Vodka-drinking Khvichava is the oldest human
Antisa Khvichava celebrating the International Women’s Day with her family
GEORGIAN great-grandmother Antisa Khvichava is perhaps the world's oldest person.
The matriarch, who would turn 130 in July, was located by a television station in Georgia recently.
She is currently living with her son, grandchildren and great grandchildren in the remote Caucasus Mountains.
A Soviet-era passport of Khvichava showed her date of birth as 1880.
The Georgian government is making arrangement for the Guinness Book of Records to include her as the oldest person.
A video footage, which was broadcasted on the Georgian channel on the International Women's Day, showed Khvichava being congratulated by her family and enjoying a glass of wine.
According to the report, she remains in good health and still plays board games, drinks vodka and yogurt.
To date, the world's oldest person ever lived was Sakhan Dosova from Kazakhstan, who was born on March 27, 1879.
Dosova died at the age of 130 after she slipped and fell on her bathroom floor in May last year.
She had attributed her long life to her sense of humour.
Watch the video footage, here.
