No.
191
EDIT: 191 is not his age. It refers to something completely different.

Matti Nykänen then? Maybe he jumped 191m wide. If I am right someone_else should have a go though; he deserves it.

Nykänen is right! His personal record is 191 meters (Planica 1985, world record at the time), he has won 5 Olympic medals (4 of them gold, 3 gold in 1988, as well as loads of other medals), and his life today is a complete mess, poor chap.  You and s_e decide who’s go it is.

I did not need to look him up because he is an inside joke in our family. My father never got his name right during his active career and always called him "Nykämeni"., which was a constant source of laughter among us kids.

That depends on whether you mean birthplace or nationality.
