A 97-year-old California man pulled off a 'dramatic exit', passing away at his own birthday party just moments after tearing up the dance floor to the Bee Gees' “Stayin' Alive". Los Angeles-based baker Eden Malinoff took to social media to share the remarkable story of Vito, her neighbour, who went out dancing, partying and enjoying after throwing a Halloween-themed 97th birthday bash last week.

In the now viral clip, Vito can be seen clapping, dancing and smiling while dressed in a black button-down shirt and dress pants as the popular '70s disco classic played in the background.

24-year-old Malinoff said she baked a red wine chocolate cake for Vito, who was always full of energy and life, despite his advanced age. She said even she could not keep up with him when it came to celebrating life.

“This past week was Vito's 97th birthday, and in true Vito fashion, he wanted to celebrate by throwing a Halloween birthday rager,” said Malinoff, who runs a cake and cookie business.
