This is a partial list of the validated oldest living people in the world, according to the Gerontology Research Group[1]. All the people included in this list are supercentenarians (at least 110 years old) who have been verified to be alive at some point within the last year.[2]
The true number of living supercentenarians has been estimated at 150[3] and 600.[4] The actual number of living supercentenarians is uncertain because not all supercentenarians are known to researchers and also because some supercententarian claims are unproven.[3]
On 17 June 2015, American woman Susannah Mushatt Jones who is 124 years, 337 days[5] became the world's oldest living person.
