As Riley often says on the show, it's a title no one holds on to for very long. And now, once again, "The World's Oldest Man" has passed away.

Sakari Momoi was a retired educator from Japan who lived to the age of 112. Officials say he died from kidney failure Sunday at a nursing home in Tokyo. According to Fox News:

Momoi was certified by Guinness World Records as the world's oldest man in August 2014, when he was 111.
Another Japanese man, 112-year-old Yasutaro Koide of Nagoya, succeeds Momoi as the world's oldest man, according to the Los Angeles-based Gerontology Research Group.

The current world's oldest person happens to be an American woman, 116-year-old Susannah Mushatt Jones of Brooklyn, New York.
