Within a week 2 of the Belgian top 3 died

Fernande Courtoy is now the last remaining Belgian born before 1915

Surely this guy, Samwel Nthigai Mburia, is not actually 117.

Spoiler

 

Only 2-4 men from 1909 and the 1900s living now. Barbosa seems to be a claimant? and probably dead. A year ago there were 14.

Saturnino dl Fuente Garcia declined pretty fastly during his year, but that's usually the way it goes.

 

 

The class of 1910 men is still strong, but we'll see how many are still alive in 2023, here are the (known) ones remaining from 1909 and 1910. Still a lot of people blocking some Indian news sites from calling Fauja Singh the "world's oldest man":

Pictures of some below their name. Now also with the 1911 cohort.

 

Vicente Ramon Perez Uzcategui (14 August 1907?-19 January 2022) Claimant from Venezuela. Died at 114? Young was curious about his case.

Juan Vicente Perez Mora (27 May 1909-) Oldest documented person from Venezuela. I won't say that he's in good condition because he'll probably die tomorrow if I do.

You know, they're already calling me the next Jiroemon Kimura at 110club...

Geraldo de Jesus (2 August 1909-9 February 2022) Bedridden but lucid in October 2021. Died in February 2022.

Delio Venturotti (25 October 1909-1 June 2022) See Perez Mora.

Eusebio Quintero Lopez (6 Mar 1910-16 July 2023) Oldest documented man from Colombia. Could still talk and stand in January 2021.

Efrain Antonio Rios Garcia (4 April 1910-) Also from Colombia.

Stanislaw Kowalski (14 April 1910-5 April 2022) Our favourite ancient runner.

Mikizo Ueda (11 May 1910-9 September 2022) Witnessed the Hiroshima bombing, seems like a great guy.

Victor Chanca Santos aka. Don Cumpita (14 June 1910-9 November 2022) Wheelchair-bound on his 110th. Oldest man in Peru ever if he's alive.

Tao Ruisheng (16 July 1910-2022) Fall in 2018, seems to be bedbound and frail now. Lives at home.

Chen Zhongbo (18 August 1910-2022) Wheelchair-bound. Apparently had a surgery at 97 but his family didn't tell him what his illness was.

Ja Hyung Lee (27 August 1910-12 February 2022) South Korea-Canada. Could still walk with a walker in September. One of the oldest people in Canada.

Andre Boite (6 December 1910-15 July 2022) Oldest man in France, WWII POW. In a wheelchair.

Yang Longsheng (13 December 1910-2023) If there's someone whose health you can call "tragic", it's this guy. He's the male variant of the supercentenarians like Kura Bingo, Fusa Tatsumi etc, he's been bedbound and ultrafrail for the last 4 years. But still lucid. Actually he's in pretty decent health currently.

Ezra Hill (19 December 1910-4 October 2022) Oldest US man after Brooks died.

Shigeru Nakamura (11 January 1911-15 November 2022) Japan, wheelchairbound.

Shen Guangyuan (18 January 1911-2022) China. "Leading educator" in Chongming district.

Hilario Vasconcelos (6 March 1911-28 June 2022) Brazil, worked at rubber plantations during WWII.

Shiro Moriyama (6 March 1911-19 March 2022) Japan, in decent condition.

Francisco Juarez Iglesias (7 May 1911-25 October 2022) Mexico. Could stand without aid at 109.

Virgilio Medeiros (2 July 1911-26 November 2022) Brazil.

Anonymous of Ireland (2 July 1911-ca. July 2022) Ireland, first Irish man to reach 110 and excluding emigrants, the fourth-oldest Irish person ever.

Santos Rivas (17 August 1911-17 April 2023) El Salvador.

Giles Cropsey (4 September 1911-14 September 2022) US, California. Has "beginning dementia"

Abilio Borges Moreira (9 September 1911-) 2023 new addition.

Saburo Sueto (12 September 1911-OTR ca. November 2021) Japan.

Josias de Oliveira (21 October 1911-) Brazil.

Gisaburo Sonobe (6 November 1911-) Japan.

Valoy Ortiz (20 November 1911-18 March 2022) Uruguay, first Uruguayan man to reach 110.

Reuben Sinclair (5 December 1911-28 August 2023) Canada, oldest Canadian-born man.

 

Likely claimants, some could be dead already:

Rufino Roadel (10 April 1907?-OTR 2020/2021?) Philippines, frail years ago.

Jose Flores Flores (11 July 1907?-) Costa Rica. Remove 20-25 years and you'll get a more likely age, no way he'll ever get validated. Seems like his actual birthyear was 1927.

Joao Moreira Gomes (15 December 1907?-OTR c. 18 August 2021) Brazil.

Mykolo Kyguolio (September 1908?-In limbo since June 2021, dead) Lithuania, very frail, nearly deaf and bedbound for years. Family claims he was born in 1919, passport says 1908. Dead as he was no longer reported the oldest man in Lithuania.

Zhang Deshan (1908/1909?-limbo since 2022, DEAD) China-Taiwan, remove around 10 years. A man born 1913 was mentioned the oldest in Taiwan in 2023 which means he's dead.

Modesto Lopez Bautista (17 January 1909?-22 January 2023) Mexican-American. Again, remove around 20 years. Wheelchairbound.

Pauline Boulangger Mogollon (17 August 1909?-6 December 2021) Claims to be 119, I don't know if he's "even" 112. Frail, died off-radar

Seliman Bandang (21 March 1910?-19 August 2023) "Verified" by some bs "Malaysian book of records", judging on how he looks probably younger than PM Mahathir M. However he's also now wheelchairbound.

Lorenzo Cayunao Millan (15 May 1910-) Possibly the oldest man in Chile. Moved here Aug 2023.

