Richard Overton, 111, 'just keeps living'
HTML-код
- Опубликовано: 8 май 2018
- Richard Overton, 111, will turn 112 on May 11, 2018. He wakes up some time between 3 and 5 a.m., and immediately lights up his first cigar. He smokes about 15 cigars a day. He relies on four nurses and two family members to help him get through the day. Most of his days are spent greeting visitors on his front porch in Austin, Texas. He says his secret to living a long life is "just keep living, don't die."

R.I.P Mr. Richard Arvin Overton (May 11, 1906 - December 27, 2018) I salute you sir!
Weird I look on this on the day after he passes.
JoeCnNd Same.
@hector nadal he deserve to have a holiday after him
Wha !! Ain't That Something ! Bless His Soul........he lived it and past it ❤
112 years, what a blessing.
The secret is to just try not to die.
Honestly tho
He died. R.I.P
Nitro Stem cap
Perez Oroz no, you just have to try not to die.
@Thats not how you make porridge Smoking is a bad habit, nobody should ever do it. Same as with alcohol
The literal OG, this guy was such an inspiration
1st
Man, I remember watching this some time ago. So sad to hear he died today but 112 is a long life.
Heck yeah ❗ ♥ That's a bad mother.........to live that long was truly a Blessing ❗ SIP Salute !!!
Mike James HELL FREAKIN YEAH!!😲😲
RIP MR OVERTON!!
The bible says " my spirit will dwell with a man for 120 years...." So if you eat and love right 120 is the number.
Wish I could of listened to at least 5min of any story this man had
@@linnyw1072 must have lost 8 years to cigars eh?
He said he hadn’t worked in 10 years he was working at 101 are you kidding me
Austin Trujillo exactly my thoughts
Austin Trujillo seems to work. People tend to die when they don’t have a purpose
My grandma is 90 and still working cause she wants to
GABE Swindler same with my great grandmother, mine would never leave the farm. We took her to live with us in the city and she got sick real quick. Resting all day is not good for anybody. It’s like taking care of the cows and chickens drives her to live. Like the thought of “I have to wake up, and if I don’t who will feed the cow”.
@@harate im 23 and no purpose
Imagine being that old then talking to your son which is like 80 years old too.... that’s crazy to me
😂😂🤔😐
He could also be 94. That's crazy too 😄
Back in those days most men became fathers around age 20, so his son could be in his 90’s. Awesome.
Smd probably watched his kids grow up and die before him
And your grandkid who's around 59 years old and your great grand kid who's 23
Rest in Peace, Richard Overton.
"I may give out but, I never give up."
A true warrior. The world just got a little bit darker now.
That timing! xD I loterally just hit newest and it said 4 seconds. xD But yeah r.i.p :(
Strongest man alive right here. Change my mind
Its not about how much a person can lift its about getting through each day and Mr Overton does it very well. He's a very positive person.
Mark Henry is. ;)
He’s dead now so.... did I change your mind
NinjaOtto Oof
@HealthInfo dude I went to your channel and the first thing I saw was a dick
This man was living history, he saw the world change in an entire century.
Hard to imagine that age of 56 he had still half of his lifetime coming.
Man imagine turning 100 and knowing that you'd probably die literally any moment and your proceed to live another 12 years. Wow
Still drives still smokes still live his life. Salute
52camnesia he still clapping cheeks too
I felt that when they said he sits outside for 4 hours like it’s nothing , all those memories and trauma through so many years on this earth. I bet.
homeless ppl just get a home: Homelessness rate drops to 0%
Yassin Hakim that’s the most cancerous thing I’ve ever read
@@duchess5218 lol
I think he was just vibing with that blunt not being a buddha
He don't need history class... he is the history class
I would have loved to just sit and listen to him all day man... the knowledge and all he has seen like man fuck a movie I’m going to see him lol he lived a great life
This man was in kindergarten when John Marston was still fighting off Pinkertons
amirhmem. 180 I came here from a video on John marston lmao
red dead?
