- We asked three unique and lovely centenarians what their most valuable life lessons were, and also their regrets.
The conversations that followed were remarkable. They talked about the importance of family, people, relationships and love. Their view on life, as an elderly citizen with a lot of experience is truly an inspiration and motivation. Enjoy the video! And please let us know what your thoughts are!

'' We all have two lives. The second one begins when we realise that we only have one. ''
The most profound statement I have heard in my life...
Who said that (i.e. who is that quote from)? xx
Deep!
Well said 👍
perhaps...unless Jesus Christ is who he said he is... something to consider, anyway.
"I don't have many failures. If I make a cake and it fails, it becomes a pudding."
-Cliff Crozier
@ Stephen Scott - I love the guy!... Cliff Crozier was my old headmaster - a special man indeed
That statement stood out to me too. Wonderful perspective.
Mr. Cliff Crozier passed away at the 12th of March this year. Just one month ago. He will be greatly missed.
@@Noahboy8 He most certainly will be missed. No doubt 17 million people are wiser because of him and everyone in this video, he/they live on through us. That energy is infinite and transfers. My belief at least ❤
He is really funny
"If I make a cake and it fails, it becomes a pudding."
Now that's a life motto.
Stefan agreed
Exactly !
Very wise words
I'm gonna steal that line!
@6:34
" I don't have many failures. If I'm baking a cake and it goes wrong it becomes a pudding ..." . A priceless metaphore for how to live our lives. Thank you.
😍😍
I was like WOW 🤩 🤩
that is the power to put things in perspective,
WOOOOOW!!!!!!
Turns out what happens in life is not what affects our happiness, rather how we react to what happens to us is much more important. How we react is what we are able to control.
I think the healthy, fresh, food is so important, and rare these days. Also air and water.
Notice how healthy they look? No bad arthritis, so healthy immune systems. I bet they all came from loving homes, too.
It’s a shame adults in our society do not value elder people and the wisdom they have accrued throughout their lives.
Thank you, Seniors, for your participation, and thanks to Life Hunters.
"It always pleases me though that I can keep robbing the government with my pension." Legends don't die.
Trophii I know a reggae artist who sings about being a lion... used a very similar pic to your profile pic on an album once. Not that I’m saying YOU STOLE IT ;)
Great memories of great music, thank you... that’s my point is that your pic brings me back many great memories!
Robbing government? 101 years old and still doesn't understand where those money came from... Hope that was a pure sarcastic joke.
I designed it myself, so looks like he might be the one who stole it :D Anyways glad to hear you getting the vibes back^^
Legends NEVER die
who is this singer
I'm a hundred and two...and a half...*childlike smile*
The pure joy.
And when he was using the I pad :)
@@Trajan114 I know it was so super cute
And he's from Denton too, he was repping Denton and Manchester for us Mancs. ☺️😅 I hope they all lived blessed lives to the end. 🙏
And Birkenhead for the scousers aye🤣
Living the THUG LIFE
that first man was looking pretty fresh for a 101 year old!
Russell Morrison , I was thinking the same thing.... lol!
Russell Morrison made me laugh haha the second comment made me laugh too haha
yea
ttMatM a Spring chicken lmao
Russell Morrison my thoughts exactly... No way did he look like he was a hundred, his attitude was ace too.
I started a conversation with an older gentleman at the gym the other day. I like talking to people and have been into the gym for 20 years now. I'm 37. I knew this guy was older but when he told me he had just celebrated his 95th birthday I was shocked. That is by far the oldest person I have seen lifting weights and in such shape. So cool.
He told me his son died at 52 and he outlived his wife. Then he said what I was seriously hoping for. He asked if I would go for a coffee with him sometime. It was literally the cutest thing in the world. He said the following:
"You have no idea how much you made my day by talking to me, thank you."
"When you get to my age there aren't many people left you know."
"Most people just pass you by."
It was heart warming seriously people.
I shared that cool story because as younger people we don't feel the way they do. The world still sees us. Heck, sometimes we get so much attention we want people to actually leave us alone!! lol. I know I do sometimes.
Most cultures hold their elders in very high regard, we should all hold them there.
Try to talk to these lovely people whenever you can. Just say hello if nothing else, you will almost always receive a warm smile.
Cheers
These people inspire me to work harder. This video is so inspirational; I wish I could hug them.
Beautiful 💕
Beautiful 😊story I hope you go for that coffee ☕ your new friend sounds wonderful at the gym 😊😊
Did you ask him what his diet was?
Completely agree with you.
"Nowadays people give up too easily " ... is right .
And are unprepared, not having a clue what makes a good relationship or who they are or what their issues are.
This is the part i AGREE the most!!!!!!!!!!
That's where the "Aight, imma head out." meme comes from!
Yep I agree especially with relationships and with social media
I guess we are just tired of the same old b.s. 💩 🤷♂️
"be independent, but don't be reluctant to ask for help"
Why didn't I ever find him earlier?
Shayaan Morshed this same old lady said she simply wanted a handsome man with good mannerisms. Bruh, if us men had women of that caliper to smash... Life would sure be grand
I always thought: Being an adult doesn't mean to do ALL by himself. But to recognize when help is needed and to learn to ask for it.
uncle iroh vibes
@@cwickwitted look at 10:40, John says here that you've got to keep up with the times. People are different back then and finding the ideal person to settle with will never be easy, but always hope.
i am the 1k like lol
Her father was a war prisoner, she lost her daughter.. And yet she says; “I have always been lucky, I’ve never been unlucky”
Such strong personality and great positiveness. No wonder how she's been living so long.
Its how she accepts things.
so true! exactly her father a pow lost her children and she still says she's lucky.... so resiliant she's adorable
Practicing gratitude does wonders
So true. No pity parties here. Inspiring
Living so long* not lived
"I'm a hundred and two and a half." What a great, positive and humourous outlook they have. Just lovely.
Can you imagine. They lived all threw the 70s,80s and 90s; i know they had a good time.
do you believe in the resurrection of the dead and the kindom of heaven jesus christ promised us?
Well it's strange, because my friend's daughter told me the other day she's 3 and a half, and we all laughed at how cute it is. And of course, when you have only been alive for 3 years, a half a year is a very long time, and quite a big deal.
But it was refreshing to hear a man 99 years older still using the half 🙂
John was my Great Grandfather & he always loved introducing himself with "Hi, I'm John & I'm 104 years old" he really was a special man. I hope to live up to his life one day. We miss him greatly & seeing these comments warms my heart even after so many years. Thank you everyone ❤
