Amou Haji, an Iranian exile known as the “dirtiest man in the world,” passed away last month at the age of 94 after being convinced to take a bath.
Haji passed away on Sunday in the village of Dejgah in the southern province of Fars, according to a report in the Iranian news agency.
According to information acquired by Anaedoonline.ng, Haji, a single man, hasn’t taken a bath in more than 50 years.

Local authorities reportedly said that Haji had refrained from taking a shower because she was worried about “becoming sick,” as mentioned in numerous stories.
Haji was said to be covered in soot and to have lived in a cinder-block shanty for more than 60 years without taking a bath or using soap.
The villagers also disclosed that his strange existence and inability to take a bath were caused by “emotional failures in his adolescence.”
According to a 2014 Tehran Times article, “Haji would satisfy his hunger by eating roadkill. Additionally, he smoked a pipe made out of animal waste and held the view that taking a bath and keeping himself clean would make him sick.
However, the nearby villagers managed to convince him last month to take a bath for the first time in more than 50 years, according to information obtained by Anaedoonline.ng.

After Haji’s passing, Kailash Singh ‘Kalau, an Indian man who also refuses to take a bath or wash his teeth for more than 30 years because he wants to please God to give him a son, may hold the unofficial record for not bathing for a significant portion of his life.
Singh ‘Kalau, who is said to reside in Varanasi, claims to have seven daughters and refuses to take a bath because he longs for a son from God.
