diego 1,984 Posted May 28, 2023 Siu Kiu Chau died aged 111, he claimed to have been born on 8/Dec/1911 in Hong Kong and died in Wirral, Merseyside, England on 18th May 2023, with the alleged age of 111 years and 161 days. following complications, his health deteriorated and the retired grocer died at Arrowe Park Hospital. On April 21, 2023, Siu was admitted to Arrowe Park Hospital following an unwitness fall in his kitchen at his home address when he tripped and fell to forward. Siu suffered a fractured neck of the femur on the left side." Despite needing treatment, Chau was not suitable for general anesthesia due to his age and gave consent for spinal anesthesia. Postoperatively, however, he developed complications and died. If his age were true, he would be the oldest person born in Hong Kong, since the oldest man in the history of the country was Nicolau Kao Se Tseien, who died in 2007 at the age of 110 years 334 days, and also the oldest man living in England, as currently the holder of that position is John Tinniswood aged 110 years 275 days 'Homem mais velho de Wirral' morre aos 111 anos - Liverpool Echo 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

lay_kulast95 129 Posted May 29, 2023 My Opinion on unvalidated SCs: - Ese Gebelek, 128, claims to have 400 grandchildren??? That's not the only thing I doubt. Looks more like 88 rather than 128. Frail. - Swami Sivananda, 126, probably fake. Looks frail, but can still walk. He has had an incredibly healthy lifestyle, diet, and has lead a very fit lifestyle. I think there's a miniscule chance he's legit, but I highly doubt it. Unless he beat the 1 in a trillion odds, combined with a super healthy lifestyle... I doubt he's 126. - Manuel Garcia Hernandez, 126, fake. Looks 96, not 126. I'd be surprised if he's even 100. Frail, but mobile. - Marcelino Abad Tolentino, 123, fake. Documentary done on him at 119, and he could still do farm work. Probably 93. Small, but not frail. - Maria Gomes dos Reis, 122, if she was 116 I'd say her case was strong, but 122 is very hard to believe. Claims to have documentation, but I haven't seen anything yet. I'd say plausible, but very unlikely. Still, I wouldn't call her fake yet. - Andrelino Vieira da Silva, 122, more like 72. He's 122, but only if he's celebrating his birthday every 7 months. Probably mixed up with his grandfather. I'd be dumbfounded if this guy is even 100. Mobile. - Sebastiao Batista dos Santos, 121, he SOUNDS like he's the age claimed, but that'd where it ends. Probably more like 81 or 91 rather than 121. I doubt a 121 year old man could be that mobile. - Batuli Lamichhane, 120, Strongest case for someone over 118 on the gerontology fandom site. Has lots of documentation and a 1934 census record. She's the age claimed, I'd say. I talked to her great-grandson on Facebook. Has become very frail these past 3 or so years. - Zhang Meiyu, 117, likely fraudster. - Amelia Macoo, 117, also likely a fraudster. - Rosa Velandia, 116, I did some research on this case and I seemed to run into a lot of dead ends. Didn't find any evidence against her though. Should be investigated by professionals in my opinion. Might actually be 116. - Vicente Landaeta, 116, another Venezuelan claimaint??? This guy looks more like 76 than 116. I don't even think he's 95. Probably a fraudster. - Francisca Conceicao, 115, looks the age claimed. Not enough proof. However she could walk unassisted at 113, so I doubt she's the age claimed. Still possible though, as other SCs could walk unassisted at 113. Unlikely but possible. - Jose Flores Flores, 115, I've never seen any evidence against his case, but 115 almost 116 is very advanced for a male. Apparently, on 31st of December 2022 he was doing fine. I tried messaging his son on Facebook with no reply. - Anonymous Male, 115, considered "plausible" by several gerontologists. Need more documentation. Looks very frail. - Elias Chavez Alvarez, 114, the nursing home he lives at says he's 114, but his relatives claim he's only in his 90s. Has memories of the Mexican War from 1910-1920. I'm stumped on this case, especially since several sources cite that he has no