Venezuelan man, topped world’s oldest, marks 113th birthday Friday

Venezuelan Juan Vicente Perez Mora, declared the oldest individual on the planet by Guinness World Records final week, will hit 113 years previous on Friday.

Perez Mora, who enjoys good well being and a cup of robust aguardiente liquor day by day, has 41 grandchildren, 18 great-grandchildren, and 12 great-great-grandchildren, Guinness stated in a press launch.

Apart from barely elevated blood strain and listening to issues as a consequence of his age, Perez Mora is in superb well being and doesn’t take treatment, stated Enrique Guzman, a doctor from a clinic in San Jose de Bolivar, in Venezuela’s Tachira state.

“He seems totally fine to me,” Guzman stated.

Perez Mora grew to become the world’s oldest individual after Saturnino de la Fuente Garcia, who was born on Feb. 11, 1909 in Spain, died in January aged 112 years and 341 days previous.
