NUWAKOT, Nepal, Dec. 7 (UPI) -- A Nepalese woman believed to be the country's oldest at 112 years revealed a surprising fact about her life -- she's been smoking for 95 of them.

Batuli Lamichhane, of Nuwakot, is indeed 112 according to her ID, but local residents said she could be as old as 114.


Lamichhane attributed her longevity to keeping active.

"You will probably die earlier. People of this modern age have too much stress. And those who do not work or are idle in their old age won't live long. If you study a lot and work hard, you'll live a long life. Be happy!" she told TIG Media.

The super centenarian also shared a surprising fact about her life -- she's had a daily pack-and-a-half habit for the past 95 years.
