individuals who surpassed other individuals born before them.

[John "요한" Sulu 372]

There have been certain cases when the second individual got to surpass the first individual in terms of their lifespan.

For example:

Norman Lear surpassed Betty White and Prince Philip.

Dick Van Dyke surpassed Angela Lansbury.

Mel Brooks surpassed Queen Elizabeth II.

Harry Belafonte and Doc Severinsen surpassed Sidney Poitier, Lauro Cavazos, and June Brown.

Bob Newhart surpassed Liz Sheridan as well as Christopher Lee.

Berry Gordy Jr surpassed Ed Asner.

William Shatner surpassed Christopher Plummer and Mikhail Gorbachev.

Piper Laurie surpassed Monica Vitti, Mwai Kibaki, Norman Mineta, Dervla Murphy, and Philip Baker Hall.

Yoko Ono, Quincy Jones, Michael Caine, Carol Burnett, and Willie Nelson all surpassed Nichelle Nichols.

One thing we must remember is that not everyone makes it to 100 posts or has more than 100 posts before being banned.

I am as guilty as anyone about making spurious lists but I think what people are looking for is that the list have some specific point to them or that they introduce some new information.

 

I hope that helps
