59-Year-Old Singaporean Man Goes Viral Looking Younger Than Most 20-Year-Olds
A 59-year-old Singaporean photographer named Chuando Tan has gone viral for his stunningly youthful appearance like his in his 20s.
Born in 1966, his physique and features spark disbelief but Tan insists his age-defying look comes down to pure discipline.
Tan wasn’t always just an internet sensation, he was a top model in the 80s before moving behind the lens.
In 2017, he went viral not for his photography, but for looking decades younger than his actual age. He became an instant icon of ‘aging backwards.’
He claims there is no secret formula, attributing his looks to 70 percent diet and 30 percent exercise.
His meals focus on lean proteins like eggs and grilled chicken, avoiding alcohol and processed sugars. He believes consistent, clean eating is the real foundation of his vitality.
Tan trains three to five times a week, focusing on strength sessions with compound movements like squats and push-ups.
This steady routine maintains essential muscle mass and joint health, proving that consistency matters far more than intense, punishing workouts.
Beyond the gym, Tan prioritizes recovery. He avoids late-night meals and aims to be in bed by 11 PM for quality sleep.
With a minimal skincare routine and no cosmetic surgery, he remains a testament to the power of healthy habits over quick fixes.

72-Year-Old Grandma Goes Viral Winning Bodybuilding Competition After Training For Just 3 Years
A 72-year-old grandmother has gone viral for proving age is just a number after winning the 2025 President’s Cup Bodybuilding and Fitness Championships in Taiwan.
Last month, Lin Sui-tzu stunned audiences in a bikini, proudly showing her toned muscles and confident smile.
Before becoming a fitness sensation, Lin spent decades working as a diabetes educator in Taipei. She advised patients on managing chronic conditions like high blood pressure through diet.
However, she often grew frustrated when patients ignored her advice, claiming they lacked the time to exercise.
Deciding to lead by example, Lin began weight training at the age of 69. She initially wanted to understand the ‘resistance training’ she recommended to seniors.
She quickly realized it wasn’t just about bulk, but about health and definition, sparking a passion that changed her life.
Her dedication yielded rapid results in the competitive arena. Lin secured third place at a national championship in 2023 and climbed to second place at the TBFA Championship the following year.
Her transformation even impressed her grandsons, who now affectionately call her ‘Invincible Wonder Woman.’
Her husband, a cardiologist, fully supports her intense fitness journey. He emphasizes that resistance training is crucial for combating issues like high blood pressure and diabetes.
Together, they advocate for regular exercise as a vital component of healthy aging.
Lin’s secrets to staying young are disciplined yet simple. She dedicates her mornings to weight training five days a week and follows a low-carb, whole-food diet.
Beyond the gym, she keeps her mind and body active through hobbies like yoga, ballroom dancing, and painting.
Lin offers powerful advice to those fearing old age. She believes the “second half of life” is long and full of potential.
She emphasizes that as long as you are willing to learn and take action, it is never too late to enrich your body.

Husband Goes Viral for Becoming a ‘Human Chair’ to Support His Pregnant Wife
A man in China went viral after quietly becoming a human chair for his pregnant wife during a hospital checkup.
With no seats available, he squatted on the floor, let her rest on his back, and handed her water as she waited for her doctor, earning praise worldwide.
The moment, filmed in 2019, took place at a hospital in Heilongjiang, northeastern China.
The clip was shared by the Hegang police on their account, calling out onlookers who stayed glued to their phones and refused to offer seats.
Viewers praised the husband’s gentle patience, his simple act showed what marriage truly means. It is choosing your partner’s comfort over your own, and offering support without being asked.
Sometimes, love is not loud. It is patient, present, and willing to carry the weight together.

Remembering Ken-Chan, the Cat Who Spent Seven Years Trying to Break Into a Japanese Art Museum
Japan is mourning Ken-chan, the black cat who spent seven years trying to slip past the sliding doors of the Onomichi City Museum of Art.
His death, announced on November 11, sparked a wave of tributes from fans who adored his gentle persistence and charm.
Ken-chan became a regular sight at the museum entrance, where visitors often watched security guard Sadao Umayahara crouch into a gentle, playful stance as the determined cat approached.
Their quiet back-and-forth turned into a cherished ritual that spread joy far beyond the museum steps.
His first appearance came in 2017 during a cat-themed exhibition. Living at a nearby restaurant, Ken-chan casually approached the museum, only to be politely blocked by Umayahara.
Staff filmed the moment, and the clip went viral, launching the story known as ‘the cat and the guard standoff.’
Despite his determination, Ken-chan didn’t seem drawn to the exhibitions at all. What he wanted was Umayahara.
Strangely, he only tried to slip inside on the guard’s workdays. Umayahara appeared just four times a year, yet Ken-chan always seemed to know exactly when to show up.
In 2018, Ken-chan began showing up with an orange tabby later named Gocchan. The pair turned the museum steps into their playground, often attempting a two-on-one ‘battle’ against the ever-patient guard.
Their visits became a small but steady source of joy for the community.
Ken-chan fell ill in 2025 and eventually stopped appearing at the museum doors. After months of treatment, he passed away in September 2025.
The museum announced the news on November 11, the anniversary of his adoption, sharing the loss on behalf of his owner.
To honor his legacy, the museum released a 2026 memorial calendar filled with moments between Ken-chan and Umayahara, which sold out right away.
They also created life-size figurines of Ken-chan and Gocchan, and a small black cat sticker now marks the doors he once tried to enter.
Umayahara, who had only ever kept a dog, said Ken-chan was the only cat he had ever grown close to. He admitted he still expects to see the black cat appear around the corner.
“I want to say thank you to him for all the good memories we had together,” Sadao Umayahara said.
