Dr. Zorders 1,271 Posted May 2, 2014 does it really matter? all you need to know is they were the oldest person in the country.but if you must know they were about the 80th oldest person in the world.they don't live long in Poland Yeah actually it does, dipshit, because the whole point of world's oldest people is that we all go "wow" at the number of years that they've lived. You wouldn't see a 110 year old person trying to get media attention for being really old but saying to the media people "Er, it doesn't matter how old I am actually." Prick! 2 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Dr. Zorders 1,271 Posted May 2, 2014 It'd depend how dark it was and who could see. If it was daylight then yes I'd have to settle for calling you a prick. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Whoever wrote that article is very bad at maths: "Born December 20, 1897, Filomena Taipe Mendoza is only three months younger than Japanese Misao Okawa, who is the world's oldest person according to Guinness World Records and the US-based Gerontology Research Group."

Guest Guest Posted May 4, 2014 So that increases the no of people born in the 1900s to 6 and the no born in the Victorian era to 16. It really should be going in the opposite direction ! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

No it doesn't. The Peruvian woman, likes hundreds of others, is just a claimant. She hasn't been verified. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

She hasn't been verified. well let's just hope that if she is ever verified that 1 or 2 from the oldest 15 will have gone.It's soul destroying when you wait months for someone to drop off and the list only grows bigger Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

maryportfuncity 10,646 Posted May 19, 2014 Given that the oldest man in Britain has chosen to remain anonymous (he's 109) will his death actually be reported? Probably, and he can't sue them for naming him once he's dead. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Guest Enter your name Posted June 2, 2014 He's definately not 112.That would make him the oldest man in the world,and that is currently Alex Imich who is only 111 Bernando Lapallo says he was born in 1901. The 1930 and 1940 census says he was born in 1908. The 2006 listing says he was born in 1909. The US public records says he was born in 1910. Take your pick. He's selling longevity products so all the more reason to inflate his age. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
