Hair to a Title?
WHAT DOES CHINA’S MANE MAN Yu Zhenhuan have in common with famously coiffed actress Julia Roberts? Well, this thespian too wants to be recognized for his acting abilities and not just for the hair - which covers 96 percent of his body.
The 32-year-old is planning hours perhaps weeks of laser-hair removal. “I just want to prove that I have talent and I don’t need this hair to be someone,” said Yu, who first found success in a movie called “Monkey Boy’s Treasure Safari.”
His fame reached hair-raising lengths in 2002 when Guinness Book of World Records declared him the hairiest (er, furriest) person in the world. He has since lost that title to the Wolf Boys of Mexico, Victor and Gabriel Ramos Gomez, who have hair covering 98 percent of their bodies—although after the first 95 percent, you’re really just splitting hairs.
