After the death of the Brazilian monastery Andasa Kanabaro Lucas, at the age of 116, an 115 -year -old Briton is now the oldest man on the planet, according to Guinness records.

Born in 1909, ETHEL Katerham is even the first woman of British descent to hold the world record longevity since 1987. Then the record was held by 114 -year -old Anna Williams.

The 115 -year -old ETHEL, who prevented the reign of Edward III, lives in a care unit in the Surrey area and attributes longevity to her lifestyle.

“I have done well everything that happened in life, and the beautiful and the bad,” he told the BBC in 2020, adding that he has chosen as an attitude of life to never quarrel with anyone. “I hear and do what I like,” he said.

Ms Katerham has been living in Surrey for 50 years and has acquired three grandchildren and five grandchildren.

“I have returned the whole world and ended up in this wonderful home. Now everyone is falling with the mud on me and they give me whatever I want, “she says.
