List of oldest living people

From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

This is an old revision of this page, as edited by 115.193.10.205 (talk) at 02:59, 23 December 2015 (Yoshiyo Bessho validated). The present address (URL) is a permanent link to this revision, which may differ significantly from the current revision.

This is a partial list of the validated oldest living people in the world, according to the Gerontology Research Group.[1] All the people included in this list are supercentenarians (at least 110 years old) who have been verified to be alive at some point within the last year.[1]

The true number of living supercentenarians has been estimated at 150[2] and 600.[3] The actual number of living supercentenarians is uncertain because not all supercentenarians are known to researchers and also because some supercententarian claims are unproven.[2]

On 17 June 2015, American woman Susannah Mushatt Jones who is 124 years, 355 days[4] became the world's oldest living person.
