In 1933, The New York Times announced the death of Professor Li Chung Yun, a Chinese herbalist, at the age of 256 years. His age was officially recorded by the Chinese government (from which he received happy birthday congratulations on his 150th and 200th birthdays) and confirmed by various independent investigators, including the French and British government committees. Li had reportedly outlived 23 wives and was living with his 24th at the time of his death.

Professor Li, who taught herbal medicine at Beijing University on and off for two hundred years (sic!), asserted that all his wives failed to take prevention seriously and slacked on taking the same longevity herbs he was taking.
