WOW!, Gertrude Baines looks so young, she is 114 years and 7 months old in this movie so approaching 115.

She may be the oldest person in the world eventually, she seems in better shape than Edna Parker and Maria de Jesus.

WOW indeed. She's definitely exceptional, - laughing with elder people is magic.

Mentally very sharp. Seems her mobility and coordination is a bit limited. Now when can we get a supercentenarian voting and espousing libertarian principles. sheesh.

The supercentenarians are so young nowadays, why has noone in the last 9 years celebrated a 117th birthday? and not a single verified person in the world at 115.

Congrats GerTRUDE! She is in fantastic shape considered her 114 years!

Gertrude Baines has now turned 115. She has declined a bit since she was hospitalized for dehydration but is still aware of her birthday. Regarding her longevity she says "Of all the people in the world, why do I have to be the one? I didn't ask for this."
