How old is yamcha in Dragon Ball Z

He is about 16 in the beginning of DB, and by the end he is about 23. He goes to 42 years old in DBZ. He was born in 733 AD.


Answer 2. There is no way he was born in 733 AD considering the whole DB serious is set in a slight futureistic era considering they have common space travel and flight is a commodity in cars.

It's like clash from the past ( Whole Kung-fu, martial arts way of solving problems ) but it's still futuristic with all the technology that BUlma ( capsulecorp) has made.
