Pop Japan

The world's oldest man dies in Japan at the age of 113. Masazo Nonaka was born on July 15, 1905, and resident of Hokkaido - Japan's northern island. According to the Guinness World Records, he spent his time eating cakes, reading newspapers and watching TV shows. The supercentenarian claimed that eating sweets and bathing in hot spring enabled him to reach an age beyond 100.  On the other hand, Masazo's daughter said that living a non-stressful life contributed to his longevity.

Before him, two supercentenarians made a record - Jeanne Calment of France,  aged 122 years and 164 days and Jiroemon Kimura, aged 116 years and 54 who died in 2013.
