Weebl 216 Posted September 16, 2016 Just checked in with our 'non-evil twins' over at The 110 Club, Emma Moreno does look pretty good for 116 I mean the fact that she can sit upright is a surprise. That guy is clearly a gerontophile!By looks of it Emma isn`t complaining though! Obviously. Pretty amazing though, she's the last human being on planet Earth to have been born before the year 1900. Literally the last! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

The bloke said the secret of their longevity is that they've managed to thinking divorce was the only option on the same day. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Ulitzer95 12,654 Posted October 15, 2016 Turns out the anonymous male who was Britain's oldest man was Harold Bracher (b. 1904). Anyway, he died back in April aged 111.See: http://z3.invisionfree.com/The_110_Club/index.php?showtopic=17113His successor, Frank Simes (b. 1905) died last month, also aged 111.See: http://z3.invisionfree.com/The_110_Club/ar/t17061.htmUK's new oldest man is John Mansfield (b. 1907), who turns 109 in December. 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
time 8,618 Posted October 18, 2016 So who is Britain's oldest woman now? According to Wiki it is Vera Pigott but Bess Camm is almost a year older than her but not yet verified. Vera is out of the equation, having died aged 111. According to the report, she wasn't even the oldest woman in Kent (Alice Ducat, 61 days older). 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Weebl 216 Posted October 30, 2016 If Emma Morano is still alive at the end of the year (basically two months from now), she will have overtaken Misao Okawa to be the 5th verified living person of all time. Pretty special. But it hasn't yet happened and in my view people aged 110+ can die suddenly at any time without warning! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Pretty special. But it hasn't yet happened and in my view people aged 110+ can die suddenly at any time without warning! Looking at Wikipedia's list of all-time oldest people, it seems like there was a lot of them in the 1990s (especially during the end, with 3 out of the current top 5 dying between 1997 and 1999), and now there's again a surge. I wonder why there seems to be less of them in the 2000s. 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

I wonder why there seems to be less of them in the 2000s. My guess would be the group who were aged 110+ in the late 1990s were too old to have fought in WW1; the group who are 110+ now are too young to have fought in WW1. Hence why there were fewer 110+ in the 2000s - they were the WW1 generation. That might explain the men, not sure about the women. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
