A man in Israel lived with a beard for 14 years, then he shaved the whole thing off. Here's how his family reacted after seeing him.

When I was a kid, my father shaved his mustache. He was immediately ordered by my horrified mother to grow it back. Honestly, he looked terrible, he's just a mustache kind of dad. Decades later, I experienced a mild psychotic episode when I shaved my own beard, which had become part of my mystique. But this guy took it to a whole other level.

His children have never seen him without it, and it's obviously been a long time since his father, mother, sister, and wife have seen him clean-shaven. Naturally, he's a little apprehensive.
