longest time without bathing or showering

Hey guys,
so whats the longest time you have gone without washing?
I have gone as long as a week and a half…
Anyone more than that? One guy went without showering for 3 weeks.
I heard it can be healthy…

According to legend, Miyamoto Musashi never bathed.

I recommend you do the same.

I see this thread going into the same direction as that thread about worst hygene on the mat.

Bathing is good.

Does wiping myself down with baby wipes count, 'cuz I can honestly say that if it doesn’t, ten weeks.

LOL!!! I do that too, when I have to get out the door quick and I don’t have time to shower.

Does a whore’s bath count? (you know, when you just wash the smelly bits)

No.

No it does not.

Not bathing, isn’t that just begging to contract Staph or to give it to someone else?

Two weeks while cross country skiing and snow camping in Yosemite. The funk in a tent with four other guys was brutal. Most of the time, though, it was too cold for us to really stink. Once we got back down to the valley and temps above freezing, we really started to stink fast.

20 days on maneuvers in Germany. Closest I got to a shower was a wipe down with some soapy water and a cloth. I burned my underwear after we got back to barracks.
