111岁!他被认定为全球在世最长寿男性→
At 111 years and 224 days old, John Alfred Tinniswood from England has officially claimed the title of world’s oldest living man.
Born in the northwestern English city of Liverpool on August 26, 1912, Tinniswood has lived through two world wars and also holds the record for world's oldest surviving male World War II veteran, according to Guinness. He was born the same year the Titanic sank.
Care home manager Katie Howard told the BBC it was an honor to care for Tinniswood, an "amazing individual with so many stories to tell," who "enjoys reading the paper and listening to the radio."
While Tinniswood, who does not smoke, rarely drinks and has fish and chips every Friday, said the secret to longevity is "just luck," he advised on moderation in life: "If you drink too much or you eat too much or you walk too much; if you do too much of anything, you’re going to suffer eventually.”
Guinness World Records made the announcement on Friday, two days after announcing the death of former title holder Juan Vicente Pérez at the age of 114, a month shy of his 115th birthday.