Too good
The Czech women says she's never been unlucky meanwhile her father was a prisoner of war and she lost 2 children, very strong spirit!
It's actually inspiring: instead of making yourself a victim and complaining about it, just know that there is always going to be someone in a worse situation than you
there's people who spend most of their time complaining rather than looking for a solution.
Maybe those stuff is lucky to her?
Hitman 4Hire Fuck you, you lifeless bitch!
Her father survived, even after being defeated and captured.
"I don't have many failures. If I bake a cake and I fail, it becomes a pudding." That was so simple yet so beautiful.
fantastic quote and beautiful moment. also agree about how they said "people give up too easily nowadays" and you "have no idea how strong you are" ... all of these people have zero quit in them. very inspiring
RetroBacon It's so beautiful and inspiring
Kind of like the saying that goes, "When life hands you lemons, you make lemonade." Fountains of wisdom these people are!
6672rock When life gives you lemons, oranges are usually close by.
such a great attitude
"I rarely have many failures.
If I'm baking a cake and it fails, it becomes a pudding."
:-)
Forget making lemonade out of lemons, do this
When life gives you cake, make pudding.
6:34 Quote :P
SeanJTharpe yep
I really felt this. I'm 17 now, making plans for my life, wanting to chase money and success, being great and change the world, becoming important in a wider meaning. But when I see such things, when people who have already lived tell me what living really is like, I think I'm completely missing the point: I just want to be happy, and live a happy and fulfilling life. And when I'll be old I think it won't matter if I had been rich or if my life plans had gone right, I will only care about how I really lived my life.
Thank you for sharing your stories, teaching us these life lessons.
Should definitely talk more with my grandparents...
You are a very wise 17 yr old. Never loose sight of your own words said here. I can only add, respect, honesty, consideration and kindness to others is what brings us real happiness.
Nice. I’m 15, and I hope that, at the point of death (if I know I’m about to die, technically. Can’t say I won’t die without knowing I’m about to die, though) I want to have no regrets about my life.
Brother, In this world everything needs money, money can save half of your problems...money can bring you happiness.....People with lot of money used to say this dialogues like 'Money is not everything'
Ask to poor , they will tell you the things than money can do.
Er, the whole time I was watching it, it struck me that they all look quite well off, live in nice homes, in nice locations......so I think you should chase money and success in your younger years, or you won't be living like that once you're retired (unless you are coming into an inheritance at some point). And that is the reality.
@@mmartin7483 Lol, but these elderly people all look well off financially! They're not living on a housing estate in Brixton or Liverpool are they.......
I notice one thing they have in common: optimism!
Tangerine KPopper yes I noticed the same thing
Tangerine KPopper perspective!
I work for the NHS, and some of the most positive and full-of-life people I've met were in their 90s
Its called: Not watching the Fake news.
And active!
No parent wants to outlive their children. This mother who lost both her twins showed us grace and the wonderful enduring side of the human spirit. Bless her.
Clay Tall Stories The laugh though
Clay Tall Stories it was very painful to watch
My parents outlived my brother, that's just life
Leecicle ur 100% right
Clay Tall Stories hearing her share how she still responds openly to her memories and feelings toward her children is so touching.
Wow, 101? Clifford looks like he's at least 70, and he moves well too for his age.
Ohm Neh he is at least 70 mate. Learn your proper grammar!
Ohm Neh Here are non-native englisch speakers as well, so please don't judge their grammar so unpolitely :) I guess that you're making mistakes for example in german or french, too!
Ohm Neh the whiskey is doing its job 😂
I know right, dem English people always thinking that their language is the only native language in the world. They should be grateful we actually speak it so well, considering most of them don't speak a word of the other language, let alone two none-native languages.
Bird He's can be used in place of he is in informal speech
I talked with my neighbor who was 97 years old. He was becoming incredibly frail and I would see him sit outside with his walker. I would join him whenever I saw him outside, and he would talk about his experiences in Poland and being a child prisoner, and his experience in the RAF as a radar operator during WW2, also how he came to the USA and started a family. That man really lived a life that I will never come close to experiencing. He passed away about this time last year and I was really glad that I sat and talked with him. We both share the same first name and heritage, I only knew him for about a year and I miss him.
You're very lucky to talk such a person who is 97years old !! If I would get a chance to talk to an old man I talk about ww2 and the war1 and life at that time !! Some people like Solomon Perel share a precious information about how life was a long back ago !!!
6:35 "I don't have many failures, If I'm making a cake and it fails it becomes a pudding." - It's this mindset which has brought him a long & happy life.
If you make a mistake, then another opportunity will come. There is always something good.
Truth.
Life gives you lemons and make lemonade
Failures are lessons. It is win or learn. Either ways it's a win win.
@@adriandoe1090 wow. so deep
"I don't have many failures. If I'm making a cake and it fails, it becomes a pudding". Thats actually quite a nice way to see life and a nice motto to live by
McSantoryu Ever make mistakes in life? Let's make them birds. Yeah, they're birds now
That can be our new motto! Pure wisdom and light on them. God Bless them.
I was impressed by this saying too
Let's see it as a pudding
McSantoryu yeah I admired his positivity I'm trying to apply this to my life and so far it's been great life is just too short for us to complain or not live it to the fullest
Kind of in the same vein of "If life gives you lemons, make lemonade". An optimistic way to view things.
"I don't have many failures.
if i'm making a cake and it fails it becomes a pudding" - 102 years old Cliff Crozier
The best one
Danil Danils Truly inspiring😢
You can only fail if you make failure an option!
we would never test a delicious brownie if somebody in the past hadn't failed into make a cake
Danil Danils a good one indeed😊
I agree! That was the best line and the complete truth. Why do we always feel like such failures when things don’t go exactly as planned. Everything happens for a reason. We may not know why at the time but if we don’t lose hope we can figure out why.
As a 92 year old man... I love this video... I am American but I understand these folks very much...
Hello Nathan, hope you are doing well. Love from Dilly in London England xx
Thank you very much, sir
I pray that you also reach this age.

