George H.W. Bush became the longest-living president in US history on Saturday when he turned 93 years and 166 days old. He beat the previous record holder, Gerald Ford by two days. Ford was 93 years and 165 days old when he passed away in 2006.
Bush turned 93 on June 12 and celebrated his birthday with wife Barbara and family in the Bush compound in Kennebunkport, Maine.
In very recent years the former commander-in-chief bravely decided to celebrate his 90th birthday with skydiving.
While both George and Barbara, 92, are enjoying their longevity, they have faced some health issues recently.
Jimmy Carter is the second-oldest living president who was born on October 1, 1924.
Bush served his term in the Oval Office between 1989 and 1993.
He succeeded Ronald Reagan as the 41st president of the US when he was 64 years old.
