Frank Epperson invented the Popsicle in 1905.
How old was he??

5 or 8. I'm going with 8. He left his juice outside on a cold night with a spoon in it and the world would never be the same again.

He was not 5 or 8.
Good try MrSensitive.

Yes, blueeagle65 he was 11.

Frank was 11 when he mixed some soda water powder
to drink, but left it on the back porch overnight with the stirring stick in it. It froze solid, and the Epsicle was born. Later the
name was changed to Popsicle.
