A Georgian woman is claiming to be the oldest person in the world. Her birth documents show that she was born on July 8 1880 and will turn 130 this summer.

Antisa Khvichava, who lives in a remote village in Georgia, enjoys playing backgammon and drinking vodka.

Georgian authorities have applied to the Guinness Book of World Records claiming that she is the oldest person in the world.

If her birth documents prove to be genuine, she will take the record from a 114-year-old woman in Japan.