family, but I think it's still an open investigation. Looks extremely frail. - Seliman Bandang, 113, Looks too young to be an SC, but you never know. Looks can be deceiving. Needs more proof, and real proof too, not some "Malaysian Book of Records". Can walk on his own, but uses a cane/wheelchair. - Otilio Dominguez Santos, 112, I'd bet dimes to dollars he's 112. Tons of documentation, but unfortunately not enough to meet standards. Talked to his great granddaughter on Facebook and he is doing fine. Looks frail, but still seems healthy. Lots of life left in his eyes. Could be the next Jiroemon Kimura if he gets validated. - Lorenzo Cayunao Millan, 112, keeps changing his birthdate. First it was May 15th, now June 17th. Considering the dates of birth of his older brother and younger sister, there's no way he could've been born when he claims he was. More likely 102, and not 112. Doesn't appear to have signs of extreme aging. - Carlos Julio Rincon Garzon, 112, researchers found he was more likely born in 1915 and not 1910. Looks strong still. Who do you think of this list is the most likely to be true? I'd have to go with Otilio Dominguez Santos, first, followed by Batuli Lamichhane, Jose Flores Flores, Rosa Velandia, and the Anonymous man from Brazil. I highly doubt any of the others are the age claimed. Maria Gomes dos Reis and Seliman Bandang have a slight chance, but nowhere near the 5 that I mentioned above. Just my thoughts.

Parece mais com 88 do que com 128. Frágil. - Swami Sivananda, 126, provavelmente falso. Parece frágil, mas ainda pode andar. Ele teve um estilo de vida incrivelmente saudável, dieta e levou um estilo de vida muito em forma. Acho que há uma chance minúscula de ele ser legítimo, mas duvido muito. A menos que ele supere as chances de 1 em um trilhão, combinado com um estilo de vida super saudável... Duvido que ele tenha 126 anos. - Manuel Garcia Hernandez, 126, falso. Parece ter 96, não 126. Ficaria surpreso se ele tivesse 100. Frágil, mas móvel. - Marcelino Abad Tolentino, 123, falso. Documentário feito sobre ele aos 119 anos, e ele ainda poderia trabalhar na fazenda. Provavelmente 93. Pequeno, mas não frágil. - Maria Gomes dos Reis, 122, se ela tivesse 116 eu diria que o caso dela era forte, mas 122 é muito difícil de acreditar. Afirma ter documentação, mas ainda não vi nada. Eu diria plausível, mas muito improvável. Ainda assim, eu não a chamaria de falsa ainda. - Andrelino Vieira da Silva, 122, mais para 72. Tem 122, mas só se fizer aniversário a cada 7 meses. Provavelmente confundido com o avô. Eu ficaria estupefato se esse cara tivesse 100 anos. Celular. - Sebastião Batista dos Santos, 121, PARECE ter a idade reivindicada, mas é aí que termina. Provavelmente mais como 81 ou 91 em vez de 121. Duvido que um homem de 121 anos pudesse ser tão móvel. - Batuli Lamichhane, 120, Caso mais forte para alguém com mais de 118 anos no site de fãs de gerontologia. Tem muita documentação e um registro do censo de 1934. Ela tem a idade reivindicada, eu diria. Conversei com o bisneto dela no Facebook. Tornou-se muito frágil nos últimos 3 anos ou mais. - Zhang Meiyu, 117, provável fraudador. - Amelia Macoo, 117, também provavelmente uma fraudadora. - Rosa Velandia, 116 anos, fiz algumas pesquisas sobre este caso e parece que me deparei com muitos becos sem saída. Mas não encontrei nenhuma evidência contra ela. Deve ser investigado por profissionais na minha opinião. Na verdade, pode ser 116. - Vicente Landaeta, 116, outro reclamante venezuelano??? Esse cara parece mais ter 76 do que 116. Acho que ele nem tem 95. Provavelmente um fraudador. - Francisca Conceição, 115 anos, aparenta a idade declarada. Não há provas suficientes. No entanto, ela poderia andar sem ajuda aos 113 anos, então duvido que ela tenha a idade reivindicada. Ainda é possível, pois outros SCs podem andar sem ajuda em 113. Improvável, mas possível. - José Flores Flores, 115 anos, nunca vi nenhuma prova contra o caso dele, mas 115 quase 116 é muito avançado para um homem. Aparentemente, em 31 de dezembro de 2022, ele estava bem. Tentei enviar uma mensagem para seu filho no Facebook sem resposta. - Anônimo Masculino, 