Unlike some of the similar claims that have surfaced over the years, the claim by members of Tuti Yusupova's family has been backed by the government and she appears to have some documentation which proves it.<br> They claim she was born on July 1st 1880, which would make her 12 years older than the current record holder, Jeanne Calment, who died in 1997 at the age of 122.<\/p>\n<p>Ms Yusupova passed away this week and leaves behind over 100 descendants. They, along with government officials in the country now want the Guinness Book of Records to document that achievement.<\/p>\n<p>Her funeral was attended by Baxadir Yangibaev, chairman of the council of ministers of the Republic of Karakalpakstan &ndash; the area of Uzbekistan where Tuti lived.<\/p>\n<p>He claimed that the evidence of Ms Yusupova's age was conclusive and this information would be passed onto the officials responsible for the Guinness Book of Records.<\/p>\n<p>In a Russian documentary about the woman's life that was aired when she was alive, Ms Yusupova, said: &quot;I can tell you that the secret to a long life is to do lots of work in the fields and to live an honest life.<\/p>\n<p>&quot;Having lived through so many wars I would also tell the children of today to try and live their lives in the company of good people and to appreciate times of peace.&quot;<\/p>\n<p>At the age of 134, Ms Yusupova will have lived through two world wars, the fall of the Berlin wall, the arrival of the internet, and the invention of television, to name but a few.<\/p>\n<p>In 2008, officials in the country awarded her with a special price known as the 'Shukhrat'.<\/p>\n<p>Researchers from the World Health Organisation had also paid her a visit as part of a study into longevity.<img decoding=\"async\" alt=\"ADNFCR-2867-ID-801782481-ADNFCR\" src=\"http:\/\/feeds.directnews.co.uk\/feedtrack\/justcopyright.gif?feedid=2867&amp;itemid=801782481\"\/><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>An Uzbekistan woman is said to have lived for 134 years.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":1,"featured_media":3641,"comment_status":"open","ping_status":"closed","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"_et_pb_use_builder":"","_et_pb_old_content":"","_et_gb_content_width":"","footnotes":""},"categories":[4],"tags":[],"yoast_head":"<!-- This site is optimized with the Yoast SEO plugin v21.5 -
