Antonio Todde (January 22, 1889 – January 3, 2002) was the oldest documented man in the world in 2001-2002 after the death of John Painter, and briefly the oldest person in the history of Italy.

The first time Todde saw a television was in the market town of Nuoro in 1954 (the same year RAI started broadcasting), and he would cycle 30 miles each night to watch its fuzzy pictures of dancing girls.
