Not Deathers 11 Posted December 12, 2020 I'm sorry but it genuinely amazes me he's (reportedly) still alive. He'll be 100 in June for cripes sake. Nobody who smoked for as many years as him should live that long. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

He’ll overtake the 8th Duke of Wellington who died on 31st December 2014 aged 99 years, 5 months, 29 days. 3 days late to the party but he did it. Prince Philip became the oldest Duke ever on Thursday. 3 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

So in the past few days, the Queen has become the 7th oldest ruling state leader in history (as per her thread) while the Duke has become the oldest living Duke ever. Bet they're partying hard.

Youth in Asia 1,086 Posted December 14, 2020 I need to make a new thread for people who die within 6 months of receiving the vaccine. Phil would be top pick. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Tower1 93 Posted December 14, 2020 He once said that he wanted to be reincarnated as a deadly virus. Isn't it ironic that he will be among the first to receive vaccine for this not so deadly virus? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Should call it "El Chino" like Sir Creep, for the discontinuity in its results... Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

The post I replied to is my source for Prince Philip becoming the oldest living Duke ever (so take it up with @Ulitzer95) and if you looked at QE2's thread (as I referenced in my original post) you'll find a suggestion she'd become the 7th oldest ruling state leader in history.

Ulitzer95 12,585 Posted January 1, 2021 A good pick. He has potential. I think we’ll see him celebrate his 100th, but potentially drop off not long after. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

The problem with him is he genuinely doesn't seem to give a fuck if he lives to 100 or not. He presumably gets a card from his wife every year anyway... 1 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

That’s why I think he may go sometime after June. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
