She proved her age on the Doctors I believe by showing them her birth certificate or something.

I don't know of 'the Doctors' you speak of, and don't see such a claim on her website, and I can't locate any such content on youtube. Extraordinary claims require extraordinary evidence. I am not saying she is a fraud, just that the 'proof' she puts forth is not adequate to satisfy my skepticisim. I don't want to sound paranoid, but there are fradulaent longevity claims from time to time, and children do sometimes assume the identity of parents for the mere purpose of collecting social secuirty benefits. In this case she has the additional motivations of the book she sells and her vegan cause. She has a website to market herself, but she does not provide any photographic records or objective third party accounts to support her claims on her website.

Well a quick youtube search for "Annette Larkins The Doctors" gave me this (02:55):

Its her drivers license, I'm not sure how reliable that is. Also she claims that she was confident and enjoyed promoting her stuff on a small scale (for many years) and just recently decided to go out to the public. I recall on an interview that she hoped The Doctors would also debunk her having any plastic surgery but I don't think they checked her for that.

Paul McCartneys Wife Nancy Shevell looks pretty good for being in her early 50s:

Its her drivers license, I'm not sure how reliable that is.

And it is a FL License. I have two fake FL drivers licenses, one says I am 43 the other 61. $100 each from China, very realistic looking, holograms, scanable magnetic strips. I think it is the most counterfited State license. No one outside of a law enforcement with access to the Florida database could tell it is a fake. But that's not my point. If she just assumed her mother's identiy 20 years ago, she could have a valid FL driver's license with her picture on it. i'd be convinced if I saw some pictures of Annette with her husband in her 20s and 30s and 40s, I should think that is something most people would have.

Here is a crazy 63 year old guy, David Wynn Miller, born 1949, in his 2012 seminar on YouTube where he describes how he stopped aging in his twenties (he died during surgery; lost adrenal glands).

Here is an article about him from 2011:

Wow I had a read through that link and he sounds like a super-nut! Good on him, managing to suck people into such an absurd thing. I would be suspicious of the age he claims to be but I can tell that he is atleast over 50 and looking great at whatever age he is. He has had a hair transplant or is wearing a wig and there could be a bit of botox there but does not look like he has had any facelifts or surgery.

[nightlight]

I would be suspicious of the age he claims to be

Wikipedia shows his birth year as 1949.

While he is obviously operating on a different plane where few would dare enter, he has tapped onto something, keeping him young physically and mentally (after all he is a 'former tool and dye welder' - can't have unhealthier job than that). Note that he doesn't appear defficient in testosterone or growth hormone or seem to starve himself, as was the case with other youngish looking males shown earlier in the thread. Maybe the naturally high dopamine, as schizophrenics and manics have, can do that (e.g. selegiline has been hailed as youth elixir; or in folklore/religion one would call it 'selling his soul to the devil').

How about Dr. Des Fernandes?



From http://owndoc.com/
This man is 70 years old!



Dermaneedling pioneer Dr. Desmond (Des) Fernandes dermarolled his own face more than 50 times. The result: Skin that looks decades younger than his age, in spite of the South African sun. His results prove that dermarolling is both long-term safe and effective. Recent YouTube interview with Dr. Fernandes so you can see that he really looks like that.

Re David Miller: He looks great for 63, I would guess 43. But he is a wacko. I don't believe anything the guy says. Anyone that uses the word quantum in conjuction with the word grammer is just a con man and snake oil sales man. If you read the footnote on the wikipedia article it just references the video link where he states his birth date.

Re Fernandes: Great hair for a 70 year old. Better than his skin, which he claims to be exceptional because of Vit A, etc... The still photo looks at the least a cherry picked glamor shot, possibly years ago, possibly touched up. In the video he looks 62 to me. His neck really ages him. He appears to have lost a lot of facial bone volume.

[smithx]

Miller said that scientists in England discovered the "aging gene" and that his "aging gene" was eliminated when he "died".

No need to waste time on this one.

Hard to "paper-over" the effects of gravity and bone loss. That will take real rejuvenation biotechnology.

Kudos to Cindy Jackson for being honest about wanting to look young and being open about using cosmetic surgery to achieve those ends. Seems like facial aging is getting harder for her to combat, based on her 2012 picture on her blog. Her mouth looks a little odd, or stretched, or something, like Joan Collins.

I would say she still looks much younger, around 30s or so, but it's hard to know how much foundation she is wearing etc, would be interesting to know what supplements she takes.

I can guarantee that it's not the supplements, if she's even taking any. She's had about 5 facelifts from the time she was 40 I believe. Her transformation is quite impressive, it actually seems like she got younger rather than older. She followed something called the Golden Ratio of beauty, in which she also had her jawline reconstructed.

[Adamzski]

Recent YouTube interview with Dr. Fernandes so you can see that he really looks like that.

