João Marinho Neto longevity recognition

Overview

João Marinho Neto, a farmer from Ceará, Brazil, has been recognized as the world’s oldest man upon reaching the age of 114. His recognition follows the death of British citizen John Tinniswood at age 112.

Neto celebrated his birthday in the municipality of Apuiarés with family, local authorities, and representatives from the LongeviQuest research group. LongeviQuest had previously identified him as the last living man born in 1912. His age has undergone documentary verification to secure his status with Guinness World Records.

Neto resides in a care facility due to vision loss and is supported by a large extended family, including six living children, 22 grandchildren, 15 great-grandchildren, and three great-great-grandchildren.
