Walter Breuning (September 21, 1896 – April 14, 2011) was an American supercentenarian. He was the last known surviving man who was born in 1896. Breuning is the oldest undisputed American-born man on record. He became the third oldest undisputed man ever on March 30, 2011, and is one of the 40 undisputed oldest people ever.
Around the age of 64, Breuning was diagnosed with colon cancer. It was successfully treated and did not return. Breuning didn't have any other health issues until he broke his hip at the age of 108. He spent eight days in the hospital and was totally healed in 21 days.[20] Breuning attributed much of his longevity to his diet. Shortly after his wife died, Breuning started eating out at restaurants. Eventually, he stopped dining out, but he continued eating two meals a day. He ate a big breakfast and a hearty lunch but skipped an evening meal, snacking on fruit instead. Breuning consumed a lot of water plus a cup and a half of coffee with breakfast and one cup with lunch. He got up every day at 6:15 a.m. and had breakfast at 7:30 a.m. He then took a stroll around The Rainbow for exercise and could then be found sitting in the lobby chatting with fellow residents.
His weight was around the same for the last 50 years of his life, 125–130 pounds (57–59 kg). Because Breuning was 5 feet 8 inches (1.73 m), his body mass index was around 19.[21][22] For years Breuning took a baby aspirin daily, but he eventually gave that up. In his later years he took no medication at all, stating that he didn't need it.[23] Breuning believed another key to his longevity was keeping his mind and body active, not retiring until the age of 99 and until very recently doing calisthenics every morning. Though his vision didn't allow him to read anymore, Breuning kept his mind active by listening to the radio.
On March 31, 2011, Breuning was hospitalized for an unspecified illness. The Governor of Montana, Brian Schweitzer, visited Breuning in hospital on April 6 and 8, 2011.[24]
