This may seem a bit bizarre, but Yu Zhenhuan was officially named the world's hairiest man by the Guinness Book of Records in 2002. He suffers from a rare condition with hair covering 96 per cent of his body. Yu is also an actor, in actuality since childhood, and so his bizare look actually supplies him with a livelihood instead of being any kind of source for shame. In fact, Yu doesn't mind it at all. |
Yu made his debut in a film The adventure of Little Hairy when he was seven. The script was specially created for him. He also participated in other dramas including the popular Journey to the West, produced by the Chinese. |
However, recently Yu removed an important part of the hair from his chest and stomach. But each hair had to be burnt with laser and the procedure is quite painful. |
But it’s ok as long as his girlfriend is by his side and helping him to get through it And judging by the photographs, they are a very happy couple!
