England & Wales9,330 (mid 2007)[29]102 (1911)[30]
Spain≈10,000 (2007)[31]-
To have my own point of view I also downloaded data from mortality.org (free sign up) and looked at exposition for ages 100+. I did it only for Japan and France but many other countries are available:
in 2007 in Japan: 32,000 centenarians (86% females) and 41 supercentenarians (96% females)
in 2007 in France: 14,000 centenarians (88% females) and 10 supercentenarians (99% females)

The numbers are not too different from the wikipedia, so it doesn't look too bad.
It suggests how much chance a 100 year old person so far had to become supercentenarian: virtually 0...

Few days ago (on Nov. 17) I successfully defended 'my' Physics Ph.D. dissertation.

I just caught a mistake on my previous message: "Nov. 17" ['should have been']--> "Nov. 19".
(That's what happens when one does not celebrate the getting of a Doctor of Philosophy in Physics [this title almost gives me the feeling of 'me becoming a medical doctor, a philosopher and a physicist at the same time']).

The value '110.9 years' in the above (the-18-May-2011) post is a mistake. Ignore or delete that value/post.

It seems like the type of people who live past a hundred are the opposite of the type of people on this site, simple, peaceful small town type of people who are content and get along with people. They are generally moderate and seem to believe in God. Probably longevity runs in their families too. Except for work or walking from place to place, they didn't seem to exercise that much or participate in extreme regimens or be real sporty. It seems like living somewhere where the elderly are revered or cared for has a part to play as well. By that measure a lot of people here are screwed.

I think there was a woman in France who lived to about 125? She died in the last ten years or so.
Her name is Jeanne Calment and she died in 1997, aged 122 years + 164 days.

Also, really enjoyed the graph you made, so keep us posted and please make an updated version as time goes by
I am thinking of updating the graph (adding data points for the years 2010 and 2011) around January 2012.
Keep living

Struct, most of your examples live to be about 110. How did you miss Jean Calment? Aren't there a number of confirmed people who made it past the ages you quoted? Where is your information coming from?

I didn't miss her.

I don't know (I, also, don't know what do you mean by 'ages you quoted?').
Where is your information coming from?
What do you mean by 'your information'?

PS: this being clarified, IMO posts #257 to #265 above should be removed, perhaps not 262

I'll postpone posting the 'updated graph' to maybe Feb. or March. "Unexpectedly" I got 'fired' from teaching physics; nowadays I am getting ready to travel about 5 Mm (megameters) to another location.