Wait?
You serious?
2019-112=1907.. You are right sir.. What can I say.. Good for him
Oh wait.. He died in 2018.. Well.. He is born in 1906..I think this is before the events of the first game
He passed away after a long battle with pneumonia. Rest in peace.
Jermelle X no he didn’t he’s still alive
He was sick but he got better ( from what I’ve heard)
Jermelle X omg just looked it up you’re right 😭😭😭😭😭 my bad
@@breejames6323 No problem... I made sure to triple check! The man seemed immortal.
Jermelle X I know most people don’t even live to be 90! 112 is amazing! I just wish he got to live to go past the world record :( that would’ve been great
Happy 112th birthday Mr Overton.
He just passed
true Destiny We know.
@@peqbox "I ain't worked in 10 years."
Death: "Okay, your time has come."
This dude: "No."
Death: "Aight, Imma head out."
Continues vibing all day
In reality wasn't probably as old as he thought
I don’t think there’s enough time to explain how much I love this man
For 111, this guy's hearing is pretty top notch!
Awesome life...Blessed
He just died today, RIP HERO
those nurses don't seem very nice or gentle with him
They don't at all
And that’s with cameras in front of their face! First thing I noticed
Medical professionals in certain areas typically are not. I bet they are lvns actually.. Those are the worst.
Most of them aren't....😡
Thats how he likes it
Just imagine his heart has been beating for 111 years, GOLDEN ♥️
he lived 45% of united states history that’s ridiculous
Ridiculously short history
this should be top comment
short overall, but the 2nd longest running empire right now @@hamzamahmood9565
He lives long cause he is smoking that fat blunt with good ganja in it
Akeli 😂weed doesnt make you a druggie
Akeli probably never got invited to sesh after school
Some Native fax
Lmao 👍
Lol,but sadly he’s dead.
this guy was immortal. He could walk at 111.
This man been smoking for 103 years..
World record?
LEGEND
YoungNIB 420 Every cig he smoked is 1 extra week of life.
He smoked cigars and said in a previous interview that he never inhales, just puffs. Which is what you're supposed to do with cigars.
@@michaelc2472 Cigarettes or cigars? They are different things. With cigars- unlike cigarettes -you're not supposed to draw smoke into your lungs. You absorb the nicotine from the tobacco juices through the mucous membrane of the mouth..
"I ain't worked in 10 years." - 111 year old man
Soon to be all average people
That's disrespectful,he died..
Working at 101 years old? Jesus Christ
Jay Mohammed Just please let the dead ones rest..
@@urosnestorov9546 How is it disrespectful?
I would love to have a cigar with Mr Overton
I did when I was in Austin. As a fellow Vet, I chatted with him for a bit. A few months later I saw about him having his 100 bday, i thought he was in his 80s.
He’s dead so sorry
livey oone yeah but you can get mouth cancer
@@hectictrey8955 u sound stupid
@@chrisgriffin9682 says chris griffin
You can't even be sad about him passing away. The man lived longer than most of us ever will. He had a good life. Good for him.
hell ya and he was enjoying it too most people if they was that age they wouldnt be able to do anything and he was still driving at 109
This man was alive during the titanic incident
Just let that sink in.
I see what you did there ... Pun intended ?
Yup
I see what you did too!😄
And still so quick on the trigger with his words. :D Awesome man.
R.I.P Uncle. I continue our Overton service in the Army til this day for you. Now I am the oldest Overton from our family in the Army, in your remembrance. I'm still smoking cigars and sippin my whiskey while petting my cat. No credit card debt... Rest in heaven.
