Jerry Lewis' ability to not die is quite impressive. Health protocol for Jerry Lewis: 1960: Heart attack 1965: Back injury 1982: ”Clinically dead” from heart attack 1983: Open heart surgery 1992: Prostate cancer surgery 1999: Meningitis 2001: Heart problems 2002: Collapsed 2003: Hospitalized for pulmonary fibrosis 2006: Heart attack & pneumonia 2012: Hypoglycemia + Diabetes

Well, Wilford Brimley has been in my main DDP team twice in a row (out of three). Like Dunn, people think he's looked old for a long time: http://www.imdb.com/name/nm0000979/board/thread/220211234 He is a spokesperson for diabetes and gets parodied a lot on Youtube. ttp://www.youtube.com/watch?v=KICIOYlZTr8 Other facts: He's a mormon, is buddies with John McCain, was once a bodyguard to Howard Hughes and supports cockfighting.

You mean if he died in a plane crash subsequently?

What a stupid comment. If a person doesn't want her name revealed to the rest of the world, she automatically stops being a living person?

Well, based on our well-researched (but poorly drawn) family tree, I should live to be at least 80 like most of my ancestors. I have a fairly healthy lifestyle too. Also, medical advancement will likely increase at an exponential rate in the distant future, so add +15 to that. June 23, 2090, at age 96 seems like a good bet.

One of the most interesting bits in the article is this quote - "Cary has been in hospital twice since Christmas, with pneumonia. “I haven’t really got much time left,” she says." I'd take that quote with a grain of salt. One of the other people mentioned in the article, Lassie Lou Ahern, claims that the journalist twisted her words: June 18, 2015:

Well, 98 is Zsa Zsa's chronological age. That is what we get when subtracting 2015 with 1917. However, her biological age is probably a lot lower. People's bodies age at different rates, so she might be the equivalent of an "average" 78-year old's body. Biological age can't be easily determined or calculated as an exact science, though maybe biomarkers might help us with that in the future. Since at least one of her parents lived to be 100+, she likely inherited a disposition for longevity through her genes rather than living long because of attitude/lifestyle/luck. Her sisters, Magda and Eva, both died in their 80s. Did they inherit the same good genetics? Well, their lives were fairly long, but I'd say that Zsa Zsa was the one who lucked out the most. Sometimes, certain genetic traits can skip generations, and Eva Gabor's hypothetical daughter could've inherited Jolie's genes too. So, basically, it is possible for Zsa Zsa to have been a vegetable for this long if her body had aged slower than most of her contemporaries when her health problems began.

