Humans do shed skin. When skin cells die, it falls off your body it's called

Desquamation. Every hour nearly 40,000 skin cells are shed, and it takes one skin cell about a month to complete the desquamation process. In fact, person from 2009 that says humans don't shed, the dust in your home is mostly dead skin cells. Your dead skin literally falls off your body.
