Yukie Takahashi (高橋雪枝) was born in Japan on 4 January 1913. Even after turning 100, she remained physically active and was able to climb stairs with ease. At around the age of 105, however, she fractured her femur and subsequently moved into a nursing home.
At the age of 112, Takahashi continued to take part in activities at her nursing home, including calligraphy, making snacks, and arts and crafts.
On 16 September 2026, the mayor of Akiruno City and other city officials visited Takahashi to celebrate her longevity, presenting her with a certificate and commemorative gifts. At the age of 113, she put on makeup for the occasion and greeted the mayor cheerfully with a smile.
According to her family, Takahashi remains in good health at the age of 113. She is able to eat by herself and propel herself in her wheelchair.