A simple advice on how to take life, if this doesn't 'go well' per say it just means it was meant to go another way. It's all a matter of perspective.
I'll truly sleep a wiser person tonight
Dante Mungai just what I needed
That's truly word of wisdom, bless him.
Read the book “the noticer” it’s about life experiences first chapter tells a story about how an old guy saves a young poor man by telling him life is all a matter of perspective.
glad to make that 1k 👍
"...if something strikes/afflicts you, then do not say
'If (only) that I were/(did) such and such',

When the man took out his iPad it was the cutest thing
Yeah, that's not patronizing and demeaning at all.
It's called adapting to the times and making the best of everything you can. People that don't adapt die younger. I wish my father and grandfather who were both tech junkies had lived to see the Internet.
That has a big USB port. So it's probably not an iPad. Though it is a tablet.
Time stamp please
@@thescaredydog1375 6:32
I’m 25 years old and I’m always worrying about the future and regret a lot of my past but watching this has moved something in me that was so beautiful and i’m thankful. I’ll keep this video near so i can look to when I’m feeling down.
Same here. And I wish some day I can look back to life like they do. It's a really wholesome video 😊
You are young so a little free advice, try being kind and do your best. U will have no regrets. Try being quiet to those who hurt you or reply gently.
never get into debt, do without. there is so much you really don't need, live in the country and grow your own food. and love nature and animals are your best friends!

