  • That would be me in 2112-wow

  • @flaboi2go it's actually more like 80 years old

  • I read she could remember Van Gogh coming in her fathers artists shop when she was 14 in 1889 She said he stunk of drink and was very bad tempered

  • Imagine how it'd be if your children die before you and even your grand-children, that could've happened to her...

  • @AgaMbadi, lol......you're absolutely right. I can't imagine being that age though. There is no one alive who was around at the time you were born. In fact, everyone you know could be old enough to be your children or even grandchildren. People who looked very young in the late 70's-early 80's look aged now............Jeanne Calment was past 100 at that time, wow!!!! She probably wouldn't look any older if she were to be alive today. I think she stopped aging back in the 1960's.

  • I think to live too long like her must be quite sad, because a lot people, relatives,friends, people from her generation and etc...will pass out and you remain...can you figure out how sad it is?completely alone.

    Sad but awesome....

  • 120 god damn

    thats being 60 years old, which is pretty old, for half your life. i dont want to live past 80

  • @popupwool2 they do not, it's a myth :-)

  • If she was born in 1887 she would die now. If she was born now, she would die in 2132

  • Ive recently read the biography of Harry Patch. He had this to say about longevity: All your friends you grew up with are dead. Even those of the generation beneath you are dying out. But the worst thing is the constant tiredness; as if life itself is a wearying task, and that to die is to (at that age) go to a well earned sleep.
