thats so sick! its crazy to think that people used to live like 40 years and now can get up to 100 plus years.

I wonder if he says yolo alot.....

Riley Harris · Veteran Member

It's really amazing that people can live that long. It's weird to think that that would be 97 years from now for most of us.

Its amazing to think how much history this man must have witinessed! The fact that he was born when the Spanish empire was still a thing is crazy. He also lived through both world wars. It would be very interesting to hear his take on all the historical events he has lived through.

I wonder if he is super bored and tired with life. Hopfully he isnt scared of death!!!!!!!!! D':

PostmanPat · Veteran Member

He's probably prepared for death by now.

SpaceNate · Veteran Member

Very interesting

Olga · Veteran Member

How cool to have lived more than a century and to have seen so much! I wish him a Happy Birthday (imagine how many birthday cakes he's had!)!!!

Kristen Lindner · Veteran Member

Think of all the stories he can tell. He probably has an amazing life story.

Mary Sanchez · Veteran Member

wow he's lived such a long life. Like kristen said he probably does have an amazing life story. It's amazing that some people are able to live so long, even past 100.

i would hate to live that long cause his wife and life long friends have probably already passed on and at age 114 there is not much you can do at such an old age

I agree with Kevin it reminds me of the movie 'The Green Mile'. I mean it's amazing and all and he probably has a bunch of cool stories but it would suck having to watch all those you love die and unless he's like crazy abnormally healthy not getting to do much seems really boring...

Is it really worth it to love that long if you cant even live life. Im pretty sure that if you live to 114, you are just sitting there in bed.. doesnt sopund like life to me. BUt its great that he keeps fighting to live and great how he is being recognize.

SassySmith · Veteran Member

Why would you want to live that long, there is way too much Bullspit in this world, i would rather die and be happy in heaven then live for 100+ years. ALSO i don't want to resemble her and her wrinkly self.

damaris_cgomez · Veteran Member

it'd be pretty awesome to live that long as long as i could still remember what my life was life and was able to interact with who ever still wants me around.
i wonder if he's a really cranky old man...

It would be interesting to be able to live that long but also very sad. Everything and everyone you have ever loved is most likely gone. That would be a pretty hallow life.
