And, 2016 takes it's latest victim...

So we roughly have a 1 in 80 chance of popping off next year.

You can be more precise than that.

I suspect if you added a dimension for "number of broken hips in the last 12 months", it would be quite depressing.

My age group(55-64)has a 1 in 112 chance for males i see. That's better than my 1 in 80 prediction. Thanks for that!

Bruce Forsyth just peered past the lounge curtains...

INRNG reporting that "Ferdy" Kubler has died, aged 97.

Here he is (at 2.37) at the 1954 Tour, wearing the Green sprinters jersey which he won that year.

His palmares also includes winning the Tour in 1950 and the Worlds in 1951, as well as L-B-L and Fleche Wallone in 1952

We're all on one, sometime or other.

And it'll be 'interesting' to see how many survivors of the 2016 list make it passed 2017.

So, Brucie survived '16.

 

[jefmcg]

There's still a lot of old lovies who have to survive the next 7 hours. Then we can restart the clock as there aren't many celebrities in American Samoa, et al.

So, Brucie survived '16.

Exactly, the odds of Brucie surviving 2016 were higher than Leicester City winning the League. Imagine if you had a treble on those and Trump winning, you would have bankrupted the entire betting industry.
