Fun site.
Other than my twin, Baker, I assume that most of you will want to plug in your own birthdays.
Not sure you can beat Douglas Fairbanks, though. wanders off to find a buckle to swash

How about Henry VIII? Or Bill Haley?
Cripes, I’m old.

Is there a site anywhere–there *must *be, just don’t know how to search for it!–that shows the ages famous people died at?
Like you would look up “73” and get a list of all famous people who died when they were 73.
Not sure if this site has an age sort or not.
Huh. I’m exactly half the age of George Washington today, apparently.
At your exact age, Edith Cavell died of execution by gunshot. She was a British nurse who helped hundreds of Allied soldiers and POWs escape the Germans in WWI.
I’ve outlived Stonewall Jackson by a week, and Martin Luther King Jr. was a month younger than me when he died.
And here I am, and I ain’t done shit.
Notice they don’t say whose vomit.
Oh, I don’t know, how does JFK rate?
everybody who’s not still alive
So far I’ve outlived Curley of The Three Stooges by two weeks.
That was depressing. I’ve outlived a suicide, an astronaut from the Challenger explosion, a guy who died of HEART cancer (wth??) and someone who could play 3 trumpets at once; maybe that explains his death by stroke at 41 years, 106 days.
Why just this month alone, I’ve outlived James Garfield, Dale Earnhardt, and Edith Cavell.
You’ve outlived George Boole by one day. He was a mathematician and philosopher who invented Boolean Algebra.
Oh, look what I have to look forward to!
In 27 days, when you reach 44 years and 1 day of age, your lifespan will surpass that of one of the most powerful drug dealers in history and head of the Medellín Cartel.
The site in the OP can do that. Select the little link under the form where it says “Browse by Age” and you get this page which has breakdowns of each age by decade. Click the “27” link and find most of the members of The 27 Club,
Enjoy,

Thanks! That’s exactly what I was looking for, and it was quite cheering, really. I am the same age as Raul Julia, John Ritter and Michael Landon when they died, and I remember everyone saying, “they were so young!”
Judith Resnick–2nd female astronaut, died when the Challenger exploded.
True.
More proof that you can find just about anything on the Net.
