  The world's oldest man, 112-ear-ld Antonio Todde died on the Italian island of Sardinia. Todde made it into the Guinness Book of Records when he turned 112 last year and wore his crown of “The Oldest Living Man on Earth” with pride and a sense of humor.

  Born in a tiny mountain village in 1889, the same year work on the Eiffel Tower was completed and baby Adolf Hitler took his first breath, Todde seldom left the village. He lived in the same house with his wife of 78 years, Maria Antonia, all his life.

  He witnessed (见证) the two World Wars, a technological revolution and saw the world's population quadruple (四倍) but was untroubled by the passing of the years.

  “His life was very simple but those 100 years, he lived them to the full,” said Mariolina, recalling how he liked to play cards with his friends and go for long walks.

  Todde's life and that of his fellow islanders is the focus of a scientific study.

  A remarkable number of Sardinia's 1.6 million people live through a century. Some 135 people per million live to see their 100th birthday.

  Todde's own family seems a case in point-his tow daughters are 78 and 81 separately and his sister is 98.

  The answer to the often-posed question of just how he managed it was simple for Antonio.

  “Just love your brother and drink a good glass of red wine every day,”he was quoted (引证) as saying when he celebrated his 112th birthday last year.

  “You take one day after the other, you just go on.”
