This Chinese grandfather is breaking fashion stereotypes one step at a time. Literally. Wang Deshun is a 80-year-old actor and artist who recently made his first appearance on a podium as a model and absolutely crushed it.

Wang made his debut during China Fashion Week and quickly found himself in the national spotlight. Because of his charming charisma and fit body people started calling him “China’s hottest grandpa” and nobody could argue with them.

“It’s about your state of mind. It’s not about age. Nature determines age, but you determine your state of mind,” says Wang. However, his attitude is only one side of the coin. The grandpa also says he  works out about 3 hours per day.

(h/t: huffpost, mmm)

“It’s about your state of mind. It’s not about age,” – says Wang

    He looks like a bad a**e kung fu master. The clothing suits his look very well. Healthy eating, exercise, and some impressive genetics - good for him! Maybe he'll do more shows.

    Looks incredibly fit! But a secret? Well, a healthy lifestyle, sports, not too much stress, and - as unfair as it may seem - a good amount of luck are what you need to have the body of a normal 50 year old at 80.
