A 157 year-old woman is just as fanciful as the "pretty good trend" you think exists in the American employment numbers.

Very convenient that she burned her identifying documents back in 1965. You'd think a supposedly 112 year old woman wouldn't give a **** at that point in her life.

Good one Ozzy.

Serb posted about some allegedly ancient russian peasant recently.

All BS stories of course.

It reminds me a relatively lame joke, set in USSR.

The reporters found out about a 150 year old peasant lady, and rushed to interview her. They asked her to tell them about the secret of her long age. She replied "well, during the revolution..."
they interrupted her: "no, no, we don't want to talk about the revolution. tell us about your youth!"
she continued "well, during the revolution..."
they interrupted her again: "we all know about the revolution, grandma. Tell us about the days of Nicolas II, Alexandre II, the Crimean war!"
the old lady got angry: "let me finish! during the revolution, there was such a mess that they added me 60 years in my papers!"

Populations get cut down dramatically from 80 to 90, then again from 90 to 100, then again from 100 to 110. (There are only three surviving World War I veterans today.) Then the population gets cut down dramatically once again from 110 to 120; specifically, only two known people have ever lived to that age. The oldest living person now is only 114.

From 120 to 130, from 130 to 140, and then from 140 to 150, and then from 150 to 157? It would be one of the most improbable events in human medical history.

Or it would just show your model is wrong.
