A Japanese who is the world’s oldest man died at the age of 112. Yasutaro Koide, born on March 13, 1903, died two months before his 113th birthday.
He was recognized by Guinness World Records as the world’s oldest man in August. He used to work as a tailor when he was young. He died early Tuesday at a hospital in Nagoya, central Japan, where he had been treated for chronic heart problems.
He used to say that his secret to a long life was not to smoke, drink or overdo it.
May his soul rest in peace.
