Slava Ivančević (Слава Иванчевић; 10 June 1894? or 1908 — 24 September 2013[4]) was a Serbian woman claimed to have been aged 119 years, 106 days at her death, which if true could have made her the world's oldest person and second oldest person ever after Jeanne Calment.[5][6]
Those claiming that she was born in 1894 did not send sufficient documentation to the Guinness World Records to prove her age before she died.[7] There were also claims that she was not born in 1894, but in 1908.
Life
Born in Bihać in today's Bosnia and Herzegovina.[8] After Bosnian War she and her family moved to the urban Belgrade neighborhood of Karaburma. Serbia first heard of her in 2011. She had one son and one daughter. Her son died in 2011, and she then lived with her daughter and granddaughter.[9] She died in hospital in Belgrade on 24 September 2013.[10]
Ivančević has said that brandies and mints are the reasons why she has lived so long.[11]
