Has anyone managed to roll a life later than ~600CE?

Yes, but I definitely think the probabilities are off - the explanation, which I agree with, states "a random birth is far more likely to fall near the present."

But it appears to be drawing much more uniformly from the years than you'd expect given the probability curve (population curve) pictured.

Managed to roll a guy born in 1988 in the eastern US. He hasn’t married yet and he’s still alive.
