Estate agent, 63, is world's oldest male stripper
An estate agent over 60-years-old has been recognised by the Guinness Book of Records as the world's oldest male stripper.
Bernie Barker, who turns 63 today, a former nuclear power plant worker from New York, only took up erotic dancing in his senior years following a brush with death.
In 1999, he was diagnosed with prostate cancer. To keep in shape after life-saving surgery, he became a regular cage dancer at Miami Gold, a strip club in North Miami Beach.
Now he can be seen "hip-shaking like Elvis, moonwalking like Michael Jackson" at Club LaBare, a North Miami Beach ladies' club, in nothing but his fluorescent yellow g-string.
He's even won over 30 male strip competitions, beating contestants young enough to be his grandchildren.
"If I can do these things with cancer at 62, others can feel a little better about themselves and their own possibilities," says Bernie. "I feel young, probably too young!"