115 anos, considerado "plausível" por vários gerontologistas. Precisa de mais documentação. Parece muito frágil. - Elias Chavez Alvarez, 114, a casa de repouso em que mora diz que ele tem 114 anos, mas seus parentes afirmam que ele tem apenas 90 anos. Tem memórias da Guerra do México de 1910-1920. Estou perplexo com este caso, especialmente porque várias fontes citam que ele não tem família, mas acho que ainda é uma investigação aberta. Parece extremamente frágil. - Seliman Bandang, 113 anos, parece muito jovem para ser um SC, mas nunca se sabe. As aparências podem enganar. Precisa de mais provas, e provas reais também, não algum "Livro de Recordes da Malásia". Consegue andar sozinho, mas usa bengala/cadeira de rodas. - Otilio Dominguez Santos, 112 anos, aposto que tem 112. Toneladas de documentação, mas infelizmente não o suficiente para atender aos padrões. Conversei com a bisneta no Facebook e ele está bem. Parece frágil, mas ainda parece saudável. Muita vida restava em seus olhos. Pode ser o próximo Jiroemon Kimura se for validado. - Lorenzo Cayunao Millan, 112 anos, vive mudando sua data de nascimento. Primeiro foi 15 de maio, agora 17 de junho. Considerando as datas de nascimento de seu irmão mais velho e irmã mais nova, não há como ele ter nascido quando afirma que nasceu. Mais provavelmente 102, e não 112. Não parece ter sinais de envelhecimento extremo. - Carlos Julio Rincon Garzon, 112, os pesquisadores descobriram que ele provavelmente nasceu em 1915 e não em 1910. Parece forte ainda. Quem você acha desta lista é o mais provável de ser verdade? Eu teria que ir com Otilio Dominguez Santos, primeiro, seguido por Batuli Lamichhane, José Flores Flores, Rosa Velandia e o homem do Anonymous do Brasil. Duvido muito que qualquer um dos outros tenha a idade reivindicada. Maria Gomes dos Reis e Seliman Bandang têm uma pequena chance, mas longe das 5 que mencionei acima. Apenas meus pensamentos. Vamos ouvir o seu... Thank you very much for the post, I am very interested in this area, and I think it is a shame that there are fraudsters who want to inflate their age just to confuse people or want to show off, I agree that Otilio and Jose Flores seem to have their age claimed, yes, I would really appreciate it that it would be easier to get evidence for the dates of birth of these people 2 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

lay_kulast95 129 Posted May 29, 2023 Just wanted to share with you all, an interesting thought I had. If you go back and look at a chronological list of the oldest person ever recorded, you will see that Mr. Geert Adriaans Boomgaard was the first person to make it to 110. Since then, most of the titleholders have been women, and no one has even come close to challenging the record since Jeanne Calment. It's been nearly 26 years and no new titleholders. If a man were to break the record today, as Boomgaard did when he turned 110 back in 1898, this man would be the first man to reach the ages of 117, 118, 119, 120, 121, and 122. An incredible achievement that I don't even have words for. I want to know what you think. Will some future man break Calment's record, and we will once again have a male titleholder as the oldest person ever recorded? Will we ever even see another man in the top 10 oldest ever? 2 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
diego 1,984 Posted May 29, 2023 Anything is possible, but it will take a long time for this to happen. 122 years is a very impressive age indeed, Perez Mora if he continues as he demonstrates, still active and very happy, he has everything to live for a long time, but at this age things change quickly, let's go see if he can 24 minutes ago, lay_kulast95 said: Just wanted to share with you all, an interesting thought I had.

Especially since most of the food we eat nowadays has "Bioengineered Food Ingredients". I think the only way we'll surpass Calment's age is through some miraculous scientific breakthrough. May not happen till like the year 2300 though. Earliest I'd say is like 2080, but I think it will happen. Unfortunately not soon. 1 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
