That's the trouble with this crown - typically, people don't really live to enjoy it.

The article was on the worlds oldest man.

"...An observant Jew, Kristal himself only celebrated his bar mitzvah last year, a hundred years later than usual. He missed his bar mitzvah, the Jewish coming-of-age ceremony held when a boy turns 13, because of the first world war.

Kristal is survived by two children, numerous grandchildren and great-grandchildren...

From the Guardian.
