The World’s dirtiest man, who lived without bathing for 50 years, has died. Amou Haji, an Iranian, died at the age of 94. His death news was released by the foreign media.
He claimed that he avoided bathing over fears of getting sick. No water or soap was used for many years. Though the villagers tried to bathe Haji several times, he refused to abide. He believed that bathing would make him sick and cleanliness would make him sick. However, reports said for the first time a few months ago, villagers had bathed him. He became ill shortly afterwards and died in the village of Dejgah in the southern province of Fars on Sunday. He was single.
In an interview he had revealed that his favourite meal was porcupine and that he lived between a hole in the ground and a brick shack built by neighbours. His diet consisted of rotten meat and unsanitary water drunk from an old oil can. His skin was covered in soot and pus. He was addicted to smoking. The bad experiences he witnessed when young are the reason for this habit.
