World's oldest man : Patience is the key to a healthy life
John Alfred Tinniswood in The Secret of Longevity says that moderation is the key to a healthy life. I have never smoked. No special diet apart from a fish and chip supper once a week. If you keep eating or drinking the same, eventually your body will suffer from it, Tinniswood told the Guinness Book of World Records. Longevity is also luck. You either live a long life or you live a short life. But it is not in your hands, he also humbly mentions.
