| Subject: Attention Anarcho-Capitalists: Oldest person dies at 116, ate egg every day (plus bacon) Sat May 14, 2016 3:12 am | |
| The oldest known person in the world has died in New York aged 116.
Born on an Alabama farm in July 1899, Susannah Mushatt Jones was also the last living American born in the 19th Century.
She lived in three centuries, through two world wars and 20 US presidencies.
Ms Jones always maintained that lots of sleep and no smoking or drinking were the main reasons she lived to celebrate her 116th birthday last year.
But perhaps it was due to the pleasures she allowed herself in life too.
In an interview with Time Magazine last year, she admitted to eating four strips of bacon with scrambled egg every day.
