Mbah Gotho of Indonesia might be the longest living human being in recorded history, but he “just wants to die.”

Gotho was born Dec. 31, 1870, according to the date of birth on his ID card, reported The Telegraph.

Officials at a local records office said they have been able to confirm that his date of birth is real. The findings have yet to be independently verified, but if they are, it would make Gotho, of Sragen in central Java, 145 years old.
