'He eats everything and has never even been ill': The 145-year-old claiming to be the oldest human in the world's history says he is 'ready to die'
Mbah Gotho, 145 years old, started preparing for death in 1992, aged 122
His family has prepared a gravesite for him - near his children's graves
A new interview reveals he has outlived 10 siblings as well as four wives
But he now says: 'What I want is to die. My grandchildren are independent'
According to documentation recognised by Indonesian officials, Mbah Gotho is 145 and was born on 31st December 1870.
He has not surprisingly outlived all 10 of his siblings as well as his four wives, the last of whom died in 1988.
All of his children have also died, and now he is survived by his grandchildren, great grandchildren, and great-great grandchildren.
