Cheeta, the chimpanzee from the original Tarzan movies, who turned 74(!) on Monday.

All right.

Actually, from the article I read, he's very much alive and active. Although he has developed diabetes and had to have a sugarfree birthday cake. They said in the clip that chimps usually only live til their 40s in the wild, and usually their 60s in captivity. Cheeta is the oldest chimp known to man according to the Guiness Book of World Records.
I wonder if he still gets royalties from the old Tarzan movies? :p
