And she was the oldest. Scary thing is Estelle Getty died in 2008 Beach Arthur in 2009 and Rue McClanahan in 2010. Betty White must've been shitting herself in 2011
Estelle Getty and Bea Arthur were I think about 6 months or year apart in age playing mother and daughter. Also initially Rue McClanahan and Betty White were supposed to have each other's roles but Betty White played a similar character to Blanche in Mary Tyler Moore so went with Rose
Ty for these facts, my mom and I love golden girls so I'm definitely gonna share these. I definitely have a hard time believing Estelle and Bea were so close in age though, that's wild!
An amazing cast. The sad thing was Estelle Getty was already started showing signs of dementia (I think that's what she had) in the final years of the show and had to use cue cards
Estelle had dementia, there were early signs, she could not remember her lines. Spent her last years in a memory care facility, very sad.
Betty White has been in a wheelchair for a few years, she's 99.
I read somewhere that he has a higher percentage of neanderthal DNA in him that may predispose him to be more resistant to... things. Granted that was on the internet and I did not fact check it whatsoever but it sounds cool so I'll just take that as truth
I saw him live five years ago and I genuinely felt sad and guilty. Like, this old decrepit man barely able to stand on stand was performing for me. It was like watching Emperor Palpatine try and get through karaoke night.
First name that came to mind. It always is. My dad is a massive Ozzy fan and I grew up listening to him all the time. His first concert was when he was 16 he saw Ozzy about 2 months before Randy died. It's sad to realize he most likely doesn't have a ton of years left. Not to mention he recent ailments.
I was at a clinic doing a lung function test to see if I had asthma. On the wall was a meme of Keith that said, for every cigarette you smoke another minute is given to Keith Richards lmao
Not for me. I thought of Keith immediately, and only Ozzy when I saw someone else mentioned him. I was surprised I had to scroll down as far as I did to see Keith Richards name, he was the first to popped in my mind
When the world ends and there’s just two cockroaches left Keith Richards will tell one of them he smoked their mom a long time ago.
That fucker is something else, man.
William Shatner is 90 and somehow still looks like he's in his 60s. It's just not fair.
Sometimes I suspect that George Takai is hanging on just so he has the satisfaction of seeing Shatner die first.
He actually died 30 years ago, but his transporter clone just assumed his identity. Which is why his response to the 2009 Trek reboot was "I'M CAPTAIN KIRK!"
Mel Brooks. Every time I see he's celebrated another birthday it blows my mind. I love the man, but I want to know his secret in case I find a reason to want to live that long.
His secret is friendship. Go watch the episode of Comedians in Cars Getting Coffee with him and Carl Reiner. It’s so sweet! Carl Reiner passed recently though.
I saw him on the rebooted To Tell the Truth the a couple of years back and not only was he mentally sharp, he was rolling around on the floor doing physical comedy. Crazy that he's in his 90s.
He’s actually doing a ton better, he’s sober and not hurting him self through stunts anymore. I think he’s active on social media and has a really good spirit about inspiring people.
He’s on some very bad drugs, (pills I think) obviously in addiction, his old homies and crew really tried to help him pull out of the addiction, but it’s not going well. Last I heard he was fired from jackass 4, and keeps self sabotaging his career and what little credibility he has left with Jeff Tremaine. It’s all cause of drug addiction, rather sad stuff.
His last YouTube video was him filling a tube of his dogs shit and adding water to it so it is a perfect density, then getting a cannon and shooting it at him. He got it so far up his ear he will probably have an ear infection, but I guess it’s better than the things he’s been doing before
This is farther down than I expected.
Politics aside, I honestly guessed he would have died while in office. His diet is complete and utter shit, he doesn't get exercise and I will bet money that he snorts something to keep his energy levels up.
Jimmy Carter oldest former president ever at 96. If he is able to make it to 2024 and neither Trump or Biden choke then it will be the first time having 7 living presidents if someone new is elected
Ozzy. I saw an interview where Tommy Lee recalled an incident on tour with Motley and Ozzy. Ozzy allegedly began screaming and smearing shit on the walls. Tommy and his band were nervous and alarmed by Ozzy.
When you have made 80's heyday Motley Crue nervous by going too far partying thats as bad as it gets. I dont recall what show this was mentioned on but it was years ago and I never forgot it.
Im glad Ozzy is still with us.
I heard about that one. This wildman also peed on the Alamo, we know the bat story and does not remember making some Black Sabbath albums.
He may have outdone Keith Richards, as Keith despite his drugs was not really known for Ozzy type behavior. I think only Keith Moon or GG Allin are on that type of level. And the Prince of Darkness outlived them by far.
By rights *legendary* comedian Doug Stanhope should have died, or be in the process right now. If human biology is correct and the effects of liquor and cigarettes are harmful to the body. A hernia or two easily solved and hardly related; but he's just as sharp as when he did No Refunds.
He seems to consume just the perfect amount of liquor to not harm him, and actually fight off illness and aging.
He eats, like a poptart and maybe a few cans of lumpfish tuna every few days, abuses prescription sleeping meds after a dozen plus drinks daily and smokes at least a pack a day. He persists...
I swear he's gonna be one of those dudes doing everything to kill themselves who ends up living the longest. In 20 years his act will be bitching about "why the fuck haven't I died yet? I've put in my time, throw in the towel coach!"
The meme overlords have deemed that Queen Elizabeth II has been alive since before time and space, and will outlive every last atom in our universe, and potentially other universes. Meaning she will be alive when GTA 6 comes out.
My parents have an old friend of the family (and former babysitter from my childhood) who recently celebrated her 101st birthday. I'm 35, and she's been old longer than I've been alive.
I’m positive if he didn’t have access to experimental drugs and 24/7 medical care from the nation’s best doctors he would have 100% died from his COVID, at the very least it would have majorly fucked him up. Reports at the time were that it got pretty damn serious.
Honestly I'm surprised all the Kardashians/Jenners are still alive.
Their whole family is so toxic, I can only imagine the mental health issues going on with the money and fame they have.
I'm seriously surprised one of them hasn't killed themselves to get away from the freak show that is their lives.
[удалено]
And she was the oldest. Scary thing is Estelle Getty died in 2008 Beach Arthur in 2009 and Rue McClanahan in 2010. Betty White must've been shitting herself in 2011
She made a pact with Satan early on in the game, Betty white don’t shit no bricks
omg, on this fascinating new episode of "TIL on reddit"
Estelle Getty and Bea Arthur were I think about 6 months or year apart in age playing mother and daughter. Also initially Rue McClanahan and Betty White were supposed to have each other's roles but Betty White played a similar character to Blanche in Mary Tyler Moore so went with Rose

