Daring second year gets his hairy chest fully waxed

‘Please hold my hand somebody’


A bold second year got his chest waxed, shaved and trimmed to raise money for a volunteering service to help fight abject poverty worldwide.

George Snape, who was recently crowned The Tab Newcastle’s second ‘Biggest Name on Campus’, could be heard singing “Titanium” by David Guetta, “Afterglow” by Wilkinson, “Whip My Hair” by Willow Smith and a host of other songs in a bid to keep his mind off the pain.

Izzy Procter-Smith, who was helping strip George of his chest hair, said: “He was screaming before we’d even pulled off the first one. 

“It was obvious he’d been shredding for weeks leading up to the wax”.

Another loyal friend Harriet Beaty said: “It took us 3 and a half hours to wax his chest in total. We took breaks because he was getting very hot”.

George told The Tab he had to take paracetamol to numb away the pain.

When asked why he didn’t do something less painful to raise money he said: “I don’t know, because it shows my commitment to the worthy cause that is my charity and helps my fundraising. I had to sing to get through the pain”.

The reckless Urban Planner has had around 50 donations to his just giving page where he’s aiming to raise money for visit to Machakos.

He says he plans to “help make a difference to the livelihood of the locals” by “educating locals on different aspects of Agri-business, which will in turn allow them to live better, more sustainable and prosperous lives in the future!

I whip my hair back and forth

“My target is £800 and every penny goes direct to the VSO charity that I’ll be volunteering with out there.

“They will use this vital money to buy resources for the sustainable development programmes they run worldwide. So your donation will make a real difference!”