Otilio Dominguez Santos (15 June 1910-) Wheelchair-bound in December. Moved here Aug 2023.

Pedro Antonio "Pe Pipi" Rodrigues (12 December 1910?/1925-Limbo since 2022) Cape Verde.

Carlos Julio Rincon Garzon (24 December 1910/1915?-) Also Colombian. Orphan, lived a nomadic lifestyle and played music for people while travelling. Could still stand in March 2021. As of 2022 considered to be a potential fraudster like Zouein and probably born 1915. Moved here Aug 2023.

Francis Zouein (1 January 1911-) Lebanon-US. Young doesn't think he's 111. Moved here Aug 2023.

John Wafula Ogwero (28 February 1911?-limbo for 2+ years, probably dead) Uganda. Out of these probably the most likely to be what he claims he is, however I seriously doubt he could ever get validated.

Fauja Singh (1 April 1911?-) India-UK. Most famous out of these but everything about him screams that he's atleast 10 years younger. Likely born ca. 1928. Very frail.

Goncalino Norberto (8 August 1911-) Brazil, in decent condition. Seems his more likely birthdate is 1921.

Alphonse Rubunda (21 August 1911?-December 2021 or January 2022) Republic of the Congo-Finland. Again, tiny chance he could be his age but will never get validated due to the lack of records. Frail. Died in January 2021/December 2022.

 

 

Extreme longevity "claimants" (fakers):

Billafunda (Siddha) Sayadaw U.Kowida ("906"/"968"-DEAD) Burmese, most extreme modern longevity myth where the person actually exists. I doubt we'll ever know when he/the person who impersonates this guy for photos "dies", the impostor of him is likely already dead too.

Swami Sivananda ("8 August 1896"-) Indian guru. Probably really around 85. Clearly a claimant, but has grown very frail.

Manuel Garcia Hernandez ("24 December 1896"-) Mexico, probably really around 90. Frail and widowed in 2010, old claim promoted by Daily Mail in 2018. In limbo currently but I expect his death to be reported when he dies.

Sebastiao Batista dos Santos ("15 March 1902"-) Brazil, his age is complete bullshit and he's probably around 80 or less.

Jesus Elias Loaiza Arenas ("22 February 1905"/13 September 1920-) Colombia, apparently using the birth record of his older brother and really "only" 101. Frailish, on the radar of 110club users since 2015.

Do you think that one day she will be successor of Maria Branyas? or will it be someone else?

I have no clue 
God knows how long she’ll last 

Actually God probably forgot about her, it’s the only possible explanation

Italian Fusa turns 112

 

Ines Sommovigo (Nov 1911) = Italian Fusa

Piedad Loriente Perez (Sep 1911) = Spanish Fusa

Lets see if any of them make it to 113

Katie Hatton (1877-1992) was validated by Longeviquest to have lived 114 years and 37 days. She was the first person in Texas to reach the ages of 112,113 and 114.

This age represents the youngest age that can be definitively proven, but she could be older.

There are now 200 validated 114-year-olds.

Continuing Arghton's List:

 

Only one validated man remains from 1909, 1910, and 1911, but the amount of documented men from 1911 is still quite a bit. Most of them appear to be in good shape. Here is a full, in depth list of the last known men remaining from before 1912:

 

Validated Men:
Juan Vicente Pérez Mora (27 May 1909) health has been stable for years. He doesn't even take daily medications! His personal physician said that at the time of his 113th birthday, he could easily live many more years.

Efrain Antonio Rios Garcia (04 April 1910) increasingly frail over the last 2 years.

Gisaburo Sonobe (06 November 1911) not enough information, although apparently he can still walk and has most of his original teeth.

 

Documented Men:
Otilio Dominguez Santos (15 June 1910) increasingly frail and wheelchair-bound. According to his great granddaughter, he has no health issues. 

Francis Zouein (01 January 1911) suspicious birthdate, but apparently he has good documentation. Could still dance unaided as recently as May.

Abilio Borges Moreira (09 September 1911) unknown. Confirmed alive privately for his 112th birthday. 

Josias de Oliveira (21 October 1911) could still walk with a cane on his 112th birthday last month. Described by family as "robust".

 

Undocumented/Claimaints:
Samwel Mburia (1906) no way this guy's 117. His actual birthdate is not even known. Looks about 90 to me. Wheelchair-bound. 

Jose Flores Flores (11 July 1907) red flags. Possible identity switch early in life, but this is only speculation. More frail in recent years, but could still walk unaided on his 115th birthday in July 2022. I doubt he's 116, but he's the oldest man I wouldn't rule out. 

Elias Chavez Alvarez (08 November 1908) very frail. Could move from his wheelchair to his bed on his 114th birthday with the aid of a bar, but that was the limit of his mobility. ID card from 1994 supports 1908 birthdate. 

Santos Cruz Flores (01 November 1909) frail. Could still walk unaided at the time of his 114th birthday. Documentation actually does exist that supports his claimed birthday, but we have to make sure it belongs to the same Santos alive today. According to his grandson, he is in pretty good health except for his eyesight which has begun to fail this past year.

Alvaro Jose de Souza (14 February 1910) considered "plausible" by professional researchers. Could still walk unaided for his 112th birthday in February 2022. Seems frail this past year.

Selvino Jesus de Oliveira (July 1910) looks way too young to be a supercentenarian. I'd say he is about 80-85. However, his case was researched by professionals and nothing against him has been found so far. But nothing supporting his case has come up either.

Pedro Antonio Rodrigues (12 December 1910) someone claimed he was actually born in 1925 but has not provided any proof. Looks oddly young and is oddly mobile for a supercentenarian. I'd believe the 1925 theory if said person produced actual evidence. 

Sebastian Catalan (20 January 1911) frail years ago. Milan Q doesn't think he's 112.
