The oldest man was 256 years in the world

In 1933 in obituaries Time Magazine and New York Times reported that at the age of 256 years died Li Ching-Yun, who had already buried 23 wives and 180 trained heirs. It was he really so old and tried to find out the Environmental Graffiti.

The secret of youth Li Ching-Yuen was the fact that he always maintained the peace of mind with its diet consisted of rice and wine. About childhood and adolescence Lee Ching-Yuen survived little information. It is known that he was born in Sichuan Province in China, where he lived until his death. By age 10 Ching-Yun was educated enough, Lee has already visited Kang-soo, Shanxi, Tibet, Annam, Siam and Manchuria, where he collects various herbs. Next, the story of his life is lost ...

At the age of 256 years, Lee was quite cheerful and looked like a typical 60-year-old man. This fact casts doubt on his age. As Lee himself said, he was born in 1736 and lived for 197 years. However, in 1930, Wu Chung-Shin, professor and dean of the University of Minkuo found records confirming that Li was born in 1677, and that the Imperial Chinese Government congratulated him on his 150th and 200th anniversary. Is it possible to forget the date of his birth or the other was Li Ching-Yun. For a long time the oldest person on the ground was considered Jeanne-Louise Kalman, whose age was considered phenomenal - she was 122 years old. She lived in France and died in 1997. This means that if the records have been found by Wu Chung-Shin is correct, then the age of Li Ching-Yun's age exceeds the officially registered more than 130 years. From the history of the Li Ching-Yun's fiction, and we can only guess.
