Crazy thing is that these are the oldest people that we know of

Sometimes we dont know how old some people are in developing countries and there are unverifiable claims that there are some people older than any official record, like over 120

There was a mad old woman from Africa who claimed she was older than Churchill.

Dude, people in shitholes don't live forever, and the bible shows that old people in these places are willing to make up ridiculous ages.

I was going to say "Thanks for letting us know they're also from Japan, with the last name Tanaka." But then I realised I just read the first name like "Kain" instead of "Kah-neh". Haha.