God blessed you sir a long life. My papa was 104 , born in 1892. still right mind ,active until his last 3 weeks ..cancer took him but he went easy ...love to you and respect and my papa also
Rest easy Mr. Overton. You’ve done well sir. I salute you for your service & dedication to life. You will not be forgotten.🙏🏾🙏🏾
In his National Geographic Interview when he was 109, he mentioned that he may often drink either 4 cups of coffee and/or whiskey first thing the morning. This seemed to be a whiskey morning... whatta legend. Rest In Peace big guy!
He actually drank a small amount of whiskey in each cup of coffee. He said in one interview “I don’t drink the stuff, just put a teaspoon in my coffee”
I really wish I could've spent a day with this guy, just talking to him.
Absolute legend.
He passed away on 27th December 2018, R.I.P.
Fuck only 783 more years till he beat Moses in the record
When you forgot how to die
(EDIT: Richard had passed away back in 2017, a long life you've lived my friend)

Mark O Callaghan what age did he start smoking?
@@bruhjones3432 age 8
My Dr. said no more cigars..and I'm only 59. I do miss them. Keep on keeping on Richard!
breakawaymotorsports he doesn't inhale them
Neither do I. Most don't. Inhaling cigars will kill you...fast!
dont listen to him/her, get back to smoking.
@@lukeoshaughnessy9271 Really? What the heck? Don't listen to a licenced medical profesional but some random bloke in the comments?
Dre die Young.
He was older than most of the presidents in our life time including Ronald Reagan. He was born in 1906 and lived until he was 112 my goodness. R.I.P Mr. Richard Arvin Overton (May 11, 1906 - December 27, 2018)
Rest in peace Mr Overton, I have nothing but respect for you in my heart.
Love you Richard!!! Good run!!! 112 almost 113...wow!!!
Lonnie Saint oooooooooooooooooof
Give me some of that money
Still witty at 111
And im here depressed LMAO
i feel better now.
RIP to a Real One.
Lol! Still WITTY... Pray I'm still funny💃
You can always turn yourself around!
He could have kids in their 90s grand kids in their 70s, great grandkids in their 50s! Absolutely amazing to think about what this man has seen come and go in his lifetime. I would have loved to sit and talk with him for hours on end!
He never did have any children
Thats probably why he was so happy and at peace lol@@sarahsimpkins1311
This man has been through it all, racism, segregation, climate change and everything. props to him.
Edit: sorry if this offended anyone in any way or term. I was just trying to make a point that the man had lived a long life and I’m proud that he did. So with that being said, please stop going through a debate in the “reply section”. Thanks.
CreamyConey Productions but climate change is fake
Kyle Bertram SURE. *ahem, global warming*
CreamyConey Productions it’s funny how you didn’t mention 8 wars a Depression, or terrorist attacks. I
@@camp4466 that's not climate change dumbass that's the earth naturally getting hotter depending wear you live
edgy lord not exactly, it is climate change, search it up, there’s solid evidence.
Glad he was able to make it to Christmas R.I.P brother thank you for your service.
Legit puts tears in my eyes
He makes me proud to be a US ARMY VETERAN...he is truly BLESSED. Thank you for your service Mr. Overton!

This man was alive when Harriet Tubman was alive
Let that sink in
WOW🔥 THAT'S POWERFUL
Harriet Tubman never existed reflect on that.
Aint worked in 10 years? So he was still working af 101. What a man. That guys body gave out, he def didnt give up.
If he didn’t smoke he’d probably live 900 years more
Lol yeah. I was gonna type that
Hell na he died when he supposed to..... people that don’t smoke don’t live that long ...... everyone’s body is different
Geo P r/whoosh
@@iJayx nah
It’s genetics bruh
I knew a man of 102 who used to regularly visit, on his own, the coffee bar I used. He said that what kept him alive was the desire to outlive his children... because they were "after his money".
David Peters Is he still alive?
what a shitty story then he has to take the money with him in grave
Happy 112 birthday Sir. May God keep you with us longer to share your wisdom with us!
We need more people like you . God blessed you and I bet he's happy to have you with him . From one vet to another , Thank You For Your Service . Rest in happiness .
