RE: Worlds oldest person
There has never been a person lived for (over) 130 years, according to Wikipedia: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Oldest_peop...eople_ever
The oldest person that has ever lived is Jeanne Calment, who lived for 122 years and 164 days, in France. And the oldest people currently alive is Eugénie Blanchard, 114 years old, only.
If you have heard somewhere that a person lived for more than 130 years, it's pretty likely to be a rumor only. For the people in Old Testament, there's an exception, though. :)

No man is an island, entire of itself; every man is a piece of the continent, a part of the main; if a clod be washed away by the sea, Europe is the less, as well as if a promontory were, as well as if a manor of thy friends or of thine own were; any man's death diminishes me, because I am involved in mankind; and therefore never send to know for whom the bell tolls; it tolls for thee.