“When an elder dies a library burns to the ground.” -African Proverb

Sir Lemon imagine someone who's been in prison since the 40s or 50s and getting out now.
grant Diggs yep
Sir Lemon damn...
Sir Lemon that must be weird
Thats the reason why they dont kill people in prison anymore. Because some of them are innocents.
I hope to become 100 years old, and when someone age 70 comes up to me, I'll go "hello young man". That would crack me up!
Oh my gosh 🤣
When I get old I'm gonna call all the guys "sonny" and the girls "doll"
The old ones are the best.
Imagine - if you were thirty they would have just been born
They look healthier, hell even younger, than a number of 65/75+! Year olds I have come across.
look how happy that first little old-man was saying how much he gets off with screwing Uncle Sam on his pension, loloo
“I don't have many failures
If I'm making a cake and it fails it becomes a pudding”. What a powerful things to say. It hits hard
Imagine being in your 30s in 1945 and living so long that you can order things online on an iPad
My god imagine how much he's seen. How much he's watched the world change. It boggles the mind.
Michel Schweinsberg me too !!!
The teenage Casual people always say things like that .. we always think things are speeding up, but are they quite? Maybe not from the 40s but someone from the 60s I think would be actually quite disappointed by the level of dubsequnt development particularly in the transport sector .. an I pad is pretty decent tool but many of those people might have expected flying cars.
We are nowhere near that. Also the western growth rate is considerably lower than in the post war era
Or samsung galaxy tab
I'm in my thirties and grew up without a computer. I really hope to see a similar mind boggling change...

I love how delighted that one guy was by his iPad and Tesco online ordering.
that was so adorable!
that was just a flex by him to show that he can use an ipad at his age :p
Waw.. how dumb..
That was the cutest part of the whole video.
I’m like that nowadays when I finally find a “slot” .
Cliff walked more rapidly than I can. Seems all of them shared one thing: Loving parents.
I thought the same
Unfortunately, this is what i dont have. So, i dont expect to live long. Actually, i dont want to.
@@adekxii, what about your peers, friends and alike? I don't agree that loving parents is the key. It's a variable, but life has MANY of those.
in the bible says honor your mother and father to be happy and live many years on earth
Break the cycle, mate. I know it's hard, but if you decide to start a family, you can become the parent you never had.
Stay strong!
"If I'm making a cake and it fails, it becomes a pudding." These are words to live by
It looks like the main trick to get to 100 years old is optimism

No eating healthy is #1
The third guy seemed so happy reading off his grocery list, I couldn't help but giggle when he turnt his iPad to the camera and smiled.
to think he saw the complete progression from transistor radio to the slow climb up to the ipad and his first thought is let me show you how i do my shopping on this
Yeah! He's still modern!
3rd guys from Denton, Manchester! My home town! Right next to Stockport! 👍
Just Some Thuggy Penguins beautiful
Just Some Thuggy Penguins omg yeeees i wanted to laugh with him and give him a huge hug
Clifford living alone in his own house, walking with that speed and posture at 101 is an inspiration.
Be honest. You didn’t search for this, but you stayed because of these three wonderful souls💜
Yes xD
Indeed
I thought I would watch 2 mins and then leave!
absolutely! :3

7:12 "I think nowadays people give up too easily". Never heard anything more true
Gabriella - let's give it a try lol
Ugh... 😔
Maybe true or maybe people put up with a lot mores shit and we are more confident not to settle nowadays
Very true
True..
I was about 9 years old at a penocostal church. An there was this old world war 2 veteran he was 90 something. An at that time i dressed like a soldier cause i wanted to be a soldier when i got older . When church was over i walked up to him an saluted him an he started reaching in his pocket to hand me something . But his hands were shaking too much. I always wondered what he was gonna hand me. Godbless him i know hes in heaven now maybe ill find out one day when i see him in heaven what he wanted to give me .
The guy with the iPad was so cute when he was showing his tesco order. The look on his face when he said Shepherds Pie gives me life.
Sarah he looked as happy as teenager ordering stuff from amazon
Sarah Seriously so adorable!! ❤️
Sarah You're pretty 😘
creep
It's so cool seeing a person who's over 100 years old holding an iPad. It makes me think about someone the cool stuff I might get to see if I make to be an elder.
Imagine being 70 and living another 30 years.
imagine these popos taking History 101 : )
It goes quickly. Or at least that's what I imagine.
Time flies when you’re that old
@@secular8887 when your young you wish your life away, I bet it's the opposite as we get old.. I'm 33 n I suffer sometimes with awful anxiety n depression, I've often wished I could die. Lifes a journey, it's yours to plan

