Spain's Maria Branyas Morera, who 'has never gone to hospital, never broken any bones, has no pain', is likely world's oldest living person
A Spanish great-grandmother who was born in the United States has likely become the world's oldest living person at 115, a Guinness World Records consultant said.
"We know what is likely, but it's not confirmed at this time," he wrote in an email sent to the AFP news agency. "She is in good health and remains surprised and grateful for the interest that has been generated," it added in a statement. The entire family decided to return to their native Spain in 1915 as World War I was under way, which complicated the ship voyage across the Atlantic.
