FUKUOKA, Japan —?Kane Tanaka, who was born the same year that the Wright Brothers achieved their first powered flight, turned 118 on Jan. 2.
Born on Jan. 2, 1903, she was recognized as the oldest living person by Guinness World Records in March 2019 at the age of 116 and set the all-time Japanese age record in October 2019 at 117 years, 261 days.

In 2019, Tanaka was presented the official certificate by Kaoru Ishikawa, the official adjudicator and the head of Japan Records Management Team of Guinness World Records. She was surrounded by her family and the mayor of Fukuoka city.

She was again declared the oldest living person on Feb. 12, 2020, at 117 years, 41 days.
