BEIJING - The world’s “hairiest man” was recovering at a Shanghai hospital Saturday after undergoing an operation to remove hair that had impaired his hearing, a hospital official and state media said on Saturday.
Yu Zhenhuan, a 26-year-old Chinese singer, had lost one-third of his hearing due to excess hair inside his ears and had suffered from constant headaches, the Xinhua news agency reported.
