50-year-old model claims chicken and sleep are the elixir of life

Meet Chuando Tan.

A former model turned photographer from Singapore.

He runs his own modelling agency and has worked on a number of high-fashion projects over the years – but it's not his work that's making headlines this week, it's his age.

This man is 50-years-old.

Five. Zero. 

Back in the 1980s, Chuando was one of Singapore's most sought-after models, and according to metro.co.uk, he even had a short career as a Mandarine pop singer.

But, after a decade in the limelight, he decided to step behind the camera and has since built up his reputation as a celebrity photographer – although we're pretty sure he'd still blend right into the pages of any modern magazine.

So, what on earth is his secret?

No, it's not some kind of Benjamin Button situation (though that seems like the only logical explanation).

The photographer puts his youthful appearance down to three major things – avoiding late night, never bathing late at night or early in the morning and eating Hainan chicken breast meat everyday.

But, while this all sound pretty easy, we're guessing some really good genes have a huge part to play.

Some people have all the luck.
