The 35th National Masters Athletic Championship held in South India saw an unbelievable record being created.
 
Dharampal Gujjar cleared 200 meters in 46.74 seconds and won the 400 meters.
 
Now, if that’s no great task, then the winner is 116 years old, according to a report in NDTV.
 
Standing 6-ft tall, Gujjar, has participated in several marathons.
 
If his voter card is to be believed, then he, indeed, is the oldest person alive in the world.
 
He has not sought funds from the government. His co-workers help him financially to participate in events.
 
His balanced diet is the secret to his longevity and health, he claims.
