The world's oldest man just turned 114 — and his 113-year-old 'birthday twin' sent him a card

João Marinho Neto was born on a farm in Maranguape, Brazil, on 5 October 1912 — he worked the fields with his father by age four and raised seven children. Today he turned 114, the world's oldest man, and celebrated with a homemade birthday sign from his pen pal Ken Weeks, Australia's 113-year-old, who sent one right back across the world. Born exactly a year apart, the two are among only three men alive born before the First World War. João's secret to a long life? Surround yourself with good people and keep your loved ones close.
