Maybe for you, drol.

Newspaper clipping from January 1958 puts his age at 49. So born 1908/1909. He was from Calcutta, India, but nothing says he was born there. Now he was WWII fighting age and U.S. based in the 40s, so my instinct was to check the draft cards. Bingo. Found him. "Nanjo Singh, born 31 October 1908 in Paldi, India". Was living in NYC in 1943 when drafted. Then I checked the death index and found this, his record "Nanjo Singh, b. 31 Oct 1908, d. 22 Feb 1984 (aged 75) in Las Vegas, Nevada". The Nanjo Singh who died in Calgary in 2006 was definitely Canadian-born in 1930 as per this obit so yes, there is a confusion between two wrestlers with the same name. I'm a great believer in wiping inaccurate info off the net before it spreads too much. Might be worth your while getting in touch with a few of those wrestling sites and putting the record straight.

@arghton, an unsourced edit on Wiki last week (reverted by moi) claims Jedhe died in Pune, India on 30 November 2003 (aged 80). I believe it's probably accurate, yet I can't find a source anywhere, not even a mention on social media. I don't have time today but if you play about with the spelling of his name online a little, you may be able to unearth something on Google (or Google Books). The problem with many of these Indian names is the spelling of their names differs quite a lot when translated into English. Also Indians have a habit of initialising forenames so also try "Gulabrao K Jedhe", "G K Jedhe", "Shri G K Jedhe", "late G K Jedhe" etc. and also try the same searches with also adding his constituency names ("Maharashtra" and "Baramati"). Good luck.

Please not this again. Use the search function and refer to the millions of times he's already been discussed. And also read his "talk" page on Wikipedia. He wasn't alive in 2013. He's likely been dead for decades.

And it's sourced via this news article. Seems that his daughter spoke to the press after journos became curious to learn what became of him. I'll submit to IMDb.

Tamara Ilangaratne is deceased according to this. Edit: Managed to crawl an archived news page here. She died 5 October 2000.

Hanae Mori (wiki), Japanese fashion designer, dead at 96.

The first is most likely deceased. I really do think we're just down to two names now.

Guessing you're a Trump fan?

I imagine your suspicions are correct and he isn't. Like Sudhakar Chaturvedi, he has years worth of details from his biography conveniently missing. Conveniently never got elected to the Lok Sabha either, so no record made of an official birth. I can believe he's 87 in December at a push. There's no way he's turning 97. Must've taken some life advice from Fraudster Singh over the phone. "Just add 15 years on to your claimed age. That way when you're 100 and they think you're 115, they'll consider you a deity and give you loads of attention".

Didn't really know where to post this one. Times death notice for British soldier and courtier Sir Simon Bland (wiki), aged 98. Fought with the Scots Guard during WWII, was a military advisor during the Malayan Emergency, then was private secretary to both Prince Henry, Duke of Gloucester and Prince William of Gloucester, before performing the same role for Prince Richard, Duke of Gloucester and his mother Princess Alice, Duchess of Gloucester.

There's a death notice in The Times today for a Dr Geoffrey Clements, aged 78. Name sounded familiar and I had a Google. If you haven't seen the 1994 party political broadcast for the Natural Law Party, advocating meditation and flying yoga to resolve society's woes, then you need to have a watch here.

I mean there are serious health conditions that pose a risk to your mortality, and then there are having back problems. Look at his body. The man is still gym fit healthy by the looks of it and there appears to be nothing wrong with him other than lower back inflammation.

Updated "The Comedians" list following the death of Duggie Brown.

Updated for the death of Buechner. That's three gone since the start of the year.

Thrown around as an idea on here before but I don't think you guys picked him. Director Wolfgang Petersen (wiki) dead at 81 from pancreatic cancer. Huge name in Hollywood too. Twice nominated for an Oscar. Films include Das Boot, The NeverEnding Story, In the Line of Fire, Air Force One, The Perfect Storm, Troy and Poseidon.

Well I don't known why the AAGPBL responded to me saying she was still alive, because the edit was accurate after all. Death notice and obituary. -
"stabbed 10-15 times", "lying in a pool of his own blood". 75 years old. Can't see him surviving this tbh.
-
The Old Crem hasn't been this excited about drip by drip breaking news updates since the Queen had pancreatic cancer.

That doesn't mean he is ok. Sir David Amess was walking in the moments after being stabbed. A stab wound doesn't kill you immediately.