You cant trust video, I have used this plugin


It works well, it tries to auto detect the face and only needs a few tweaks when lighting drastically changes

[JBForrester]

What about George Hamilton? He is 73 years old, and I'm actually quite impressed with how tight his skin is. I actually wonder if his constant tan did wonders on his skin as opposed to what we often hear. His skin just seems to be glowing and shiny - which seems to be the case whenever I used to get tans as well.
Here he is 69 years old, but still. Have you ever seen his current wife, too? Google Dr. Barbara Sturm. She is 36 years old and looks like she could be his grandaughter (mind you, she is a dermatologist).


Could over-protecting our skin, or not getting enough constant sun, do more damage than good?

[Adamzski]

There is some Chinese saying that, If you sleep in bed with a younger woman every night then you get energy or something... maybe it works for him!
My ex gf was 14 years younger than me and apart from her keeping me off the cigs/alc and making sure that I used a 5-step skincare system morning/night I think it really did make me younger looking being with her.
The girls that I am with are always at least 10yrs younger than me. It may be sick hahahaah but when I am with a woman of similar age to me I can not help but keep looking at their under eyes and crows feet... Men do age well but women don't.

Men think they age well...and studies have shown that if you think you are younger, you'll most likely "stay younger".
http://www.scienceda...20611193531.htm

My mom recently married someone 25 years younger than her, and he thinks she's amazingly beautiful, which she is. She has aged beautifully. So I don't think we can make sweeping generalizations that men age better than women, or vice versa. It's very circumstantial.

That Chinese saying kinda worries me when I think of the frequency of under-age sex-trafficking (sorry to be political)...

Re: George Hamilton. He looks good for 69, at least in a suit and tie, from that picture I would guess 59. But he is very hollywood, so one should assume, unless he proclaims otherwise, that he has had work done. His great smile, which I am sure is enhanced, adds a lot to his youthful appearance. I doubt he looks real good in a short sleeve shirt with a regular collar, and you will not find any recent (last 20+ years) pictures of him in anything but a long sleeve shirt and colar. Despite his famous tanning habit, there are no recent (last 20+ years) of him tanning. Based upon what I have read, I have long suspected his color is primarily from canthaxanthin. OMG, his wife does look young! (and so pale). I am envious. Ironic that she is a Dermotologist, kind of like a Pulmonary Doctor marrying a Smoker.

75 at the time of the video. She's basically on CRON. She had eyelift only according to her.

She doesn't look very young. Leather skin masked with powder

[JohnD60]

Re 75 year old Boca Beauty: She lives in Boac Raton, it is almost mandatory to have regular cosmetic procedures down there. Her face is very stiff, probably a great deal of botox and filler at the least. I'd bet she has had more undereye work than what she admits to. Yes, she looks good for 75, a hottie as 75 year olds go, but to me she doesn't look especially young for 75. A general reality of life is people that look exceptionally good in their 20s look exceptionally good in their 70s as long as they don't abuse their bodies.

[DAMI]

heres the very latest video interview with him. He sounds young too. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=CZpwYagnALI

I read somewhere that he had some kind of hormone imbalance which might have something to do with why he looked 15 at 23. But I don't know anything else about it.

Honestly, in my opinion this Ralph macchio guy who keeps popping up here never looked particularly young for his age...he only creates the illusion that he looks younger due to his childlike facial features like the big, round, wide-set eyes. When I look at some pictures of him when he was in his 20s he clearly showed signs of aging.


Here you can see the beginning hollowness under his eyes and that his cheek pads are lower set than typical for a teenager. But most people will only see a boyish face and immediately assume that it must be a teenager. I think this is the secret of many supposedly "young-looking" people, including jared leto and julian casablancas.

[mustardseed41]

To say Ralph Macchio has never looked young for his age is beyond funny. So not true.

[JohnD60]

I am the same age, build and ethnic background as Ralph Macchio, so I think I can say with some degree of authority that he looks very young for his age. Yes, he does have some genetic characteristics like large eyes, a full head of hair, a broad smile and a sharp jawliine that enhance his youthful appearance, but those are less than half of what makes him look youthful. He has exceptionally good skin, few wrinkles, is in good shape, and shows little bone lose. Based upon the pictures, I think he has had under eye implants, maybe 15 years ago, but that is just speculation.

[Audioque]

Zhang Tingxuan, 41 year old mother of two, looks like she's in her twenties. She credits her youthful appearance to workout and a high fruit diet.

[Adaptogen]

okay she looks pretty good

[JBForrester]

Yes ^ pretty impressive actually. Though if you google image her name, there are a few pics that seem to show her age a bit better. Sometimes it just depends on lighting.

To name another:

Carol Alt at 52 years old:


I think she could pull off being in her mid-30s/early 40s by this pic.

[Audioque]

Yeah, there's bit of a sunken look under her eyes. That's usually the giveaway when it comes to Asians despite of excellent skin conditions and other things.

I notice that a lot of these people are on a highly plant based and/or raw diet.




Carol Alt looks better than some 36 year old I know.
