How many of the oldest living things can you remember from Mr. Wonka’s list? (Don’t look back at the story!) Do you think all these things really exist, or are some of them purely imaginary?

Question

Philoid · Accepted Answer

Some of the oldest things from Mr. Wonka’s list are;

1. A 4000yrs old Bristlecone pines’ sap

2. A 168yrs old Russian farmer’s toe nail

3. A 200yrs old tortoise’s egg belonging to the King of Tonga

4. A 51yrs old Arabian Horse’s tail

5. A 36yrs old Cat’s whiskers

6. A 207yrs old Giant Tibetan Rat’s tail

7. A 97yrs old Grimalkin’s black teeth

I think most of these things do not exist except for maybe the pine trees and the tortoise egg.
