Walter Breuning, a resident of Montana has been declared as the world’s oldest man by Guinness World Records. Breuning, aged 114 achieved this after Henry Allingham from Great Britain died in 2009 at an age of 113. Breuning, born on 21st September, 1896, celebrated the 114th birthday of his life on last Tuesday.

Breuning was a clerk in the Great Northern Railway for more than 50 years. He lost his wife Agnes in 1957. They did not have any children. Breuning is the 
fourth oldest person in the world and there are three women older to him now. They were born on the same year as Walter Breuning, but the birthdates were earlier.

The birthday party was organized at the Rainbow Retirement Community with around 100 people being present. Breuning also gave a small speech in front of the audiences. When asked, he could not find a year to be the most favorite of his life, but criticized computer as it took away jobs from many.
