Regardless of their nationality, the majority of individuals enjoy taking baths or showers.
The number of times a person should shower varies throughout persons, but the notion that one should do so on a frequent basis remains the same.
But Amou Haji had a different opinion. He made the decision to forgo having a shower for 67 years. Furthermore, the deceased Persian man stated that he did it for valid reasons.
He had not taken a bath in over 60 years and lived alone in Iran. Roadkill was his favorite diet, and he was rumored to have swallowed animal poo from a pipe.
He was said to have been born in 1928 and was from the Iranian town of Dez Gah. Since nobody knew his true name, he was referred to as “old man” or “Amou Haji” by the people.
There is a narrative about him that claims he lost his love and turned into a recluse.
Amou Haji, widely regarded as the ‘World’s Dirtiest Man,’ passed away in 2022 at the age of 94. He had not taken a shower or used soap in almost 60 years, and he lived in a shanty made of cinder blocks.

His house was on the outskirts of town and was rumored to be built of cinder blocks. His presence didn’t appear to bother anyone.
When he felt his beard and hair were growing too long, he set them on fire. His concern for “hygiene” was limited to that. He had the same gray complexion and hair.
He lived to be 94 years old and appeared to be in good health throughout his life, despite the fact that he didn’t always keep himself clean.
When it came to drinking water, the elderly man wasn’t terrified of it, despite what many others believed. It was reported that he drank up to five liters of water daily out of an unclean tin can.
He preferred to find food on the ground when it came to eating. Even though fresh food was offered to him by others, he would always prefer to find his own. He even declared that porcupines were his greatest animal and that he preferred roadkill. It was reported that he consumed roadkill flesh that, despite still being entire, appeared rotting or old.
He also used a pipe to vape animal excrement. He was rumored to enjoy smoking cigarettes as well, and he was once spotted puffing on multiples at once.
Despite having poor food and hygiene, he was reported to be in good health. In reality, he passed away at the age of 94, just a few months after neighbors persuaded him to take a bath.
Dr. Gholamreza Molavi of Tehran University of Medical Sciences’ School of Public Health examined the elderly man prior to his passing. They were surprised to learn that despite his lifestyle, he was in good health.
On the other hand, he contracted trichinosis, a parasitic infection transmitted by food. Given that he enjoyed consuming dead animals found by the side of the road, this was not shocking. Either way, it didn’t significantly impact his health.

YOUNG BOY HELPS DAD TO KEEP HIS NEWBORN TWIN SIBLINGS WARM IN VIRAL PHOTO
Some visuals possess such profound warmth and tenderness that they captivate us effortlessly. One such image depicts a young boy assisting his father in warming his two premature twin sisters, evoking a sense of deep connection and compassion.
Originally shared on the Danish Facebook page “Parents and Birth in Denmark” approximately three years ago, this heartwarming photo has resurfaced, garnering renewed attention and appreciation.
In recent years, Scandinavian maternity centers have adopted an innovative approach to caring for their newborns.
Known as the “skin-to-skin” method, or “Kangaroo care,” this practice involves placing premature infants in direct contact with their parents’ skin, providing them with warmth, comfort, and emotional support during a critical phase of their early development.
Research from the National Institute of Health indicates that this method effectively reduces pain and stress among preterm babies, facilitating their recovery and overall well-being.
The impact of this approach has been profound, with Scandinavian maternity centers reporting a significant increase in the survival rate of premature infants, from 30% to an impressive 70%.
One poignant image illustrating this method depicts a 5-year-old boy assisting his father, with one newborn nestled on the father’s chest and the other cradled tenderly by the young boy.
In this tranquil moment, all participants appear at ease, experiencing the profound benefits of this gentle and nurturing practice.
As the image continues to resonate across the internet, it serves as a poignant reminder of the power of human connection and the transformative impact of love and compassion in the earliest stages of life.
