First, Happy father's day folks.

Who was recorded the oldest man to have fathered a child? (Last 125 years).

Somebody pul-leeze answer this before Karrow sees it. I don't know why, but the woman just won't stop insulting me.

Oldest Father
Mine worker Les Colley (1898-1998), from the town of Ararat in western Victoria, made world headlines as the world's oldest father at age 93 yr. 10 mo., when his son Oswald was born in July 1992. "I never thought she would get pregnant so easy, but she bloody well did," he told the papers, discounting the possibility that perhaps HE had more to do with this miracle of fertilization. A non-drinker and non-smoker, he remained active up to the very end, succumbing to pneumonia four months shy of his 100th birthday. Unfortunately, due to the nature of the site, I cannot provide a link to it under AP rules.

Perhaps the most famous of all elderly fathers, Chaplin was 73 when his youngest son, Christopher, was born. Legendarily fertile, Chaplin fathered a total of 11 children and was married four times. He is a long way off being the world’s oldest father, however: that honour is thought to belong to the now-deceased Les Colley, who became a father at 92 after taking a Fijian bride whom he had met through a dating agency a year earlier. Colley died in 1998 after a brief bout of pneumonia but his son, Oswald, lives on. - Myanmar Times

The famously old South Carolina senator, Strom Thurmond, who died at 100, was praised by many for his "virility" when he became a father for the first time at 68. Actor Tony Randall became a father at 78, and author Saul Bellow at 84.

A 93-year-old Australian man, Les Colley, reportedly broke the oldest father record when his wife gave birth to a son, Oswald, in 1992. - Health Daily News

Les Colley was the man. Good answer DG.
