    Ah so he broke his own record. A 104 yo lady almost beat him but died (naturally and unrelated to the jump) before claiming her prize, so he must've done it for the love of the game right? I am fairly confident after reading that his record will now never be broken. How many centarians even think about shit like this? What a guy.
