List of oldest living people

Page semi-protected
From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

This is a list of the oldest living people who have been verified to be alive as of the dates of the cited supporting sources. It was estimated in 2015 that between 150 and 600 living people had reached the age of 110.[1] The true number is uncertain, as not all supercentenarians are known to researchers at a given time, and some claims cannot be validated or are fraudulent.[1]

  • Tomiko Itooka (born 23 May 1908) of Japan is the world's oldest living person whose age has been validated.[2]
  • João Marinho Neto (born 5 October 1912) of Brazil is the world's oldest living man whose age has been validated.[2]