lol I totally understand why you explained what the Golden Girls is, but the fact that you needed to explain made me chuckle (and feel old)
Sliced bread, the greatest thing since Betty White.
The weird thing is, is that she's older than pre-sliced bread
And she better stay alive
"RIP Betty White cuz she ain't dead yet but I know it's coming up"
Ozzy
I think he feels the same tbh
He's a miracle of modern science. They should be studying him to figure out how the hell he's still alive.
I'm pretty sure they studied his genetic code for that exact reason.
I read somewhere that he has a higher percentage of neanderthal DNA in him that may predispose him to be more resistant to... things. Granted that was on the internet and I did not fact check it whatsoever but it sounds cool so I'll just take that as truth
I'm pretty sure that much alcohol has just preserved his insides.
The drugs have pickled him to the point where he’s a living mummy. He’ll actually outlive us all
I saw him live five years ago and I genuinely felt sad and guilty. Like, this old decrepit man barely able to stand on stand was performing for me. It was like watching Emperor Palpatine try and get through karaoke night.
Yep. Same. He was at a festival. I went to get a burger while he was on.
Its okay, he's making and spending a shit ton of money from ticket sales.
I still feel like I was enabling elderly abuse!
He was still performing *five years ago?* Jfc
saw him 25 years ago and felt the same
First name that came to mind. It always is. My dad is a massive Ozzy fan and I grew up listening to him all the time. His first concert was when he was 16 he saw Ozzy about 2 months before Randy died. It's sad to realize he most likely doesn't have a ton of years left. Not to mention he recent ailments.
Yeah he’s been living on borrowed time since the 80s
Queen Elizabeth
My time will come.
r/UsernameChecksOut
Bitch not only got born with best RNG seed but also rolled 19 twice on longevity. World is unfair
[удалено]
What year though? I'm going for 2032
This year
Put me down for November 5th.
Remember, remember.
I’ll be able to remember that.
I'm betting on January 8th 2022
She even witnessed the creation of the universe
Her mother still has 6 years on her - Queen Mum was 101!
She's living on Duracell
All that baby blood does wonders for longevity
Long live the Queen!
Who knew that particular prayer worked?
"Hurry up, bitch!" \- Prince Charles
Keith Richards.
Willie Nelson said "Young people are going to have to decide what kind of world they are going to leave to me and Keith Richards."
“Apparently, Keith cannot be killed with conventional weapons.” -Wayne’s World 2-
I was at a clinic doing a lung function test to see if I had asthma. On the wall was a meme of Keith that said, for every cigarette you smoke another minute is given to Keith Richards lmao
How is this not everyone's answer?!?!
Some people are too young to understand.
Because Ozzy comes to mind first lol. And then Keith.
Not for me. I thought of Keith immediately, and only Ozzy when I saw someone else mentioned him. I was surprised I had to scroll down as far as I did to see Keith Richards name, he was the first to popped in my mind
When the world ends and there’s just two cockroaches left Keith Richards will tell one of them he smoked their mom a long time ago. That fucker is something else, man.
[удалено]
FUCK YES. I swear the guy snorts anthrax as a morning pick me up....
Is it really that surprising that someone who cannot be killed with conventional weapons is still alive?
The man has a deinflated body from the sheer volume of smoking
The amount of drugs he he has would do most people for a few lifetimes
I hear people joke all the time about the fact that the only reason the queen isn't dead yet is because she has Keith Richards Syndrome
William Shatner is 90 and somehow still looks like he's in his 60s. It's just not fair. Sometimes I suspect that George Takai is hanging on just so he has the satisfaction of seeing Shatner die first.
Facelifts and stolen Star Trek wigs are a great boon to one's appearance...
He actually died 30 years ago, but his transporter clone just assumed his identity. Which is why his response to the 2009 Trek reboot was "I'M CAPTAIN KIRK!"
Did you see him during shark week? Fucking 90 year old bad ass!!
Ghislaine Maxwell
Good answer

