Self-Cloning Seagrass May Be World's Oldest Living Thing

Australian and European scientists say they believe ancient seagrass growing on the floor of the Mediterranean Sea may be the oldest living organism on the planet.

The researchers say their findings indicate the vast beds of submerged vegetation are most likely at least 100,000 years old. That is nearly 60,000 years older than a Tasmanian plant that currently holds the title of world’s oldest living thing.

Amazing, yet I always though the immortal jellyfish (my logo) was the oldest, with eternal life possible in theory, or mushroom colonies.
What do you think?
What is the oldest then?

im sure once they discover life in vostock lake that will take the new title lol
