I heard he's expected to be drafted ahead of Michael Sam.

“His co-workers...”
I guess having to work until I’m 75 doesn’t seem so bad now.

I’ll take, “This guy is probably not telling the truth, nor is he 116 years old, and is in cahoots with his so-called co-workers, and the story made it into a local new-age rag of a tabloid, as always happens in provincial India anyway” for $1.00, Alex.

My great aunt who died in about 1996 was 115 3/4 years old and in pretty good shape but she couldn’t do this......... I seriously doubt he is 116. My great aunt was the oldest person in the US at that time.

I doubt that he is 116. Does he have his birth certificate, and can it be trusted?
To: Husker24
Well that’s still a reputable time, no?

He is not on Wikipedia’s list of verified 100 oldest people,living and dead. My great aunt is there, she is #17.

That’s pretty dangerous, being the oldest person in the U.S. No one seems to live very long in that position.

Dharampal Gujjar cleared 200 meters in 46.74 seconds and won the 400 meters I wonder how well he'd do in the Indi 500 ??

This story is balderdash. Usain Bolt clocked a 46.74 last year, the same time this supposedly 116-year-old speedster ran. Butch Reynolds of the U.S. ran a 43.29 in 1988 and Michael Johnson of the U.S. ran 43.18 in 1999. To my knowledge, Johnson still holds the world record and Reynolds still has the second-fastest time.
To: HartleyMBaldwin
Yep, you would be kind of a flash in the pan! Talk about 15 minutes of fame........... that would be close.
