A teenager from Nepal has become the talk of the town thanks to his 70 cm hair which grew on his back.
A report by a foreign news agency stated that the 16-year-old Deshant Adhikari found the hair which is from his coccyx days after his birth.
He was taken to several hospitals in an attempt to find treatment. However, a priest said it was because of a religious deity. The parents were quite happy after hearing it.
He now proudly flaunts his hair and does not have a problem with it. He admitted to being embarrassed by it at first.
“My parents used to now show the tail and I agreed, now I don’t feel any discomfort showing it,” he said in a YouTube video. “A video of me went viral on Tik Tok and now a lot of people know me as the boy with a tail and I feel good about it.”