I think most of our grandparents are like that, I mean my grandma married in her teen age too, and stay with my grandpa untill he died in 2005,, I often see my grandma holding on my grandpa picture before she sleeps, untill she left us on March 2020

I'm 22 years old, and I know it's still early and young, but I've gotten advice from a ton of people that I have either grown up with or people I've met while working or just out and about. The biggest piece of advice I can give, is this: "As long as you give your heart to someone that needs it, you are doing good in the world. It may be small, but it makes a huge impact."
Good on you for taking the advice. Make the best of everyday, your life is still full of adventures, Hope you have a wonderful life 🙂
Love this statement. Thank you for sharing!
"Be as independent as you can, but don't be afraid to ask for help when you need it", this one is so thru
The problem with the elders in my care is not them being afraid to ask for help, they have too much pride to ask - super frustrating😢😢😢
I had to like to avoid “666” likes.
No one are independent.
I'm 51 and use a cane occasionally because my leg gives out. Recently bought an electric scooter so that I may enjoy life. I'm not embarrassed by it anymore than one that uses a wheelchair for mobility. In my opinion you can complain about your physical disabilities or you can find a way to cope and enjoy life. Last I knew complaining about an issue solved nothing but actions do.
Every time I ask for help I get introuble for doing so
6:00 "Tesco is coming tomorrow!" That smile makes is so endearing.

I come from Poland and my own grandparents were extremely uptight, rarely smiling people. I got married with a Japanese man and all the elders in his family are the exact opposite. I never knew someone can be over 90 and this happy, this joyful, this social, this nice. I'm surely glad to become part of his family. Seems people don't really change with age much. They just are who they are.

The look on his face when he was showing off his online shopping. So happy, carefree and wholesome...
How it always should be!
He’s so proud and cheerful, it’s amazing 🙂
I was genuinely impressed by his internet skills!
Its like a child who just discover a new way to play a toy

2) The third man - John W. Denerly passed away at the age of 104 in December 2018
3)I couldn't find any data about the 2nd woman - Emelia Harper on the internet, so it's okay to assume that she is still around, she'd be 107 now
thanks for letting us know
Maria Khan I see a potential career in this for you , not a job offering just impressed
Simon Lupinski that's such a nice comment!
Simon Lupinski thanks a lot for that beautiful comment!
RIP
Age is a mentality. I've seen 50 year old guys who think life is over, and these centenarians just keep going on happy with life.
Some people with mentality who like to put their bitterness on others believe life gets over if you 30 and not married lol
I feel like dong dong and I'm only 48 😂. Single, stressed, with a little bunch or regrets, bunch of relationship failures...
How my dad and uncle are. Both in mid 50’s and complain how old and disabled they are. I never want to be like those guys. Both have the mentality of everything happens to them and it’s everyone’s fault they weren’t successful but there own. Sad as fuck.
After the video you can clearly see that 50 is still young 😂. And we must learn to leave day by day

I used to work in a nursing home, I asked a 103yo the secret to a long life. He told “don’t forget to breath!”. I laughed at the time but it has multiple layers really.
That’s true! Literally of course, then….take time to smell the roses, take a moment before you react, etc. Breathing is also the way to inner connectedness, pranayama. I’m sure you could dig up five more meanings.
@@christinasophiapaterno9022 those are pretty much the same meanings I put into it. Although to be honest I think he only actually meant the literal one, he was a bit of a joker.

All this romantic sentimental sh...., that doesn't help nobody, just take care of yourself (exercise, no excess weight, smoking, alcohol) and hope you don't die of cancer on an early age. Welcome to life. There is no specific manual around to get to a 100, so, it's an unhealthy goal. And if you do want to eat fatty foods, smoke and drink vodka, go ahead and enjoy it.

