He is the 26th oldest man in Finnish history.
He was on the list since May 16, 2024.
March 11, 2024 was the last list without anyone from Satakunta.
For the first time, Åland Islands enters the list.
Since the list of December 20, 2025, we have 4 people over 106 on this list.
January 8 was the last list with someone who was 103 years old (there were 3).

November 24, 2023 was the last list that included someone who was 108 years old.

No it wasn't, this was a limbo case that had died abroad several years ago. The last time Finland had a 108-year-old man was on 17th January 2025.

That's right, Arvi Hämäläinen unfortunately passed away shortly after turning 108.
Thank you for correcting me.
