Australian librarian has harvested lint from his belly button for 26 years

In terms of rare collections, this one gets top marks. An Australian man has made a habit of collecting his navel lint, earning him a place in the Guinness Book of World Records.

The Australian librarian started “harvesting” his fluff in 1984, at a youth hostel in Brisbane. After 26 years, the complete collection now weighs 22.1 grams, or .77 ounces.

WHAT THE FUCK!?! I dont even have words to express the level of WTF going through my mind at this moment.
 
and this deserves posting why exactly?

seriously dude...

must be better stuff out there...

fuck it man
 
I must admit its pretty disgusting, its been doing the rounds on the interwebz and was mentioned on the radio today.
 
Over and above the actual WTFness of this whole story, what the hell is up with the colour arranging??? Seriously.
 
Well the fluff is arranged by year, naval fluff is just small threads that fall from your shirt into your naval and so the colour is then determined by the type of shirts you wear and their colour. He might have been wearing a specific type or colour shirt in that time period displayed on the jars.

I read somewhere that Naval fluff actually comes from your underwear.
