Jeanne Calment gave up smoking at 117 [0].

Number of people who also lived past 117 is three [1].

Sarah Knauss had a fondness for sweets and hated vegetables [2] lived to 119.

Edit: Merely a curio of the people who held number 1 and 2 position of verified oldest people for over two decades.

Apologies, if the post suggested otherwise.
