John Tinniswood, the world’s oldest man, celebrated his 112th birthday on August 26th. When asked about his secret to long life, he humbly replied that he doesn’t believe there’s a single answer. However, in previous interviews, Tinniswood revealed that he enjoys a varied diet and follows one consistent habit: indulging in fish and chips every Friday. Born in 1912 in Liverpool, England, Tinniswood has witnessed numerous historical events, including World Wars I and II, the Spanish Flu, and the COVID-19 pandemic. Now residing in a care home in Southport, he remains remarkably independent, managing his finances and enjoying daily news updates. He attributes his longevity to moderation in all things, believing that excess in any aspect of life can lead to suffering. While he enjoys a diverse diet, Tinniswood emphasizes that he believes the world hasn’t improved much since his youth, and in some areas, has even worsened.
