Quest to Be Immortal
The pursuit of longevity has been taken to new heights by millionaire tech entrepreneur Bryan Johnson, who is at the forefront of the movement looking for new ways to reverse aging and extend health span, and live to age 150.
He grew up as a Mormon in Utah. He was successful signing people up for credit cards in his early years - door to door. In 2007, he founded his own payment processing company - Braintree - which acquired the startup Venmo and, in 2013, was itself acquired by eBay for $800 million.
Iβm 21 years his senior. I canβt take advice from a kid about long life. A kid whoβs spent more than $6 million on this project.
This guy is truly on a mission. After an attempt to inject a βdonorβsβ fat into his face to attain a more youthful look, his face became all puffy and red. βPeople thought I was on the brink of death.β he even lost his vision temporarily. Kind of ironic for a guy that sells βDonβt Dieβ T-shirts.
Heβs is just 47.
He restricts his calorie intake to 1950 calories a day. A man his age should have 2200 to 3000. Add hundreds more if youβre physical. He does intense exercises every day.
What else does Bryan do?
He tracks his urine flow rate as part of his efforts to reverse aging. He tracks his flow rate! Who doesnβt?
His anti-aging efforts include a strict vegan diet, over 100 supplements, intense exercise, and medical interventions. He gets blood transfusions from his teenage son. He has 30 doctors on staff to monitor his body's functions. He publicizes his test results so anyone can see images of his bowels or learn the duration of his nighttime erections. He lowers his body temperature to 34.8ΒΊC. Less than 35ΒΊC is the definition of hypothermia. βIt is when body energy is exhausted that hypothermia becomes potentially life-threatening.β He could be literally killing himself, although he has 6 pack abs.
He sells stuff:
His online store sells Extra Virgin Olive Oil, a Longevity Mix (with 13 health actives to support energy, metabolism, recovery, & vitality), 8 cellular repair ingredients, 6 types of supplements, a blueprint stack (best-selling longevity kit used by Bryan Johnson, 70+ health actives), a bunch of meals and snacks, Macadamia nuts, bars, puree on the go, and nut butter. All with the disclosure statement that βThese statements have not been evaluated by the Food and Drug Administration. This product is not intended to diagnose, treat, cure, or prevent any disease. Results may vary.β He also sells T-shirts and hats that say βDonβt Dieβ. His slogan.
TLDR:
Guy tracks the flow of his pee.
Studies his stool.
Injects fat into his face.
Takes more than 100 supplements per day.
Restricts his calories to 1950/day.
Has 30 doctors on staff.
He gets blood transfusions from his teenage son.
Keeps his body temperature at 34.8C.
Injects Botox into his penis.
In my opinion: Until a guy can make it to the age of at least 130, then people should take his advice. Otherwise, we are not built to live until we are 150. If we were, there would be people 150 years old now. No?
I think itβs all about how well you live than how long you live.
Let me know in the comments if you think he is Cuckoo for CocoPuffs or smarter than the average baby faced bear Β―\_(γ)_/Β―

βMy ultimate goal? Donβt dieβ: Bryan Johnson on his controversial plan to live for ever
His Marketing officer named Kate Tolo who is a 27 y/o female version of Bryan. She calls herself Blueprint XX.
Another woman named Kayla Barnes has also been called a female version of Bryan Johnson.
I remember this guy and surprised he is still at it. Is he or is this an old article, hard to say. But spending that much time, do that many things seems a waste of a current life. But I am not judging.
In today's nutty world I wouldn't want to live to 150.
