John Alfred Tinniswood, the world’s oldest man, died on Monday at the age of 112 at the care home in Southport, England, where he resided. His family confirmed the sad news to the BBC.
Born on August 26, 1912, the year the Titanic sank, Tinniswood was a respected figure, not least for his passion for football, particularly for the Liverpool club. He was also recognized for having held the title of oldest man in the world since April 2024, following the death of Juan Vicente Pérez Mora, a Venezuelan who lived to be 114 years old.
