyle, I'm willing to guess he was born in the late 1880s, and was thus between 116 and 120 when he died. He died between many of the longest lived men on the planet, McMorran, Chuganji, Moll, and Del Toro. I think it's entirely possible that this man was indeed born in 1887 (not his claimed birthdate of 1880), and was actually 119 when he died. Extremely unlikely, but possible. 

     

    - Jackson Pollock, 126, I personally found evidence that if Mr. Pollock was born the year he claimed to have been born, his father would have been only 5 years old at the time of his son's birth. His age was probably exaggerated by 20 years, and he was more likely 106, and not 126. One thing is for sure though, he was not born in the year he claimed to be born. 

     

    - Francisca Susano, 124, I have spent a decent amount of time researching Mrs. Susano's case and I have never found any hard evidence against her. However, that doesn't mean there isn't any. Her eldest child would've been over 100 at the time of her death, strengthening her case a bit. But first we have to prove her child's age wasn't exaggerated. I think she is definitely worth considering.

     

    - Juana Chox Yac, 123, Doubtful

     

    - Hava Rexa, 123, Doubtful

     

    - Belle Rhymes, 123, She also claims to have suffered a constant asthma attack for 99 years straight. Willing to bet the whole story is made up. I sincerely doubt that a human could survive a constant asthma attack that lasted nearly a century, and I doubt this woman lived to be 123.

     

    - Sudhakar Chaturvedi, 122, I really don't know what to think of Mr. Chaturvedi's case. He has lots of documentation dating back to the early 1900s, but that doesn't mean he was born when he said he was. 

     

    - Zhang Daoling, 122, This man claimed to have lived 122 years, and died in the year 156 A.D. I highly doubt he lived this long, back in times where the average lifespan was 35-50 years of age. I'm going to go with fake. He was probably a mythical figure.

     

    - Magomed Labazanov, 122, Doubtful. This man claimed to have still been able to walk at 121??? Very unlikely. He does appear to be very old from the videos shown on YouTube. Probably more like 112 when he died and not 122. He honestly does have the appearance of someone who is over 100, but saying that he is 122 is a massive stretch. 

     

    - Celino Villanueva, 121, Fake. Mr. Villanueva does not show any signs of extreme old age associated with Supercentenarians. If I had to guess his age, I would have said he was about 95 or 96, not 121. His age was probably either exaggerated by 20 years, making him 101 when he died, and not 121, or his identity was mixed up with his father's, making him less than 105. 

     

    - Jesus Castillo Rangel, 121, Seriously? 121??? This guy looks more like 81 rather than 121. I doubt he was even in his 90s. 

     

    - Shigechiyo Izumi, 120, We could talk about Izumi's case all day... I am going to go with possibly on this one. Now if you're not familiar with the Izumi case, Shigechiyo Izumi claimed to have been born in 1865 and died at the age of 120 in 1986 (before celebrating his 121st birthday). Now researchers found another Shigechiyo Izumi born in 1880, but with no death certificate. It's possible that our 1865 Izumi got mixed up with our 1880 Izumi and our 1865 Izumi was only 105 when he died. However our 1865 born Izumi claimed to have been given up for adoption in 1871, aged 6, and started work at a sugar mill in 1872, aged 7. This right here would prove that he was not mixed up with our 1880 Izumi, and thus was the age claimed. BUT, there are several problems with this case. One, is that our 1865 born Izumi could be lying. And two, is that there is no documentation or definite proof that he was adopted in 1871 or started work in 1872. I think that a professional researcher, should try and locate some documentation of a Shigechiyo Izumi being adopted in 1871, or work papers of a Shigechiyo Izumi from 1872. Unfortunately, most documentation like this was not common in the 1870s. We may never know the real truth about Izumi. I will add, that the pictures of Izumi aged 120 in 1986, do indeed look like a 120 year old man. He shows all the characteristic signs of extreme aging, commonly found in a Supercentenarian. The whites of his eyes even have signs of extreme old age, and appear darkened in color. Something I've never seen in a person under 110.

     

    - Du Pinhua, 120, I have not researched her case enough but it seems like Mrs. Pinhua was indeed 120 when she died. She has all the signs of extreme aging, and elderly people of her village say she was a middle aged woman when they were kids. An 80 year old man who had known her all his life, said he remembers her being aged 40, when he was born. 80 + 40 = 120, thus supporting Pinhua's age. Unfortunately her case seemed to run into a lot of dead ends, and I can't find much more evidence than that of her being 120. I'd still say she has the strongest case of everyone on this list though. 

     

    - Rebecca Lanier, 120, looks more like 80. Fake. This woman shows no signs of extreme aging. 

     

    - Ignacio Aguilar Jaramillo, 119, I would have to go with... fake. Apparently he could still dance at age 115? A very unusual feat for a Supercentenarian. I don't believe he was 119. 

