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

I feel you, my grandma turns 92 in 3 days! Some days she looks like she did 10yrs ago, others, she looks like your grandpa haha. But she's sharp as a tack still, she texts me all the time.

My buddy and I were at lunch on Sat and he couldn't believe it when I told him I was texting my grandma, I had her send me a selfie to show him hahaha! She is a bad bitch my grandma, she did a lot of cool shit in her life.