Who, On The 2015 Death List, Would You Like To Meet?
Predictor replied to Davey Jones' Locker's topic in DeathList Forum
I try to imagine what an encounter with all the living people in the DL would look like: Zsa Zsa Gabor: [Hands over a ”Survivor of the decade” diploma] João Havelange: ”Whoa dude, you’re old enough to be Sepp Blatter’s father. Are you?” Herman Wouk: ”I’ll probably be 100 myself by the time I’m done reading all your published works." Billy Graham: "Umm, okey...thank you Reverend Graham for that interesting two-hour long lecture about how great Jesus Christ is. But all I asked was ”how are ya?" Olivia de Havilland: ”Hey, wait a minute. Is that a dart board with a picture of Joan Fontaine’s face on that wall over there?!” Javier Pérez de Cuéllar: ”You shouldn’t feel bad about being the forgotten UN Secretary-General. As a Swede, I can assure you that things could be a lot worse.” Denis Healey: [Don’t stare at his eyebrows, be polite. Don’t stare at his eyebrows, be polite] George Bush Sr: "What was the point of giving your first AND one of your middle names to your son? Was the president gene located in the ”W”?" Prince Philip: ”So let me get this straight...you’re a prince who’s married to a queen? That sounds kinda incestuous...” Helmut Schmidt: ”Does your first name protect you from head injuries? No? You think I’m mind-numbingly unfunny? Fair enough.” Fidel Castro: ”FUCKING BAST...oh, is that a Cuban cigar? Can I try one, pretty please?” Kirk Douglas: ”I beg your pardon? What did you just say? Could you write that sentence on a piece of paper?” Clive James: ”Nice meeting you, mate. Or should I say Vivian?” Al Molinaro: ”Oh, so you really ARE alive...” Valerie Harper: ”A spin-off show that actually didn’t fail? Impressive.” Maureen O’Hara: ”It’s an honour to meet you. I’m O’Predictor.” Martin Crowe: ”You’re my second-favourite cricketer in the whole wide world after Jiminy.” Bhumibol Adulyadej: ”Do you realize how much it would suck for you if you died before June 9, 2016”? Helmut Kohl: [uninvites Predictor after a phone call from Mr. Schmidt] Leslie Phillips: ”All I’m asking is for you to determine which Hogwarts house I would be in if I were a wizard.” Ken Kercheval: ”Five bottles is more than enough now, Mr. Kercheval...” Harper Lee: ”Did an angry mob from PETA ever go after you because of the title you chose for your bestseller?” Bob Dole: ”There's this really cool thing called first person pronoun. You should totally try it sometime.” Joost van der Westhuizen: ”I hate it when too young people get really ill, so I hope you recover and score a rugby touchdown." Doris Day: [Asks about working with Hitchcock] Peter O’Sullevan: ”No, I’m afraid I don’t watch horse racing." [Awkward silence] George Cole: ”Don’t you think you were a little too old to play the part of ”Boy” in the 1944 film Henry V?" Peter Sallis: ”I’m hungry. Got any cheese, Mr. Sallis?” Denis Norden: ”Mr. Norden, I'm sitting right here. That thing you've been talking to for the past few minutes is a bookshelf." Henry Kissinger: ”I’m really flattered by your kind words, but it was actually our neighbours, the Norwegians, that gave you the Nobel Peace Prize, not us.” Jake LaMotta: [Note to self: Do not say anything that will piss Jake LaMotta off] Cliff Michelmore: "Psst, tell me, were you in on the whole Moon landing scam in 1969, directed by Kubrick?” Nancy Reagan: ”FIRST lady, SECOND wife would make a great tombstone inscription, don’t you agree?” Hosni Mubarak: ”Let’s start a viking-pharao pact, Mr. Mubarak.” Liz Smith: ”Got any old pictures of yourself from the 1940s?” Robert Mugabe: ”FUCKING BASTARD!” Chuck Berry: ”Could you teach me how to play the guitar?” Richard Adams: ”No, Mr. Adams, I haven’t read any of your books, I’m afraid.” [Awkward silence] Jake Roberts: ”You’re too young for this. C’mon, use your wrestling skills to fight off death.” Vera Lynn: ”Sorry, none of my grandparents were veterans, but I’m sure they liked you anyways.” Eddie Large: ”Oh, you’re nothing but a Laurel and Hardy rip-off.” Bill Maynard: ”At last, my final visit!” :rolleyes:- 36 replies

Shaun, let me quote parts from a 2000 article about Michael and Catherine's then upcoming wedding. and The memoir was published in 1999: http://www.amazon.com/In-Wings-Diana-Douglas-Darrid/dp/1569801517 Since they, as you say, appeared in a film together in 2003, they either reconciled or only agreed to appear in it for financial reasons.

I had a look at Stella Stevens' IMDb page, and it seems that she's in bad shape. A few users claimed that she might have Alzheimer's and that she is living in the Motion Picture Home (which basically is a retirement home for old actors/showbiz people). This was her previous home. Famous for her role in The Nutty Professor (NOT the Eddie Murphy version, mind you), Stella is born on October 1, 1938. This means that she would be worth 7 whole points should she demise before 2018. I don't think anyone picked her for this years' DDP.

