60 years without a bath.
I remember, as a youngster, having Saturday as bath day. This guy wins a prize!

He's gone...wouldn't want to be a pall-bearer for him.
He did alright to make it to 94.

"Emotional setbacks in his youth" reportedly kept him from bathing, according to villagers cited by The Guardian. He also allegedly ate roadkill and had been photographed smoking multiple cigarettes at once."

Ok. Bring the smokes, some crusty road pizza and no more baths for me!
94 years? I should be so lucky. |

His blood chemistry might be quite interesting.

Reported that he rolled his own using animal dung as tobacco.
Something tells me there was untreated mental illness. |

"He had refused to bathe for more than 60 years, fearing it would make him sick."
Seems he was right. Maybe he'd seen the future and knew that he'd die after a bath.

I even take a shower to go to the gym. I'm a clean freak when it comes to personal hygiene. .

Get off my lawn!

Come to think about it, I likely have not had a bath in 60 years myself. I do take a shower every morning, and sometimes a second shower in the afternoon after working in the garage on on the yard.
But to sit in a tub of water and have a bath is not something I have done since I was a kid. Showers are much faster, and easier. And never a bathtub ring. Sitting in a hot tub has never appealed to me. A stew pot of other people yuck.

I read that he finally had a bath, then died a couple of weeks later. Guess I'll stick to showers.
