Adrean Posted April 30, 2012 Share Posted April 30, 2012 http://youtu.be/vdqTmBGcg3M An 86-year-old Yorkshire man, Brendon Grimshaw may have lived alone for many years on the tiny island paradise of Moyenne in the Seychelles in the middle of the Indian Ocean since he bought it in 1962 for £8000, but he is rarely lonely. For Brendon has spent the years reintroducing the indigenous giant tortoise to Moyenne and now shares the island with 120 of the magnificent creatures, on one of the world's smallest national parks. The BBC's Simon Reeve went to visit him. :view:Original Article: BBC News Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
grouchysmurf Posted April 30, 2012 Share Posted April 30, 2012 Ok, I admit it, I am a sucker for the giant tortoise andI think Mr. Grimshaw will live at least another 20 or so years.It seems that his lifestyle has managed to slow the aging processway down.
