Secret to Long life- Newly crowned world’s oldest man reveals habit that has kept him thus far

The world’s oldest living man, John Tinniswood, from Britain, has recently been recognized at the remarkable age of 111, following the passing of the previous titleholder, Juan Vicente Pérez Mora.

Tinniswood, a great-grandfather residing in a care home in Southport, Merseyside, attributes his longevity to some unconventional habits, notably his tradition of indulging in fish and chips every Friday.

According to reports from The Sun, the World War Two veteran firmly believes in the principle of moderation in all aspects of life and emphasizes the importance of staying active rather than remaining sedentary.

Tinniswood’s family, acknowledging his modesty, shared that he is taking his newfound status with a sense of humility. They expressed immense pride in him, highlighting his role as a cherished father, grandfather, great-grandfather, and friend, while also extending gratitude to his caretakers. Born in 1912, Tinniswood has witnessed significant historical events, including two world wars and the recent Covid pandemic.

He spent much of his professional life working as an accountant for Shell and BP before retiring in 1972.

Having surpassed the age of 108, Tinniswood became the oldest known living man in the UK, even having the honor of meeting the late Queen Elizabeth. He received a special birthday card from King Charles and Queen Camilla on his most recent birthday and looks forward to celebrating his 112nd birthday on August 2nd of this year.
