Harrison Ford ‘Deforests’ His Chest Hair for the Environment

Harrison Ford invited cameras along on an expedition, and it wasn’t the fun Indiana Jones kind: he was having his chest waxed. Considering that Harrison isn’t the type of guy you’d expect to see on television undergoing intensive man-grooming, naturally, there’s a good reason for all this. It’s all for the good of the environment!

Access Hollywood cameras taped Harrison as he endured the painful process, explaining that his aim was to “shock people into going green”. As vice chair of Conservation International, Harrison wants people to be more aware of the effects of deforestation.

From Conservation.org:

We believe that the Earth’s natural heritage must be maintained if future generations are to thrive spiritually, culturally, and economically. Our mission is to conserve the Earth’s living heritage - our global biodiversity - and to demonstrate that human societies are able to live harmoniously with nature.

In a culture where dim airhead celebrities flash their no-no parts at cameras for attention, it’s refreshing that a shock-value stunt actually has a good purpose.
