Georgia Says It Has 130-Year-Old Woman

This can’t be true, can it? The nation of Georgia is saying that one of its citizens turned 130 on Thursday, making her a full 16 years older than the recognized world’s oldest person. Georgia says Antisa Khvichava was born July 8, 1880; although her birth certificate has been lost, the nation says two Soviet-era documents prove her age. Khvichava has only one surviving child, a son who would have been born when she was 60. “I've always been healthy, and I've worked all my life—at home and at the farm," she says. She retired in 1965 at the age of 85.
