Simon Redditt: 105-Year-Old LA Man Talks Marriage Proposals, Scotch And The Afterlife (VIDEO)

WATCH: One Of Our Oldest Angelenos, A 105-Year-Old Man

When you think LA, you don't think old. But this man is as LA as anyone on the red carpet, and KPCC's just released video gives us a glimpse into his character.

Simon Redditt, known as "Papa Si," was born on August 25, 1906. He prefers scotch over bourbon, has turned down marriage proposals at an old age, and says about heaven, "I think when you're dead, you're done."

Perhaps best of all is hearing this centenarian sing the blues. Here's to you, Papa Si.
