This is a list of tables of the oldest people in the world in ordinal ranks. To avoid including false or unconfirmed claims of extreme old age, names here are restricted to supercentenarian (aged over 110 years old) whose age has been validated by an international body that specifically deals in longevity research, such as the Gerontology Research Group (GRG) or Guinness World Records (GWR), or people who are otherwise notable enough for a Wikipedia article whose birthdate is otherwise well established.

The longest unambiguously documented human lifespan is that of Jeanne Calment of France (1875–1997), who lived to the age of 122 years, 164 days. She met Vincent van Gogh when she was 12 or 13.[1] She received news media attention in 1985, after turning 110. Subsequent investigation found documentation for Calment's age, beyond any reasonable question, in the records of her native city, Arles, France.[2] More evidence of Calment's lifespan has been produced than for any other supercentenarian; her case serves as an archetype in the methodology for verifying the ages of the world's oldest people.[3]

As women live longer than men on average, combined records for both sexes are dominated by women. The longest undisputed lifespan for a man is that of Jiroemon Kimura of Japan (1897–2013), who died at age 116 years, 54 days.

Since the death of 116-year-old Jeralean Talley of the United States on 17 June 2015, Susannah Mushatt Jones, also of the United States, born 6 July 1899, is the oldest living person in the world whose age has been documented.

Chronological list of the oldest living person since 1955

This list is copied from the Gerontology Research Group's list of the World's Oldest Person Titleholders.[28] Since most of the time the oldest living person is a female, a sequence of oldest females would be nearly redundant to this list. A sequence of oldest living men follows this sequence.
