After this, he was admitted in a Hospital; but too much late. He died very young, at the age of 42, as a consequence of his obesity.

It was a woman. Her name was Jeanne Louis Calment. She was French. She was born in 1875, and she died in 1997. She lived 122 years and 164 days!! As you can see in this photo, she looks really old. How did she live so much time? Look at her face. She had a happy gesture. And, as everybody knows, happiness is one of the secrets for a long life.
