This is ridiculous.
The oldest verified male who ever lived reached 116. The second and third oldest ever died at 115. There are a further 13 males documented to have reached the age of 113-114.
Claiming to be a nearly 120 year old male is not even remotely close to credible or possible.
It would be like if I said I ran a 3 minute mile or was 10 feet tall.
This is the kind of crap that the Daily Mail and other yellow journalists print.

II know his popularized age claims as relevant to his running were made when he was 119 and 120 years old, but if he was born in 1897, at the time of this writing, he would not be 120, but 124, almost 125, which would not only make him the oldest marathon runner in known history, but also the oldest person in known history. Is there any indication that he is even still alive? -- Don Ecchi ( talk) 22:49, 16 November 2021 (UTC)
