[Zippyjuan]

His 100 year old wife Anne is still alive- they have been married since 1954.

Oscar-winning actor Kirk Douglas has died aged 103.

The stage and screen actor was well-known for a range of roles, including the 1960 classic Spartacus, in which he played the titular character.

Born in New York in 1916, he rose to prominence during Hollywood's "golden age", earning his first Oscar nomination for the 1949 boxing story Champion.

He was also the father of Oscar-winning actor Michael Douglas.

Got a whale of a tale to tell ya lad
A whale of a tale, it's true
Of the floppin' fish, and the girls I've loved
On nights like this, with the moon above
A whale of a tale, and it's all true
I swear by my tatoo

I would bet heavily that while making this scene it never occurred to anyone that he would outlive her by 11 years.
