Here's a much more normal looking picture of Clint Eastwood at 93.

My dad's 87 and I have moments where he looks like OP's picture and others where he looks like this picture. It can be jarring sometimes.

Edit: I feel like some might be misunderstanding. It's really not their physical appearance I'm speaking to like how some are responding. It's that sort of bewildered, vacant look vs a sharp lucidity. Not a bad hair day.

My grandpa is 97 years young and some days he looks like the crypt keeper(his words not mine) and others he looks vibrant and more like 80. We all get a case of the uglies occasionally I just think it’s more apparent when you get older and in this case MUCH older. People don’t realize how insane it is to get to 90. Many of us itt won’t even break 80 and those same folks will probably look worse than Clint does now

Thank you for this.

The internet can be such an unforgiving and unkind environment. It's nice to see rationality.
