arghton 6,731 Posted May 15, 2021 As a few years ago there was a lot of discussion about the last subjects of Queen Victoria, another site had a list of the last subjects of Edward VII.

Donald 182 Posted May 25, 2021 Jeanne Bot at 116 years and 130 days was by far the oldest 4th oldest living person ever. Previous recordholder was Chiyo Miyako (115 years and 348 days and 4th oldest living person on 15 April 2017 before Morano's death). 3 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

I do think we'll have at least one 118 or even 119 year old in the 2020's, but it feels very unlikely Kane Tanaka will be the one to break that barrier again. You can really tell she lost a lot of her energy and freedom of movement these past few months. She just looks really good to us in comparison to the two previous Japanese record holders, who were both extremely frail and it's a wonder they got as far as they did. But once a supercentenarian starts deteriorating, even a strong one like her... Now Kane Tanaka is more than a year older than Emma Morano. 2 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Her relatives occasionally post about her on FB but FB isn’t an acceptable source for Wiki. We’ll know when she dies I imagine. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

The oldest person in Britain supposedly died on June 6th, and the only media outlet that reports it for almost two weeks is a Dorset radio station? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Ulitzer95 12,596 Posted June 20, 2021 No mistake. Confirmed via the guy who tracks the oldest Brits. Site also confirms that Kingston is now the oldest. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
