'Breaking Stereotypes. 80-Year-Old Runway Model. Subscribe https://www.youtube.com/channel/UCbY-JSGlw-6m17wA7CTyHwA Do you know 80-year-old man, reshaping China’s views on aging with his youthful looks, his white hipster beard and his athletic physique? This hyperactive grandpa shares his experience of being a rising star. He\'s smashing stereotypes with his amazing outlook. At 80 years old, Wang Deshun is redefining what it means to get older — one catwalk at a time. In China, most men retire at age 60, and people as young as 50 are often referred to as \"grandma\" or \"grandpa\" — even if they don\'t have grandchildren. But Wang isn\'t interested in embodying that sentimental nickname. An actor and artist, he\'s spent the last few decades combatting stereotypical ideas of aging and working on keeping both his mind and body super strong and energetic. He\'s taught modeling classes at a Beijing fashion school, and he even walked a high-fashion runway for the first time last year, at age 79. With all his hard work, he\'s managed to steer clear of taking on the traditional title of \"yeye,\" or \"grandpa.\" In China, he\'s known as the country\'s \"hottest grandpa.\" Of course, maintaining his title takes lots of hard work: Deshun spends three hours every day working out, and his daily routine includes a half-mile-long swim. He also works on keeping his mind sharp by spending his mornings learning and reading. Wang admits to small dietary changes such as drinking less alcohol, but what he says keeps him feeling truly strong and energetic is his youthful mindset — he\'s always open to trying new things, and he always has a new goal for his future in mind.. \"Nature determines age, but you determine your state of mind,\" he told the Times. “From my perspective, ‘success’ only means ‘target completed’. I want to be a better human every day after.” Which is exactly Reebok’s statement. “Wang Deshun reaped his life achievements by his willpower, determination, earnestness and fitness. He proves it is never too late to get into fitness and challenge yourself in life. His persistence and pioneering spirit purely demonstrate ‘Be More Human’.He adds that the popularity of senior models is part of a growing phenomenon that sees more and more Chinese taking pride in their work out and choice of a healthy lifestyle, whatever their age. ►Subscribe & never miss a Video - https://www.youtube.com/channel/UCbY-JSGlw-6m17wA7CTyHwA Beautiful places in the world https://www.youtube.com/playlist?list=PLgLQXx4AI9vh4-4joV_TwCMxWNSFCJPV9 Amazing facts about the food https://www.youtube.com/playlist?list=PLgLQXx4AI9vgWbmPcT7U81_vyaljNiX0M Countries you are going to visit https://www.youtube.com/playlist?list=PLgLQXx4AI9viUSLdBNUA2_FVYD8O4w28X ►Leave the comments ► Follow us on: https://twitter.com/AmWA2016 https://www.facebook.com/razgovorpodusham https://www.instagram.com/amazing_worldaround ►Music Supplied by \"Super Power Cool Dude\" Kevin MacLeod (incompetech.com) Licensed under Creative Commons: By Attribution 3.0 License http://creativecommons.org/licenses/by/3.0/ ► Source http://www.drozthegoodlife.com/healthy-lifestyle/body/news/a2625/80-year-old-model-wang-deshun/'