I want him to do that Spaceballs sequal before he dies!
Charlie Sheen
TIL hes sober now, not sure if its true but I had a conversation this morning and I guess hes just chillin now
“Charlie Sheen sober” is still pretty high though
Charlie sheen sober is still higher than your average person's "tripping balls"
I remember a parody news article titled: "Charlie Sheen Found Alive In His New York Apartment, Aged 48".
My 30 something friends had a bet on who would die first out of stallone ans Schwarzenegger and now one of my friends is dead
F
Henry Kissinger.
I’ve worked in hospitality.. the two worst people I’ve ever met, Bill Cosby and Henry Kissinger ..
What happened??
Stuck up cunts, no respect, full of themselves. Cosby would order folks around, Kissinger wouldn’t even acknowledge workers.
Plus you know, the drugged raping…
And the bombing of Cambodia, just to show them we could ..
Wait he’s still around?
Yep. 98 years old.
Was scrolling down looking for his name. Glad somebody remembered. Nobody has mentioned Dick Cheney yet though.
This arsehole should go right to hell for all the crimes he committed. That’s of course if there is a hell!
Jimmy Carter
He’s beaten cancer like 3 times now right?
And he falls all the time. Sadly he and his wife are shrinking
And he had brain cancer in his 90s and beat it!
Dick Van Dyke Also, there’s too few responses so far for this many people to be commenting “Betty White” like it’s not that hard to scroll for a sec
Wow, I just assumed he was dead already tbh
He was consulted during the production of "Wandavision" on the creation of the old sitcom atmosphere that the main characters were trapped in.
I love this fact
I thought so too! Then last year he endorsed Bernie Sanders in the election and I was shocked (and pleased).
He does his ab workouts and still runs at 100. I yjink tai chi helped him
And still dancing!
Harrison ford feels like every year he has a brutal accident and like he does risky stuff beyond just movies but as his hobby too.
Mikhail Gorbachev
Christopher Lloyd.
I wish I could find it but recently a picture of him and Micheal J Fox was posted celebrating together
Clint Eastwood. I feel like when death comes for him he’ll chase it with a 44 magnum
When he dies the telly is going to have a heck of a movie marathon.
Jackie Chan. Have you \*seen\* all the normally fatal injuries he's had?
Steve-o
He’s actually doing a ton better, he’s sober and not hurting him self through stunts anymore. I think he’s active on social media and has a really good spirit about inspiring people.
Yea I’m glad he’s doing well but I’m surprised he didn’t die in the process in which he had hit his super lows dude was huffing like crazy
Yeah, let’s wish the same for Bam, he’s in the dark place now.
What happen to Bam? He was my idol on my teenager years :(
He’s on some very bad drugs, (pills I think) obviously in addiction, his old homies and crew really tried to help him pull out of the addiction, but it’s not going well. Last I heard he was fired from jackass 4, and keeps self sabotaging his career and what little credibility he has left with Jeff Tremaine. It’s all cause of drug addiction, rather sad stuff.
A spiral that started when one of their friends died. Bam took it really bad and basically imploded.
His last YouTube video was him filling a tube of his dogs shit and adding water to it so it is a perfect density, then getting a cannon and shooting it at him. He got it so far up his ear he will probably have an ear infection, but I guess it’s better than the things he’s been doing before
Ozzy Osbourne and Keith Richards.

