Nair Emergency

Guinness Book's Hairiest Man Has Ear Hair Removed to Hear

The world's hairiest man, Chinese rock singer Yu Zhenhuan, underwent ear surgery in Shanghai on Friday to remove hair that was impairing his hearing.

Doctors said Yu had complained of constant earaches and nausea and had lost one-third of his hearing.

Yu's body, save the palms of his hands and the soles of his feet, is covered with an average of 41 hairs per 1 sq cm (0.16 sq inch), a condition doctors term "atavism".

Before I sound completely shallow and without emotion I want to say that - Yes, I know this is a medical condition.

However - - (didn't you see that coming)?

However, are there not numerous hair removal products and procedures to get this under control?

Maybe it's just me - but I can't even stand when a man has hair on his back. I just think it needs to be dealt with.

1 Uptown Girl 1: this is China, not the US. They barely have what we would consider plumbing over there. Nair might not be on the store shelves over there. 2. 41 hairs per square CM is an INSANE amount of hair. The procedures and products you think of may not even handle such an extreme amount of hair. 3. Hey! Some of us men are just fuzzier than the slicked up look you seem to prefer. Maybe some women prefer the more hirsute look.

2 Brian - - I think I made it clear I was stating my opinion and preference. I think that allows it to be understood that I know some people prefer hairy men - - I'm just not one of them. I don't like hair on the back. Some on the chest is fine, but not like it is a sweater or something.
