Sharing this from Youtube (Video) and Reddit (Fun Facts below):
A few pieces of trivia I discovered about Juan Ponce Enrile, who was born in 1924 and is now 92 years old:
Queen Elizabeth is two years younger than Enrile.
Penicillin was invented four years after Enrile was born. (h/t Jomel Salas)
For the first four years of Enrile's life, sliced bread did not exist. Bread slicing machines were invented four years later.
Enrile is one year older than television.
The Jazz Singer, the first talkie film, was screened when Enrile was three years old.
The good news is, Enrile isn't older than Disney company. Disney was founded four months before he was born.
However, Enrile is still four years older than Mickey Mouse.
Sewer systems in the Philippines were modernized when Enrile was five years old. That most likely means he was drinking contaminated water for the first few years of his life.
In his early years, Enrile lived under an insular government, and only when he was 11 did Manuel Quezon take office under the Commonwealth government. Yes, Enrile was much, much older than the Tydings–McDuffie Act.
Enrile is as old as frozen food - or rather, the invention of frozen food.
Addendum: A list of things ordered by time of existence:
Reader's Digest (1922)
Enrile (1924)
The Great Gatsby (1925)
Winnie the Pooh (1926) scotch tape (1930)
