This article is about validated specific supercentenarian claims by modern standards. For modern, or complete, unvalidated supercentenarian claims, see Longevity claims. For historical, incomplete unvalidated supercentenarian claims, see Longevity myths.
This is a list of the world's verified oldest people, verified to the standards of the Gerontology Research Group, Guinness World Records, or both. Entries are ranked in descending order by individual ages in years and days, rather than ages in total days (the calendar year used is the time between one date and the subsequent date in a following year regardless of year lengths). A verified supercentenarian is a person whose reported age of 110 or more is supported by at least three documents, submitted in a standard process and validated in reliable fashion, by an international body widely recognized for specific expertise in longevity research.
The oldest verified person ever was French woman Jeanne Calment, who died at the age of 122 years, 164 days. For other validated supercentenarian cases listed below, the GRG list of validated supercentenarian cases can be used. There are six verified living supercentenarians on this list, including the oldest verified living person, Japanese woman Misao Okawa, aged 126 years, 295 days.
