Thirteen days later Dina Manfredini passed away. She was the new oldest person in the world.
So the current title belongs to Jiroemon Kimura. And if he continues living for nine more days he will break the world record for the oldest man to ever live (documented reviewed confirmed and verified).
But if something should happen before then and he is unable to break the record, it would mark the third time in one month that the world's oldest person dies... an occurence unprecedented in history unless you believe the story of Noah's flood...
Which makes me wonder if the Mayans weren't just poking fun at us because of Snooki having a baby and Twinkies going out of business (but not before Snooki had her share)... maybe there really is something going on.
Meanwhile according to BureauOfAgeStatistics.Com I am currently ranked exactly 3 billionth on the oldest people in the world list... I'll be watching these numbers closely in the next few days.
