Jimmy Carter's 100th birthday 

Back in October, the Plains, Georgia, community celebrated Carter's 100th birthday-- marking a milestone that no other president has reached. 

"I always say that I feel that he's going to be the most remembered president in the whole world because he's done so many things — not just for our country, but for the entire world," Presidential Historian Larry Cook previously told 11Alive.
