Worth noting that Bill Ramsey sent Jumbo Pumping Hate (5.14a, 8b+) after turning 59 last year. It's especially gnarly given the approach to that route and the fact that Bill had to have hip surgery shortly after. He also sent two 5.14b (8c) routes in his 50s. There's for sure some other old crushers out there.
