336...We Have A New Oldest Man On Planet

With a refreshing attitude.

His name is Henry Allingham, he is 113 years old and as of yesterday he has officially been proclaimed the oldest man alive by Guinness World Records, after the death, also yesterday, of Tomoji Tanabe in Japan.

Mr. Allingham, who fought in the big one, World War One, attributes his longevity to "cigarettes, whisky and wild, wild women ..." in a report by lined Maev Kennedy in the Guardian.co.uk.

His current hobby is sleeping. A lot.