     

    - Kamu Tongnumchokdee, 119, Dude looks like he's barely 89. Apparently he could still walk, and carry out farm work at the age of 119. The oldest that I would believe he was, is probably 105, but no more than that. His age was probably either exaggerated by 20 or 30 years, and he was probably either 89 or 99 when he died. Not 119. 

     

    - Oh Yoon-ah, 118, Doubtful. This woman claims to have still gotten on the exercise Bike for 20 minutes a day at age 115. Not completely impossible as Maurice Floquet achieved this at 111, and as female SCs are in better shape than male SCs, it's not entirely impossible, but very unlikely. I'd compare this to being struck by lightning 3 times, and meeting someone who was struck by lightning 4 times. Not completely impossible, but hard to believe and verify. 

     

    - Goddard Diamond, 118, Now this case is a weird one. Mr. Goddard Diamond claimed to have been born in 1796 and died in 1914. Mr. Diamond was featured in an interview in 1896 where he claimed to be 100 years old. He appears in good shape, and he claimed to have had a routine where he applied olive oil to his body every day. There is also pictures of Mr. Diamond from 1861 at the claimed age of 65, where he indeed looks like a 65 year old man. There is early life documentation of Mr. Diamond supporting a 1796 birthdate, and thus making him 118 when he died. But, there is also documentation supporting a 1805 birthdate, and making him only 109 when he died. I honestly don't know what to think of this case. I think this would take a professional researcher to figure out, and find more documentation of either him being born in 1796 and being the oldest man ever, or being born in 1805 and not even being a Supercentenarian. One piece of evidence that strengthens his case, is the 1861 documentation and picture of him being 65. If the 1805 birthdate us accurate, I highly doubt a 56 year old man would look this old. But again, if he was 118 when he died, the probability of a man surpassing Boomgaard by 8 years of close to nothing. It is worth noting however that Calment passed the female record by 9.

     

    - Jintaro Tanaka, 118, Possible but unlikely. Researchers at the Calment Project actually verified this man to have died in 1997 on his 118th birthday. He had all the nesscessary documentation, and the statistics fit perfectly in line with his life being around the same time as Calment, Knauss, and Mortensen. He would even close the gap of the oldest living man, before Mortensen. However, there was one little problem. The same researchers at the Calment Project later found that another Jintaro Tanaka had died in the 1960s, and the birthplace and wife's name matched exactly. It IS possible that there was another Jintaro Tanaka also born in 1879, who had the same wife's name, but what are the chances? I'm going to go with Doubtful, but I wouldn't call him fake just yet.

     

    - Teriihaeretei Taaroa, 117, I found documentation from an ancestry website sourcing that Mr. Taaroa was actually 104 when he died, and not 117. Now unless this incredibly accurate ancestry website is wrong...

     

    - Andrew Hatch, 117, Fake. Mr. Hatch claimed to have lived between 1898 and 2015, BUT he does not appear in a census until 1930, as a baby. This means he was probably only 85 at the time of his death. The only way he could have actually been 117, is if somehow he avoided all census recordings, all forms of documentation, and lied about his age stating that he was under a year old, when he in fact was 32. Extremely unlikely, considering the time period he lived in.

     

    - Juan Pablo Villalobos Maradiaga, 116, I did a heavy amount of research on his case, and found absolutely nothing to disprove Mr. Maradiaga's age. Although, I will say I didn't find much evidence to begin with. He did indeed have a son who would've been 95 at the time of his death, meaning that he couldn't have been much younger than the age claimed. Some researchers found a Juan Pablo Villalobos Maradiaga born 5 years after our 116 year old Juan Pablo. Unfortunately though, the birthplace is wrong. That leaves us with 2 possibilities. Most likely situation, is that Juan Pablo was only 111 when he died, and the census made a mistake on his birthplace. Even so, he would have still been the 1st Supercentenarian of El Salvador, and oldest man recorded of El Salvador, until Santos Rivas narrowly outlived him in 2023. The second situation, is that the census is of a different Juan Pablo Villalobos Maradiaga meaning that his age is still unknown, and he may have indeed been older than Kimura when he died. I'm going to go with 111, but I won't exactly rule out 116 yet.

     

    - Bernando Lapollo, 114, FAKE! This guy doesn't stop changing his story. Researchers did a study and found out he was more likely in his 100s when he died. Not 114.

     

     

    Anyway let me know what you think...

    No it isn’t. Certainly not in the quantities you’ll find in water.

    Seriously. I read an article that talked about how lab rats were poisoned after drinking fluoride. There's also a book called "Man's Higher Consiousness" which also states that drinking unfluoridated water prolongs life.

    Oh, I think microplastics will turn us all into immortal dolls. I'm 40 years old now, but feel like 25. I'll keep on drinking out of plastic bottles until I'm 100% plastic and recycleable.

    Water from plastic bottles is healthier than tap water, because tap water contains fluoride. Fluoride is very bad for the body.
