my name is John Carter and I am 90 years
old very often I'm awake at 5:00 a.m.
and then I get up and then I put on my
walking shoes and then nothing seems to
slow me down
watch over me
leaveme far from us
[Music]
take over me
over every rushing man
is only for
oh this could be my last chance
[Music]
three
save from the crash
[Music]
and talk to me
your heart is 3
if only for
oh this could be
last year
[Music]
there's just nobody 90 years old that's
doing what I am doing because of my
feeling in the unusual health that I
enjoy I don't have any joint problems of
my knees are good and I like riding my
bike I can actually at my age and kick
my shoes off and I can sprint I can
sprint 50 yards like nothing and at 90
years old that doesn't happen usually
five evenings a week I go at eight
o'clock I go into the gym I see Ron to
me
and there's no telling what you'll find
here and then I can miss my diving I'm
still dying off a ten foot board at the
pool and nobody that ninety years old is
diving off with me and I am having a
marvelous time and then when I want to
show off I do a back flop I'll light it
the water 10 feet below flat on my back
and it just echoes flat and honestly
gosh and I did it recently
my back was red for about three hours
and sure it's done but everybody enjoyed
it this especially me I like their
attention
twice I've lost my teeth I thought they
were closed getting good in my pocket
met the life coaches a mr. Carter your
teeth it on the bottom of the pool no no
I'm not I'm not gonna do that no don't
buy into that
my sweetheart bunny we were together 62
years and it turned out that she had a
tumor on her front
Raynald I come home one night from the
pool within ten minutes and me being
home she went into a seizure and we had
to call the ambulance and get her to the
hospital she was three weeks in the
hospital and she actually never suffered
much and on May the fifth she died
[Music]
the church is really important to me and
I got such a beautiful family
you know some people see me coming and
they make the comments that I might be
trouble
[Music]
[Applause]
but 90 I am really doing very well the
way I'm going I have no doubt I'm gonna
go beyond a hundred and I plan on being
there I don't think I have any requests
