Lafaucheuse 4,029 Posted July 25 don't know if this has been posted yet but I can't find it, so here is a picture of Marita Camacho Quiros back in march of this year. Looks pretty good I'd say ! She does remind me of a younger Maria Branyas Morera 3 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Rashid Karimov is stil alive, and also Carlos Julio Rincon Garzon, though he seemed debunked for good. Of course you can not get a clean sheet here. There will always be some dickhead around the world who claims to be older than him. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Of course you can not get a clean sheet here. There will always be some dickhead around the world who claims to be older than him. Well the latter is debunked as you said. The former is from Tajikistan, where you’re never going to be able to validate with reliable records, so I’m going with “no” as the answer to my own question as it’s not plausible that either of those 2 will take the title. I see LongeviQuest have an anonymous male listed as 2nd oldest. More interested to know who that is. 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

The GRG isn't a reliable organisation and I wish people would stop treating them as such. We should wait until LQ validates him. 2 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
