The world's oldest living man, 113-year-old Masazo Nonaka of Japan, died at his home - a hot springs inn - on Sunday, local media reported.

Born on July 25, 1905, Nonaka grew up in a large family on Japan's northern main island of Hokkaido, with six brothers and one sister.

In 2018, the Guinness Book of World Records officially recognized Nonaka as the oldest living man after the death of Francisco Nunez Olivera, a Spaniard who passed away more than a month after turning 113.
