Man With ‘World’s Longest Hair’ Dies In Vietnam

Tran Van Hay is thought to have had hair up to 6.8 metres long, although it had never been officially measured for a record attempt. It stretched in a thick, matted cord around his body, resembling a massive furry boa constrictor.

A man who may have had the longest hair in the world has died at his home in Vietnam, it has been reported.

 

79-year-old Hay, who lived in the Kien Giang province of southern Vietnam, worked as a herbalist and lived a simple life, according to reports.
However, his hair did cause him some difficulties, notably that he couldn’t take a motorcycle taxi anywhere because he couldn’t fit a helmet around his hair. He had been growing his hair for over fifty years, according to his wife Nguyen Thi Hoa, because he often felt sick after a haircut.
