'130-year-old' Georgian woman launches World Record bid

London, Mar 11 : A Georgian woman, who will turn 130 this summer, is making a claim to be the oldest person in the world.

Antisa Khvichava has her birth documents, dating back to July 8 1880, as proof.

Georgian authorities have reportedly forwarded her name to the Guinness Book of World Records as the oldest person in the world.

If the birth documents are genuine, she will take away the title from a 114-year-old woman in Japan.

Khvichava spends her time playing backgammon and drinking vodka.
