Man do I ever feel old now!

I grouped the decades but I would say any year the in the 1960's and before is old.

It just depends on your perspective. When I was mid 20s, I thought someone who is late 30s is old. Now that I have reached 39, I don't think I am old. Not at all. It's relative anyway.

At 71, I consider myself older, but I never think of myself as 'old'.

I ski, I cycle, I play hockey (a couple of the guys in my pickup are 1/3 my age), I drum, and I still do a bit of construction work.

Age is just a number.

yep!

When I was 24 two guys about 20 yelled over to me, “Sir do you the time?” And when I was 25 a 21 year old girl said to me, sheesh you are over the hill now.

When you hit 55, you're officially old. I've felt that way for decades now.

All I know is it goes faster and faster.

I can still remember sitting on a couch, having a great time, doing my thing and suddenly realizing that I will never have times like those young days again. I think this was in my early 30's.

I'm thankful may parents are still alive, they were born in '43 and '44. I was born in '78 and the youngest.

I'm feeling the old age with regards to injuries from work taking forever to recover, yet still doing my job anyway.

Personally I will feel old at 50. If I make it.

But it depends on what you're talking about. I feel like that clip was asking these hockey players "what is old" based on athletic ability, and that's totally different.

Most of them say 80's, which has been trendy for a while now. I thought the 80's was super cheesy, and the 90's were my days.

But looking back, wow a lot of weird cool stuff did happen in the 80's. A very transitional decade I guess. But I didn't like that decade because what's a pre-teen boy getting out of the 80's other than awesome cartoons and Nintendo?