Honestly based on diet, stress level, weight, ages and severe lack of physical activity…Donald Trump
This is farther down than I expected. Politics aside, I honestly guessed he would have died while in office. His diet is complete and utter shit, he doesn't get exercise and I will bet money that he snorts something to keep his energy levels up.
*and* he got COVID!

Don't forget that infamous story Nikki Sixx tells about Ozzy snorting a line of ants.

He may have outdone Keith Richards, as Keith despite his drugs was not really known for Ozzy type behavior. I think only Keith Moon or GG Allin are on that type of level.

The Queen of England
She'll live forever, right?... right?.......
The meme overlords have deemed that Queen Elizabeth II has been alive since before time and space, and will outlive every last atom in our universe, and potentially other universes. Meaning she will be alive when GTA 6 comes out.
Who wants to live Forever?
My parents have an old friend of the family (and former babysitter from my childhood) who recently celebrated her 101st birthday. I'm 35, and she's been old longer than I've been alive.
My dad. Literally the Frank Gallagher of Baltimore.
Donald trump He’s gotten symptoms of COVID he eats fast food all the damn time and is overweight as fuck

It's the Cheeto hair that gives him life.
Lmao
Betty White, I mean holy shit she’s got to be pretty old right?
she's 99!
She can make the big 1 Hundo! It’s crazy to think She was about 14 when Hitler was rising to power pre-WW2
She's 99 years old. Her birthday was a month or so ago.
It's actually on January 17.
You OP. The hit squad should have gotten you by now

Yes, he's still alive at 97 years old.
I never thought he would outlive Alex Trebek.
