less than the number of 5 year olds I could take

I don't know if this is true since an 85 year old is probably much easier to incapacitate than a 5 year old, and probably not hugely stronger. Plus many 85 year olds won't have any teeth.

I've never spent any time with 85 year old males since I generally don't run across a lot of old people in my everyday life and all of my great uncles/grandfathers died well before reaching 85, but pretty much all of my ~85 year old female relatives have some difficulty just climbing a flight of stairs, and any kind of slip/fall would likely seriously injure them.
