Puma85 30 Posted April 20, 2023 I can see Trump and Obama quite easily becoming nonagenarians but reaching Jimmy's age would be very difficult. 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Also his maternal grandmother lived to 96.Also his mother was 88 which was pretty impressive considering she almost got killed after being mugged at 79 causing a brain haemorrhage and permanent damage.

Obama's smoking makes me HEAVILY doubtful. Didn't he smoke a pack a day for a bit? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Perhaps 1,482 Posted April 29, 2023 Since he’s been in hospice, Jimmy has outlived Betty Boothroyd, Paul O’Grady, Nigel Lawson, Mary Quant, Barry Humphries, Harry Belafonte, Len Goodman, Jerry Springer, a member of The Script, a handful of gay pornstars and the bloke from S Club 7. Long may he reign! 6 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

At this point I feel like he'll outlive a few more. 10 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Reveal hidden contents I never buy the not inhaling argument for regular smokers as surely that`s how they got chemically addicted. Even if hypothetically you didn`t inhale from the cigarette it would still pollute the air and be even worse than passive smoking due to how near it is to you. I thought Jeanne Calment quit smoking when she was 117 or thereabouts. 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

On the other hand, Trump has been a teetotal and doesn’t smoke since he was 30, because (or thanks) to his brother premature death due to alcoholism, so he might be nonagerian despite his junk food habit Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

I dont doubt theres a chance he could live up to his 90s, like his dad did, but I personally dont think its likely. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
