Default who says beer and smoking is bad for you

He has been a smoker since the age of seven and will not give up regular trips to the pub for a few pints of bitter.

Buster does not drink water, so his trainers have arranged several stops along the Marathon route where a pint will be available.
Pretty amazing really that someone that age can do that.

Found another link that he might not be 101 though.

There has been no confirmation of reports in the British press that Martin could be 'as young as 94

He will become the poster boy for smokers every where. "Look at the British Guy. He has been smoking for almost 100 years and is fit as a fiddle. I'm going to keep on smoking and live forever. Those millions of other people who died from smoking were just a coincidence."

I thought this was going to be about drinking a beer and smoking at the same time

He's not 101, look at his photo, guy doesn't look a day over 70! He kind of looks like a younger Castro!
