An Iranian man, named: Amou Haji, and nicknamed the “dirtiest man in the world” for not taking a shower for decades has died at the age of 94.
According to IRNA news agency Tuesday, Haji, who did not wash for more than half of a century and was single, died Sunday in the village of Dejgah in the southern province.
Haji had avoided showering over fears of “getting sick”, the agency quoted a local official as saying.
But “for the first time a few months ago, villagers had taken him to a bathroom to wash.”
A short documentary film titled “The Strange Life of Amou Haji” was made about his life in 2013, according to Iranian media outlets.
