How old is Deng Linlin?

Answer 1

I don't know how old she really is, but she is definitely not any where near 16 years old. My son is 9 and just lost the same tooth that she is missing.

Deng LinLin does not have a missing baby tooth. If you look at her in this video at 6:55, she has the same gap back then as she does now:

Also, if you take a look at this picture, you can see that her "missing tooth" is in the back. She has for a lack of a better word "crooked" teeth, but not a missing baby tooth.

I still don't know how old she is, but the baby tooth evidence has got to go.

Well, I am not sure many people really know how old she is but her official birth date is listed in several places as April 21 1992. But if you look on Wikipedia, you can see that her birth date can also be found elsewhere of a different date. The gymnasts have to be at least 16 to compete and I am not sure she is.
