[TheCanadiandrome]

The world’s oldest living man and the third-oldest man in recorded history has celebrated his 115th birthday on Thursday. But the world’s oldest living man, Jiroemon Kimura of Kyoto, is not technically the world’s oldest living person.

Kimura lives with his eldest son’s 83-year-old wife and the 59-year-old wife of his grandchild. He has 14 grandchildren, 25 great-grandchildren and 13 great-great-grandchildren.


For 38 years, Kimura worked at a post office before switching careers to become a farmer, which he was until he was 90 years old.

Kimura told that eating small portions of food has been his secret to longevity. He needs help to eat and get out of bed each day.

all i can say is woah!
