PHOTO: World’s Oldest Man from Japan Dies at the Age of 112

The world’s oldest man, Sakari Momoi, has died in Japan at the age of 112. Momoi, born months before the Wright brothers made their first successful flight, passed away late on Sunday, said the official at Saitama City, north of Tokyo, where he had lived for many years.

The supercentenarian, recognised as the world’s oldest male at the age of 111 last year, died of kidney failure in a care home in Tokyo.

– May his soul rest in peace.
