How often can someone who is 99 years old walk without needing even a walker?

I was watching this video of WWII veterans, and these two guys are 99.. they appear to be walking fairly well, and don't even have a walker, or a cane.. nothing.

The age means nothing , of course if you keep constantly active a 99 year old can walk unassisted , if you are a lazy prick who just sits in a chair , does no training of course this would be impossible.

STAY ACTIVE , stay alert and there is no need for walking frames , also NEVER use a walking frame or anything ( chair etc ) unless you absolutely HAVE to use same.

Just keep active. My aunt was 3 weeks shy of 100 years old and even I had trouble keeping up with her and I'm 2 feet taller than her. My neighbor's mother just turned 101 4 months ago and she still gets around quite well.

Obviously, it depends on individual health, fitness level, and any underlying medical conditions. Some people in this age group may be able to walk independently for long distances, while others may require assistance.

It obviously depends on the individual.
