World's Oldest Man Dies at 112

The world's oldest man, 112-year-old Todde, who swore the

secret of his longevity was a daily glass of red wine, died overnight

on the Italian island of Sardinia, relatives said on Friday.

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.

" He was lucid to the very end. " relative lina Todde told

Reuters. " He was always joking that he was going to live to 130.

Whenever we had friends round everyone was made to drink to his

health. Red wine, of course. "