Tears at the end. There's so much to learn from older people. But mostly their smile and positive outlook! They sound happy! I'm 72 and I'm still looking to "change the world" and complete my artistic pursuits. My motto is " Never give up!" God will do the rest! ✝️💜
I love how they casually mention illness, war, poverty and other tragedies while firmly maintaining that they had truly wonderful lives. Clearly there is power in positivity.
Yes absolutely. It’s so easy to get defeated in modern society with an influx of opinions
There is a lot of power needed to be positive always. I think that power comes from thought that everything is temporary and will vanish soon. Woshhhhh
The older you get the less you see all the hardships as bad and you see life in a much clearer view. Hopefully by the time we are their age we have learned patience and kindness is a better way to live not bitter and angry.
@@Slax15 Well, let's say you are 30 years old and living in a western country (Europe, USA, Australia, etc.) The conditions when you are 70 or 80 or more will not be the same as they are for the old folks of today. The old people in this video appear to have great living conditions, pleasant and comfy and with everything they need. Will it be the same for you and me?
The determination in them is strong
The comment section is so lovely for a change !!!
Giulia Marta Corti haha I was thinking the same thing :)
you cant be negative when its like this, so close to death
Nazree well said
Giulia Marta Corti Must say you are absolutely beautiful Giulia!
Unlike your ugly fqace when you become over 40 yo!
"I'm 102... and 1/2". I smiled so largely when he said that
Dont get it please explain
I think maybe because it's a cute thing children often do. Often excited to seem older they add on the half.
exactly.
YesIt'sMe there was something beautifully innocent about it that makes you wanna smile
YesIt'sMe And the fact that with so many years, what a half year means?
that's the attention to the little details that we often don't have or give... even if we got more reasons to do it than elder ones!
Crazy to imagine the musical history they lived through, how many changes in style there was
Right!! Imagine going to classical jazz to the music nowadays. Omy!
from the Beatles to BTS
From jazz to phonk that's insane haha
l worked in a nursing home and looked after a 104 years old lady and when l finished to dress her, all the time she said to me '"ok now you can go and help all the young one (from 75 to 90) (France)
Lmao funny girl
Bahahahaha...cute!😁

"I don't have many failures. If I'm making a cake and it fails, it becomes a pudding"
I think this is a motto everybody should be adapting, especially creative types.
I loved this one too 👏 it might not be what you expected but it can still be good and you'll have learnt a new lesson
There is definitely a difference between mistakes and failures. I am an expert on both.

Life is 10 percent of what happens to us. And 90 percent of the way we respond to it. A great attitude is a game changer.

"We did have problems but we got through them and I think nowadays people give up too easily "
That's because there was opportunity back then. Actual opportunity. Now, there are so many government regulations, and lies through media (COVID, lockdowns, etc.) that the whole world has gone nutty. People are absolute phonies nowadays, as well. No one wants to get out of their car. I wanted to set up a food truck on the busiest part of the road in the city; not one car stops to pass. I see others trying all of the time - but no one gets out of their car because they're scared that a "virus" is going to get them; meanwhile, they can't name one person who has died from this thing... It is either 5G, or IN the vaccine. THEN, we will possibly see numbers truly go up. Plus, who would even want to participate in a system that is so corrupt, right down to the bone... It is a sickening world, and the coward Luciferians are in control of every aspect of our lives right now.
@@StaalRulz2010 my father died because of the virus. There are millions more. Why do you keep your eyes closed?
Margaret Kaufman Even Alex Jones makes more sense than you. You’re just bitter that people care about their safety instead of stopping by your food truck. Just cause you don’t know a person that has died from the virus doesn’t mean that the people that have lost loved ones are bluffing. Do you truly believe that everyone is “blinded by the truth” and you’re the only enlightened one to see that it is truly the Luciferians that are mind controlling us? Stop relying on info wars and other similar sites for your information.
@@blacklungsanji3 I don't rely on that, brother. I pray that we are all protected from this evil. I do know the tests are very flawed & hospitals need money to stay afloat - so, what to do?
That's the whole point about marriage, it's just a reason to keep trying, to not give up so easily.
3:55 im 102, and a half. That beautiful big smile of his god bless him he looked like a young toddler again. Made me cry. So beautiful
He doesn’t even look like he’s 101. He must’ve been a healthy person and active back in the day .
Yeah,they still look young
90% of it is genes.
Most people who live long are always like that to be honest. Take Queen Elizabeth II for example. She's not a centenarian but she is 94 years old which is old for someone born at her time, but even so, she looks like in her early 70s or so thanks to her healthy lifestyle.
And he thinks and talks very clearly, amazing
He really looks only 60 years old
Imagine looking back and say "I've done eveything i wanted" #goals
What about making another goal :>
"I think nowadays people give up too easily"
Yes sir, unfortunately.
Arguably the biggest and most valuable lesson out of this video. I am 28 and the current generation is completely out of depth when it comes to problems in life. I hope I have the strength to follow his advice when bigger problems eventually come my way.
ucanbrome ifudontknwme 500th thumbs up👍
Hang in there bud. Everybody learns at a different pace. Don't focus on others and everyday just try to be better than you were yesterday, and as the old man suggested 'don't give up easily'. Good Luck!!!
I think it's not a matter of "too easily". We don't think about "too easily". It's tough for us too. But we just give up. If it doesn't work, we give up. Life is different now, different culture. Too many choices. Doesn't work? Try another thing.
Benevolent I am stubborn as they say. I don't really give up, and never feel like I should. But society has twisted the minds of a lot of women. Have fun, always have options, then if you persist there's a chance you'll look unattractive. Unfortunately I still don't give up. And am too forgiving. Society looks at me with pity but I refuse to change for this world. I'm happy this way, and playing games like that has never been me. I know I'll be good enough for somebody someday. Young fella over here
Man, those people are looking so good for their age. Seeing their smile in these times is also quite heartwarming.
No drama or nothing. They just see life as it is.

