Go man go! This Aussie guy is 99 years old, at the World Masters Games which happened last week in Melbourne. Sporting events for folks beyond prime.

He came in fourth in his event, which was last-place. It was the Mens 90-and-over 100 Metres. He turned in a time of 28.57. The winner of the event was listed as in the 90-94 age category, with a time of 21.54.

Just about blew the guy's doors off.
