The oldest man in the world has passed away at 112 years old.
John Tinniswood was born in Liverpool on August 26, 1912, and became the oldest living man in April.
He died at his care home in Southport, Merseyside, surrounded by music and love, according to his family.
His family expressed gratitude to everyone who cared for him, including staff at the Hollies Care Home and NHS professionals.
Mr. Tinniswood is survived by his daughter Susan, four grandchildren, and three great-grandchildren, making him the fourth-oldest British man in history.
His family described him as intelligent, brave, calm, talented in math, and a great conversationalist.
He moved to the Hollies rest home shortly before turning 100, inspiring staff and residents with his kindness and zest for life.
Earlier this year, he told Guinness World Records that turning 112 felt no different to him.
He mentioned that he didn’t feel his age and attributed his longevity to a laid-back attitude and an active youth.
Mr. Tinniswood enjoyed battered fish and chips every Friday but did not follow a specific diet, stating he ate what was provided.
The oldest man ever was Jiroemon Kimura from Japan, who lived to the age of 116 years 54 days and died in 2013.
