Avoiding Chasing Women Key To Long Life, World’s Oldest Twin Brothers Reveal by SCHOOLBUOY(m): 10:09am On Aug 23, 2015 |
Eating in moderation, drinking a glass of good wine
every day and avoiding chasing women are the
secrets of a long life, Belgians Pieter and Paulus
Langerock, the world’s oldest living twin brothers,
say.
Born on July 8 1913, the brothers have lived
together for most of their lives and until this day
barely leave each other’s side, sharing a room at
their nursing home just outside the Belgian town of
Ghent.
After their long careers as court magistrates in the
middle of the 20th century, the besuited 102-year-
olds prefer speaking French and being addressed
as “Pierre and Paul.”
Both enjoy a glass of wine every day. “Get us a
Bordeaux, but a good quality one,” Paulus tells his
nurse at the Ter Venne retirement home into which
they moved three years ago, only then giving up
their own house.
Neither of them married, disapproving of each
other’s choice of potential life partner over the
years.
“Yes, Paulus is my best friend. We’re always
together,” Pieter said.
While they are the world’s oldest living twin
brothers, they have another three years to go to
break the record of U.S. brothers Glen and Dale
Moyer, both of whom reached 105.
Paulus says he does not care.
“When we were 85 we went to the doctor and he
told us: ‘Don’t think you’ll be living to 100.’ Well, I
never really wanted to be this old.” (REUTERS)
