I found a different version of how Tiberius dies in the Slovak version of the Wikipedia page where it says he actually died at age 78:
"Recent years (31 - 37)
Sejanova affair Emperor Tiberius very depressed. His closest friend and collaborator betrayed him. Who could have in this situation now believe? Tiberius even more bitter, closed to each other, and thus even more isolated from the outside world. Plan prepared his return to Rome, and public life thus finally collapsed. The State has continued to manage the written instructions, but it was the August policies that ensure government in the realm of smooth. Tiberius according to some reports, he spent his time sexual perversion. It also deepened the paranoia and suspicion of others. Long hours spent alone, grieving over the death of his son Druso. That's who came to the throne after his death, did not care too much. It does not place such importance to his father Augustus. It's mainly for his overall disappointment and lack of interest in the outside world in the last years of his life. Predsalen but counted on the future of the empire. Do it face to be erected by his two grandsons, Gaius Caligula (son germanica) and Tiberius Gemellus (Druse son).
Tiberius died quietly in his villa in the village of Misenum 16th 37th March of the year He was just 78 years and five months. There are rumors that the aging Emperor Caligula had murdered. There were, however, discovered evidence. However, this idea seems quite realistic considering Caligulovu depravity. The level of unpopularity Tiberius at lower and higher social classes in this period reached enormous proportions. This is confirmed by the fact that after transporting his body to the Roman senate refused to give him divine honors and the streets filled with people shouting'' Tiberius to the Tiber ''. There he is throwing the bodies of criminals. Mark Tiberius as criminals is more than presumptuous. His position in the capacity of emperor empire was from the very beginning very neprajné. Augustus, although he left to look blooming empire, whose power is second to none, but the truth was far different. Augustus expensive policy is almost completely empty treasury. A giant so what was then the Roman empire can not do without financial support. Although Roman legions woke fear in their enemies, but also with fear woke Tiberius. He does not have enough money to pay their pay. Thus the legions could ever go to Rome itself, which, as already mentioned, and really happened. Tiberius was fortunately able uprising own troops push without any significant impact on the operation of the law itself. Tiberius, however, still need to raise money to maintain internal order.But rejected the proposed general tax increase, as confirmed by his statement:'' The good shepherd may shear his sheep, not skin flayed from them''. Unfortunately, the people that he will not add to the good and to stop blaming him more games and all major buildings in the kingdom. Tiberius did so because of the enormous financial demands. Conversely top sector companies have alienated especially hostility and opposition to the introduction of the luxury tax." - http://sk.wikipedia.org/wiki/Tiberius_Caesar
There's some really shady edit's I think that went on on wikipedia without me noticing. The danger is anybody can edit out any article they want whenever they want however they want. One of the problems is I never used to research much outside of Wikipedia. I'll probably have to take a trip to the library to try to research some books.
Edit: I did some major re-editing of the Tiberius Wiki Page and had this certain picture removed. It should look better, I might do some re-editing to it though later on.
