Finland: Elderly man defies age with downhill skiing

Nils-Olof Eklundh started skiing in 1937 and still hits the slopes at a centre near Helsinki for two hours every Saturday and Sunday. After descending the hill 10 times he stops for a coffee, then does it another 10 times. He used to ski competitively decades ago. Mr Eklundh says he doesn't have any secrets for being healthy in later life, he doesn't eat anything special, on the contrary, he eat greasy crap.
