179 year old man - GoFuckYourself.com

HollywoodRevenue · 11-16-2014, 08:06 PM

Vârânasî| A retired cobbler from northern India, Mahashta Mûrasi, claims he was born in January 1835, making him not only the oldest man on earth, but the oldest to have ever lived, according to the Guiness World Records.

According to indian officials, the man was born at home in the city of Bangalore on January 6th 1835, and is recorded to have lived in Vârânasî since 1903. He worked as a cobbler in the city until 1957, when he retired at the already venerable age of 122.

?I have been alive so long, that my great grand-children have been dead for years? explains Mr Mûrasi. ?Somehow death forgot about me? And now there?s hardly any hope left. Look at the statistics, nobody dies past 150, even less at 170. At that point, I guess I?m immortal or something. I might as well enjoy it!?

The man?s birth certificate and identity cards all seem to confirm his version, but unfortunately no medical examination can confirm his saying for now. The last doctor Mister Mûrasi visited died in 1971, so there is little information available about his previous medical files.

Just read it, but it has been said that it has been checked, both that and the fact that he is registered to have moved in 1903 to Varanasi.
I see your point in "seeing it" but honestly....you can´t apply that to every thing. I myself have never been to America, so I have never seen it, I have to assume that America is there as everyone says it is.I have to assume Plutonium exists, although I have never seen it. I have to assume the declaration of Indipendence (american document) exists, and If people have cheched both his documents and Varanasi 1903 registry I have to assume it´s true. I can´t be 100% sure, but if it´s not true, it´s not gonna change my life radically, I must admit.

But you´re missing my point : don´t be skeptical no matter what, that closes your mind.
In late 1800 the scientists declared that NOTHING heavier than air could fly...guess what...bummer. In 1903 they were proved wrong. Be open, we have a universe still to discover

WorldNewsDailyReport.com is the one reporting the `story`- and it`s much like The Onion...but without the humour.

No reputable news agencies are reporting the story.

.in the end my point is : it could be a hoax, but it´s not necessarily. A preassumption that whatever you read is right is as good as assuming that everything you read is wrong. Even if it sounds a bit absurd. The basic ground of science, is never deny anything until it´s proven wrong...or right. So, let´s take the scientific approach, and say that however unlikely, it´s not impossible. Progeria is a sickness (scientificly demonstrated and acknowledged) that leads to a very fast aging process (a 15 yeard old person can look as a 45 year old). If the genes can be affected that way, why not the other way? That could be a nice question to get an answer to. Maybe he could be the case

SilentKnight · 11-16-2014, 09:01 PM

Hey, if you want to believe the hoax is true...by all means, knock yourself out.

However, extraordinary claims require extraordinary proof. Ain`t seen any of that yet. I still call bullshit.

The longest undisputed lifespan for a male is that of Jiroemon Kimura of Japan (1897–2013), who died in June 2013 at age 116 years, 54 days. He was also the world's oldest living person from December 2012 until his death. (wikipedia)

They should cut him in half and count the rings.

You could make it to 175 living in a mud hut, but not when you live in a society like ours.

I didnt know Paul Markham used to be a cobbler in India.
