J.D. Salinger. He had his 90th birthday the other day, I hadn't realised he's still around.
Claude Lévi-Strauss - strange how the original structuralist has outlived all the post-structuralists.

I thought Ricardo Montalban had died a few years back, but maybe I'd confused him with Scotty, or someone.

For the last two years or so I had thought Douglas Crimp had died around 20 years ago (it turns out it was Craig Owens)

Also, I've found it's very easy to forget that Jean-Luc Godard is still alive, even in spite of his activity in the 00's.

Jimmy Young
Did you mean you were surprised he's still alive? I thought at first you were expressing incredulity that anyone could think he'd died. (sorry for being so slow)

With Schmidt and Worsthorne the situation is more it occasionally being brought to my attention that they're still going, and being vaguely surprised to be reminded of this, whereas with Murray Walker I was sure I remembered reading his obituary, but then I saw him on TV talking about his 90th birthday.

many years ago, I was convinced that Russell Crowe had died during the filming of Gladiator. Turned out it was Oliver Reed.

Now I'm trying to work out who it was that that died I was confusing with Murray Walker.
― One Trick Over-Painted Pony (soref), Monday, 11 November 2013 14:11 (eleven years ago)
Gene Wilder.
These days it's common for Hollywood actors to star in movies well into their 70s and 80s, so I kinda assumed the reason the reason Wilder hasn't appeared in movies for 20+ years is because he's dead... But it turns out he simply retired at the age normal people do.

Mikhail Kalashnikov (was in an alive-or-dead round in a pub quiz recently). He turned 94 yesterday.
I also have to periodically check whether Ariel Sharon is still hanging in there (he is).
xxposts, re Murray Walker confusion, maybe Harry Carpenter?
