Age 104 facts
While investigating facts about Age 104, I found out little known, but curios details like:
about the great Joe Rollino. A Coney Island strongman who advocated for healthy living ahead of his time. Bent a quarter on his 103rd birthday - using his teeth. He died at age 104 when he was hit by a minivan during one of his daily walks in Brooklyn.
Dr. Howard Jones, who in 1978 was forced into retirement due to rigid age restrictions for surgeons at Johns Hopkins. Rather than end his medical career, Jones moved to Virginia, where in 1981 at the age of 70, he performed the first IVF case in the U.S. He died in 2015 at the age of 104.
In my opinion, it is useful to put together a list of the most interesting details from trusted sources that I've come across. Here are 9 of the best facts about Age 104 I managed to collect.
