Watch | Holocaust survivor, 112, named world’s oldest man

One-hundred twelve-year-old Holocaust survivor, Israel Kristal, has been recognized as the world's oldest living man. Born in Poland in 1903, Kristal has endured more than most people. His mother died when he was seven. His father was drafted into Russia's army and died during the first World War. And then during World War Two, Kristal lost his wife at the Auschwitz death camp... although he survived, and later moved to Israel. His son Haim says overcoming the hardships made his father a fighter.
