Japanese man, 102, becomes oldest person to reach Mount Fuji summit
What have you done lately? I've made some snacks and ordered pizza.

Kokichi Akuzawa has become the oldest person to climb to the top of Mount Fuji at the age of 102 – despite almost giving up during his trek.

“I was really tempted to give up halfway through,” Akuzawa said. “Reaching the summit was tough, but my friends encouraged me, and it turned out well. I managed to get through it because so many people supported me.”

Akuzawa climbed with his daughter Motoe, 70, his granddaughter, her husband, and four friends from a climbing club. His achievement has been recognised by Guinness World Records.
