The Daily Telegraph reports that the waxed mustache of Surrealist painter Salvador Dali has been voted the most famous, according to a survey of 14,144 British men, conducted by MSN HIM.

Hulk Hogan’s handlebar mustache came second, and Albert Einstein’s whiskers third.

Of his mustache, Dali once wrote:

“Since I don’t smoke, I decided to grow a mustache – it’s better for the health. However, I always carried a jewel-studded cigarette case in which, instead of cigarettes, were carefully placed several mustaches, Adolphe Menjou style. I offered them politely to my friends:

‘Mustache? Mustache? Mustache?’

“Nobody dared touch them. This was my test regarding the sacred aspect of mustaches.”

The top 10 Most Famous Mustaches are:

Salvador Dali - artist (24 per cent)
Hulk Hogan - wrestler (18 per cent)
Albert Einstein - scientist (13 per cent)
Friedrich Nietzsche - philosopher (12 per cent)
Charlie Chaplin - actor (11 per cent)
Freddie Mercury - musician (11 per cent)
Daley Thompson - athlete (4 per cent)
Bruce Forsyth - TV entertainer (3 per cent)
Jimi Hendrix - musician (3 per cent)
Ian Botham - cricketer (1 per cent)
