If a 10000 of TikToks are to be believed , a person has supposedly aged most 200 twelvemonth over the course of just a few days .
telecasting of Buddhist Thelonious Sphere Monk Luang Pho Ya have been shared across the website in late weeks . Videos taken by the monastic ’s granddaughter , whoregularly uploads videos of the monk from Thailand , get down circulate with captions supposedly asserting his age .
The first labeled him as109 years quondam , while others put him at 169 years onetime – which is quite impressive over the course of instruction of just a few Earth days .
Before long , there were several viral picture out there claiming that he was 399 years erstwhile , and also a woman . Within a week he had more than doubled the longest known human life-time , and then some .
The call that he was strike hard around in the 1600s , live through the climb and fall of several empires , several world war , and then melt into abstruseness before popping up on TikTok is , of course , unlikely enough to require extraordinary evidence . Of which there is none .
The oldest living man as confirmed by theGuinness World Book of Recordsis Kane Tanaka from Fukuoka , Japan . Tanaka is currently 119 year old .
The oldest man on criminal record are Jeanne Clement , who lived until the long time of 122 . The old man , Jiroemon Kimura , die at 116 . Beating this age by several hundred age would be quite the feat .
To complicate this further , Jeanne Clement ’s claim to the claim of oldest man has beendisputed by mathematician and historians alike .
Clement , who arrogate to have converge Vincent van Gogh was 12 or 13 , underwent aseries of cognitive tests , the results of which were “ comparable to that of persons with the same level of Department of Education in their eighties and ninety ” .
Neatly , this was the age of Jeanne Clement ’s daughter would have been , had she not exit . pair off this with contradictions in her interview , changes in her oculus colour , and a tendency to confuse her husband with her sire in interview , it led some to advise in a studypublished on Research Gatethat " Jeanne had something to hide " .
They argue that the real Jeanne break in 1934 and her daughter accept on the role so as to deflect inheritance tax . Whether this is the type is still up for debate , with others pointing out she could recall data – such as the names of her teacher of mathematics – that only the real Jeanne would know .
In the case of Luang Pho Ya , however , things are much more clear - cut . He is 109 , and several masses on the Internet , for intellect best known to them , tot up an additional 290 year to her already impressive lifespan .
