83-year-old Elisa Forti wants to conquer the treacherous Aconcagua Mountain, the highest mountain in the Americas. Elisa, who has already crossed the Andes twice, was born in Italy but moved with her family to Argentina when she was 14 years old. She has a large family with five children, eleven grandchildren and three great-grandchildren. Known as the 'mountain of death,' Aconcagua will be far and away her biggest challenge yet.
Visitors to Moscow now have the opportunity to see a 33,000-year-old baby woolly rhino at the “Warm Permafrost” paleontological exhibition in Moscow. The intact body was found in Yakutia in 2014 in excellent condition, one of the first ever fully preserved baby wooly rhinos. The baby wooly rhino, a member of a long extinct species which roamed the frozen plains of the ice age, is one of the only babies of the species to ever go on dispaly.
Staying fit is a challenge at any age, but 103-year-old Mieko Nagaoka continues to swim laps well past her century mark. In fact, the Japanese world record swimmer is training twice a week with her son Hiroyuki Nagaoka at the Yanai Swimming school in Japan's Yamaguchi prefecture, for another major competition. Her body is not failing her, in fact, she is only getting stronger and quicker in preparation for when her speed in the water will be measured against the clock.
They say age is just a number, but Nanu Shaova's number is much higher than nearly every living person. At 127-years-old, this woman is officially recognized by Russian census authorities as the oldest living person in the Russian Federation, and, we have to say, she looks amazing for her age. However, Shaova's extraordinary numbers don't stop at her age - she has 10 children, 23 grandchildren, 33 great-grandchildren and even already has 5 great-great-grandsons.
Nina Kolykhalova proved just how far a grandma's love can go by committing to six years of helping her blind granddaughter Anastasia finish both bachelors and masters degrees. Nina lived in the student dorm with Anastasia and would attend classes and even read to her granddaughter from text books because braille editions didn't exist at that time.
