    If you want to live longer, life has to be worth it.

    No, he doesn’t get younger. There it is, I just saved you wasting 12 minutes of your ltime.

    Spending 20 hours a day inside trying to look young, completely wasting the time he has...the irony.
  • @rudegirlnycloy
    Bryan Johnson is 46. He looks fit but not younger than his years.

    I think society puts too much emphasis on living longer, and not enough on quality of life. I'd rather live a shorter but happier life than a longer but miserable one.

    No, of course he isn't. It's literally impossible without a wide range of technologies, such as telemere-extending, and a mechanism for identifying and repairing individual gene mutations based on pure reference DNA, that do not exist.

    I liked how the camera man broke into their house and stealthily filmed the entrance door so that they could film the "first meet" from the inside.
  • Time does not wait for anybody. That is why you must make every second count.
  • He looks like he is 45-48 years old. If he is 60, that definitely works 👍

    Yea all this biohacking is a complete non-sense. Slowing down aging is one thing but it can't be reversed.

    My great grandmother lived till 1988 aged 94. She lived through 4 wars on the Balkans, had 2 kids and worked as a math teacher. Till the end she could run up and down the stairs, and she remained sharp and clear brained

    This guy looks creepier and older than everytime I see him, so no, no he isn’t.
