Years of not bathing had left him with skin covered in "soot and pus", IRNA said, while his diet had consisted of rotten meat and unsanitary water drunk from an old oil can.


And I bet he never got Covid either!

He died aged 94 - that's impressive. They say that as kids we played in the dirt which gave a natural immunity to infections: this guy took it to a whole new level.

A hermit dubbed by media as "the world's dirtiest man" has died at the age of 94, just months after having his first wash in decades.
Iranian Amou Haji had refused to use soap and water for more than half a century, fearing it would make him sick.
But, local media say, Amou Haji finally succumbed to pressure and washed a few months ago.
According to Iran's IRNA news agency, he became ill shortly afterwards and died on Sunday.


So he was right!

Probably not, if no-one would go near him!