"And nowadays people give up easily.."
How true
Very true
i hate how true this is in our generation. There is always hope. never give up
The first man, Cliff… I can’t believe he’s 101! I would have said late 70s! Still as intelligent and sharp as ever, I hope he’s doing well still 💗
Sorry to break the bad news, but he passed away😭
When the man talked about how he regretted refusing his fathers ride home got to me :(
Army😢
Me too..
Suga Min yoongi walks like him 😂😂😂
Ani videos I’m army too
It made me cry and I didn’t even plan on crying today😭
My job involved working with elderly people ..the one thing most of them said is that they wish they didn't care so much about what other people thought about them in their younger years. So true.
I worked at a nursing home and I really enjoyed the conversations with the elderly, so much wisdom and great advice. Some of my favorite memories are from that job, it didn’t even feel like a job most days ❤️
"If not now, then when?"
So true....its made my life miserable...my husband only cares about what people think
@@christineelginnan3570 So sorry to hear this..he will realise hopefully that those who are nearest and dearest are the ones who truly matter. .and genuinely care.
Wishing you all the best.💐
I would imagine that, and worrying in general. I'm 52 with a good family and life and "still" get bogged down a bit by things I can't control that I thought would be easier by this age. (But Working On That) My 2 grandmothers were amazing, one born 1-11-11 and the other Jan 23, 1913 and lived to 97 and 98, and I never heard either complain even once. That was a very solid generation!
"i don't have many failures. if im making a cake and it fails it becomes a pudding"..

I'm glad i searched for this comment before posting it myself. Awesome quote!
Mr. Crozier passed away in 2020. What a lovely soul. 💐
legend never die 💕
Sorry for your loss!
" I can live happily ever after because of my lovely memories."
Best Line Ever!
VERY POWERFUL WORDS...WE DIE, BUT OUR MEMORIES STILL ECHOES WITHIN OUR SOUL, THATS WHY ITS IMPORTANT TO BE GOOD AND KIND AT ALL TIMES. A BAD MAN OR WOMAN IS ALREADY IN HELL........
That's a wonderful sentimental line yes so trued indeed. However, MANY people through out the world have horrific lives where they've had to suffer with hurt and pain mentally and physically most of their lives which this line and thought could never be applied to. I myself have many SAD memories and when I think of most of my past I always cry. I have regrets and always wonder that if I had made a different choice and maybe better choices would I be where I'm at today? So I'm sorry but this line/thought is wonderful for people who have lived wonderful positive lives and doesn't apply to the many thousands who have gone through hell and back or lived very sad lives without a choice in the matter. Still ... these people are an inspiration to all and my hat goes off to them. It's all in the kind of lives we are blessed with and how we lived it but most of all the GENES.
*gets dementia*
The man with the iPad is so precious with his big smile “this is my internet” 😭❤️
He's laughter is infectious!! "Dear old me"
yes, grandpa is flexing his tech skills..:)
He has this mischievous look about ordering the pie. I died hahah so precious!!
Give me flowers when I'm alive, not when I'm dead. This is what my mother told me.
I dont understand why males want to receive flowers, literally or metaphorically
Eren Yeager
Flowers usually are used as some way to express love, if you don’t want flowers it’s similar to say that you don’t want love, so i agree with you
Like my mom , always told me come to visit me when I m alive ( going to back home to visit her ) not when I died
@@derkar6449 He never said he didnt want flowers. He said he didnt want them when hes dead, which is a pretty good point. Whats the point of flowers if you arent alive to experience them? Might as well not give them at all, or buy the entire stock of flowers in the world and give it to them, but thats kinda overkill so nah diary free coconut milk water cheese bye
Potassium Sage
Yea, i did write that because of the first reply of this comment, and i agreed with y’all
I’m only 48 years old. Life has taught me humility. Life has taught me one thing and one thing only: to be humble. And it’s been a very painful life lesson to learn.
Bro your name 💀
Your username isn't very humble 😂
Only? lol
@@donkey3187 what a douchey thing to say
@@Dave-sr2vu How so? 48 is no spring chicken.
He moved like he’s 80 holy moly he can walk perfectly fine it’s crazyyy
my grandpa is 75 and he can barely stand up... these seniors are truly spectacular...
@lucas gonkov 😂😂
It's because you never stop moving. Lots of folks get old and think it's time to stop moving cause they think they are "old"
My grandma is in her 80's and still can jog, hike and get around easy
@@mohammedneisi2919 My grandpa is 76 and just the other day he was on a ladder probably 10-15 feet up cutting a branch off a tree. (With a hand saw) And after that he mowed the lawn, (With an automatic push lawn mower) and after that he came inside to have lunch and watched the stock market. (Or the news)
Alex Garcia exactly my grandpa couldn’t talk couldn’t move at the age of 60 he was perfectly fine and all of a sudden that happens and he passed away sadly
"If I fail to bake a cake it becomes a pudding!" Words to live by!! Always see the positive side of life!
When I failed to make a Yema candy, it became Dulce de Leche.
"Yema is a type of custard candy made from egg yolks and condensed milk."
"Dulce de Leche is prepared by heating sweetened condensed milk."
If life gives you lemons, make lemonade from them!

