Man, 66, goes 38 years without bathing in order to have a son

The 66-year-old farmer, who lives near the holy city of Varanasi in the northwest part of India, stopped showering and cutting his hair in 1974 shortly after he got married on advice from a priest. The holy man guaranteed him a son if he stopped showering, according to the Daily Mail. Now 38 years later, Singh has six-foot long dreadlocks from his head, a beard, seven daughters but no son.
I think this guy should face the fact that the advice he received was wrong, and have a long shower. I'm sure his family and neighbors would appreciate it.

    I'd ask for my money back - is the priest still under warranty?

    Maybe his wife doesn't want to have sex with him because his wiener is so dirty and smell like 37 years old cheese? I think that's the reason why he haven't got a son yet!

    Good point, taskemann, but then one has to wonder where the daughters came from. :rolleyes:

    Besides, I have him beat. I haven't had a bath in over 40 years.


    ...not since I first experienced a shower at the age of 10

    I'd rather go 38 years without a shower than just as much as dip my little toe in the Ganges river.
    Saying that, just because he hasn't showered in 38 years doesn't automatically make him a filthy *******. He probably just bathed.

    At least he didn't kill those girls. That's what a lot of other folks do here (yes, even the educated ones).

    This is absolutely weird, probably it is part of their custom, religion and their faith. I admire the sense of discipline and hard work for not taking a single bath for almost 3 decades. Strange!
