Guinness-Recognized World's Oldest Man John Tinniswood Dies at 112

Nov 26, 2024, 12:12 PM

John Alfred Tinniswood, recognized by Guinness World Records as the world's oldest man, has died on November 25, 2024, at the age of 112 in a care home in Southport, England. Born in Liverpool on August 26, 1912—the year the Titanic sank—Tinniswood lived through two World Wars and significant global changes. A World War II veteran, he married his wife Blodwen in 1942, and was an avid Liverpool FC fan throughout his life. In April 2024, he became the world's oldest living man. Tinniswood attributed his longevity to luck, regular exercise, and enjoying fish and chips every Friday. Reflecting on his long life, he once remarked, 'If you drink too much or you eat too much or you walk too much; if you do too much of anything, you're going to suffer eventually,' and 'You either live long or you live short, and you can't do much about it.'