Best advice
One thing they all have in common: POSITIVITY
Also HAPPINESS
also their being over 100 you twat
Murtaza Hussain ...another thing they seem to have in common is money. And having money buys health care.
You aren’t likely to find 100 plus year old homeless / poor people on here.
Stress and worry can make it difficult to keep a positive point of view. A person would have to have quite extraordinary mental and emotional powers to do so.
Perhaps these people do have such powers.
Well, good for them.
I can imagine that mere mortals with human frailties might come away from this video feeling worse wondering why they haven’t been able to transcend the pain and loss and disappointments that have battered them.
@@renzo6490 absolutely i agree they would've had money as well, but I think that they must've faced difficulties in their lives but they stayed postive and happy in those times
yes!!!
If this video didn't affect your heart, deeply, you need help. I feel as if I was hugged by each one of them just by listening!! Bless their hearts!!
I just turned 20 and i am upset cause i haven't done anything yet, but these people have such positive mindsets. I hope you all have a great life ahead.
I am on my way to 29. I am finally starting to learn that I am capable of doing the things I always thought were out of reach. It is not too late for me. It is definitely not to late for you. Good luck, and do not let fear stop you. Failure is much better than putting off your dreams for a decade. (Note: i haven't seen vid yet, so I can be sounding like a fool in this message... oh well!)
@@erichoselton5340 With 36 now I find one of the hardest things is to keep your dreams alive, to even remember what your dreams are that you're fighting for. In the pursuit of your dreams you can so easily get lost and head unknowingly in the wrong direction... It's a maze without a map. Sometimes you get lost and need to step back to the last crossroad, try another way.
@Hmm Ok. I'll just say that you have a lot of time on you hand don't sit around watching Netflix and shit. If you plan on doing something put you 100% into it and never blame others for the mistakes you make. Try different things don't follow the heard. Remember if you don't succeed you always gain experience there is no failure in life is what I believe.
@@erichoselton5340 man I loved the last line. I am gonna follow it.

Lycidas never take common sense for granted...a lot of folks don't have it for whatever reason...on the flip side of this assuming things is a sign of complaisancy, hmm?
Crazy how babies and old people are similar in the sense of their mindset of how carefree most of them are and enjoy the simplest things and innocent
Yes indeed...dust to dust...between that is your life.
Wehere323 Absolutely. Like my father always says: When you’re born, you’re being taken care of and wearing diapers. The same goes if you live to an old age.
They are also both similar in the sense they are toothless and always shitting on themselves! 😂 (It's a good-natured joke)
Nursing homes and daycare should be combined. The children learn wisdom, the aged absorb new life.
True. It seems weird to see how happy they can be. But I guess it's a good thing. I kinda envy them.
I shed a few tears when Emelia talked about her children. I can't imagine outliving my daughter, it was bad enough saying goodbye to my Mum. Bless her, I hope she continues to live happily for a while longer. Sorry to hear the other two have since passed away 😢😭
there is nothing to feel sorry about