Less than two months later, he caught pneumonia! He seemed to have recovered from it quickly, though. http://www.rediff.com/movies/report/dilip-kumar-is-recovering-out-of-icu/20141209.htm

Foreign Personalities, From Stage, Screen, Politics And Life
Predictor replied to Davey Jones' Locker's topic in DeathList Forum
Just bringing the master list of famous foriegn actors and actresses forward because I hadn't updated it for a while. I have also (finally!) integrated a lot (but not yet all) of the surviving members of Predictor's October 2013 list into the master one. UPDATE: I have now also integrated CaptainChorizo's list of directors. Nice work. But Vera Gebuhr died in December 2014. Also, Guje Lagerwall was born in 1918, not 1920. She's not likely to get even a local obit, though. She wasn't that much of a star to begin with, and is never mentioned in the media. Her death will probably be noticed solely through her absence in the population database for living Swedes. (I checked a few minutes ago, she's very much alive as of today). -
dead Connie Sawyer - Oldest Working Member Of The Screen Actors Guild

BREAKING NEWS: A 14-year old boy claims to have discovered a woman who has already been in the public eye for over 60+ years. What's next, you'll see some mysterious stones at Salisbury Plain and call it your discovery too? -
Ok, so she's a bitch and you desperately hope that she die on her special day. Any other anti-Olivia opinions you'd like to share with us? FYI: Unlike spouses and friends, you don't choose your family members. So, naturally, you won't get along with every single one of them. When two different personalities clash, usually neither side is 100% innocent.

Oh, but of course! How stupid of me to forget about Just Fontaine. For a moment, I wondered whether you might've not heard about Joan's demise, although it didn't appear likely from a deadpool veteran like you. My maternal grandpa has told me quite a few times about the '58 tournament. He saw one of the games live in the stadium: Hungary vs Mexico, which ended in a 4-0 victory for the Hungarians. (Sorry for off-topic)

Incidentally, not saying you're wrong, but my list based on the front page is only at 245 now. Spoiler tagged below, who am I missing? Windsor must have a copy of the fabled 1988 list (which accounts for 4 of the deaths absent from your list).you are missing prince Rainier and Dom Knott's Neither of those were on the Deathlist, that I know. I'm going by the lack of mention of them on the main page, and people mentioning they were left off the lists at the time of their respective deaths on this forum. In fact, the Reaper himself said Rainier was a bad miss. Hey! This is unrelated to the discussion in this thread, but...is that Joan Fontaine on the last row in your signature? Or some other well-known J. Fontaine?

It's been 9 days now since you wrote that. I'd suggest you apologize for this out-of-line comment.

Reasons to doubt it’s the REAL Al Molinaro... The person in the picture is wearing glasses. As far as I’m concerned, Al Molinaro never wore any glasses. Look at the environment in which the photo is taken in. Hardly the type place that one would expect from an retired, experienced Hollywood actor with considerable wealth. Stars prefer luxurious surroundings, regardless of their age! It’s quite hard for a heavy guy to stand up at age 96. The previous hoax photo was more realistic in that aspect. The person in this image is obviously a younger man, i.e. Giovanni, 76. Normally, when you upload pictures of yourselves online, you don’t put fancy photo frames around them like Scott did here. What exactly is the frame trying to cover up from the original picture? Hmm. The picture is obviously a few years old. Looks like year 2000 or some shit. It's Al, ya nut. All 250 irrelevant pounds of him! Hell yeah, on the basis that no other human being so readily combined sharp features and general corpulence, I concur with the good Dr Zorders. It's good luck for him he was born in Wisconsin cos if he'd been in Europe with that nose when he was 20...... y'know. Sheesh. Please don't disrespect the deceased...

It's Olivia de Havilland. NOT Olivia De Havilland. And no, she's not going anywhere in the next few years to come... I voted for Al Molinaro (though I have some doubts about it really being him in the new photo found by Wildstorm). Blame The Unknown Man, I cut and paste from the names above Don't Hate The Player Hate The Game :-) Now that I look at old editions of the DL, it seems like the admin team has misspelt her name for the last 10 years. Should I point it out to them via a reprimanding PM, perhaps? Here's a genealogy page for the Haviland ancestry. ”De” shouldn’t be capitalized in the same way that Frank de Boer isn’t. http://havilands.org/
