You can check which ones of them were validated by professional gerontology/longevity organizations, though I think that at least Benjamin Garner has recently been validated by the Gerontology Research Group. 172.59.128.60 (talk) 05:12, 11 August 2024 (UTC)
- Benjamin Garner is indeed validated by the GRG here: https://www.grg-supercentenarians.org/2024-validations/ His validation is a very recent one. 172.59.128.60 (talk) 22:33, 11 August 2024 (UTC)
