According to the immigrant statistics of statbank.dk, the 1921-born man from Copenhagen who passed away in February was the Danish-born man born in July 1921 (most likely Cordt Sandvik).
The doyen of Denmark is born on 28 July 1920. At the beginning of 2026, there were two people born in July 1920 in Denmark, one of whom was born on 28 July and the other on 30 July (source). The person born on 30 July 1920 was a woman who died in April (source).
February 12, 2025 was the last list with 9 104+ and at least 2 105+ (there were 3)
If the anonymous person from May 1922 turned 104, it would be the first time since April 27, 2024 with 10 104+
Karl Nielsen, the doyen of Denmark, confirmed to have reached 106 years: https://jv.dk/soenderborg/karl-er-nu-106-aar-hurra-og-tillykke-til-vestdanmarks-aeldste-mand

Also, the second-oldest man was probably born on 5 March 1921 (as there was a woman born on 2 March 1921 who passed away earlier this year).
