Woman from Dagestan gets into Guinness Book of World Records
In Dagestan, Sakinat Khanapieva, 76, a resident of Sultan-Yangiyurt village, has been recognized to be the strongest grandmother in the world. The woman was registered in the Guinness Book of World Records.
Sakinat Khanapieva easily lifts a 24-kilo weight, walks on nails, and bends iron articles and tears multi-page books into pieces with her hands. She is in the excellent shape and sound memory.
This power, as the record-holder asserts, is the result of her eating only natural food and not taking any medicines, the "Uznayvse.ru" Agency reports.
The woman loves ports Pushkin and Rasul Gamzatov very much; and she writes verses of her own.
Asked by journalists, Sakinat Khanapieva recollected what she began with. Once together with her mother she made home cleaning, and a necessity arose to move a box with grain, which was some 200 kilos by weight. Sakinat tried to push it with her shoulder - and it moved. She was 10 years old then. Since then, she began exercising and improved constantly, the "Neformat.co.ua" Agency reports.
Earlier, residents of the south of Russia already got into the Guinness Book. Thus, a ten year-old schoolboy Andrei Khlopin from Beisuzhek village, Krasnodar Territory, was already twice put in the Guinness Book of World Records for his scientific theories. He was 3 years old, when he developed his first scientific hypotheses.
