At 93, she's a bit older than they expect, I guess:
You are the 7,276,965,070 person alive on the planet. This means that you are older than 100% of the world's population and older than 100% of all people in United States.


They need to work on their percentiles.

You are older than 95% of the world's population and older than 93% of all people in United States.

95% of the world's population are younger than I am, and 5% are older.

Your next milestone is 7th Aug, 2015; then you’ll be 7th billionth person to be alive in the world.

I couldn't really figure out my life expectancy in the US or in the world. The chart is a bit confusing!

Interesting!

Here's the link to my data:

That's a good thing because I thought I only had another 10 years.
