An 86 year old man, Brendon Grimshaw, bought an island in the Indian Ocean, replanted it with 16,000 trees and lured turtles to come and live with him.

120 Giants Found Living With 86-Year-Old Man

I don't know what kind of nerve, ferocity and stubbornness got 86-year-old Brendon Grimshaw to buy an island in the Indian Ocean, replant it with 16,000 trees, grasses and then lure a bunch of giant tortoises ? big galumphing ones and itty-bitty ones ? to live with him (one gets born in his bedroom). But he did it, and when he takes reporter Simon Reeve on a tour, he seems so shy and gentle. But I bet he's not. My guess is Brendon is next to impossible to live with, unless you're too big, too slow and too reptilian to care. Take a look.

Pretty darn good shape for 86>>>>no grey hair even to speak of Passion and staying active is quite a youth elixir. I would think by looking at his masterpiece and life achievement that he is quite at peace with himself.
