Tomoji Tanabe — the oldest man in world — is dead at 113
Born in 1896, he died last Friday, June 19, 2009 at his home on the island of Kyushu in southern Japan.
A statement by the city of Miyakonojo on Kyushu noted that Tanabe's favorite meals were fried shrimp and miso soup with clams.
The statement added that he drank milk, avoided alcohol, did not smoke and read the newspaper every morning.
If that's what it takes, I should live forever.
