Dharampal Singh comes from a small village in Uttar Pradesh, India called Gudha. According to what he says, as well as about four official documents that he has, he is 119 years old, since he was born on October 6, 1897.
Maintaining good health at this age is the result of a careful diet, with cow's milk, vegetables and fruits. Abstinence from alcohol, tobacco, butter, fried foods and sugar, he says, helped him stay healthy and physically strong.
To date he has won more than 20 medals in various national and international competitions in his age category, including a gold in the Malaysian championships in 2014!
