'Hit by a bus': What 'biohacker' Bryan Johnson thinks will kill him
Millionaire biohacker Bryan Johnson accepts that his critics will laugh if he gets hit by a bus and dies, even as he dedicates his life to the search for immortality.
Bryan Johnson, a billionaire biohacker, has sparked controversy after admitting that a significant portion of the world wants him dead. The 49-year-old, along with his Australian partner, Kate Tolo, remains dedicated to the pursuit of immortality. Johnson recently celebrated his 49th birthday, which seems to clash with his physical and mental vitality.
His girlfriend notes that he feels younger than her, surprising her with his vigor. Tolo, who has joined Johnson on his biohacking journey, is eager to focus on women's health as the next phase of their mission. Biohacking involves extreme anti-aging and longevity practices, and Johnson is their movement's leading advocate. He has engaged in various high-profile experiments, including blood plasma sharing with his son and father, tracking erection data, and even claiming to have cloned himself.
However, the scientific community dismisses the latter as human cloning is scientifically impossible. Johnson emphasizes that their goal is to communicate the importance of living longer and healthier lives, while Tolo is meticulously tracking her menstrual cycle among numerous other health metrics. Despite the skepticism and controversy surrounding their methods, Johnson and Tolo insist their actions are motivated by genuine concern for people's health rather than financial gain.
