The dude gets weekly dick injections which he classifies as 9.5 out of 10 on a pain scale.
Weekly.
Dude is a fucking moron.
9.5 out of 10. In his dick.
Has anyone asked him why he wants to live forever if that’s what it takes?
“You get to live forever but in exchange you have to get incredibly painful injections in your dick on a daily basis.”
Sounds like a cursed genie wish.
Absofuckinglutely not
What’s the quality of my life? Like 20s forever or do I still age?
Right? Miss me with that dick pain immortality.
Probably because he knows he can’t take his wealth with him in death.
What’s the point of being pointlessly wealthy if you can’t be pointlessly wealthy forever?
My guess is he wants to live forever because he feels he has made no contribution to the world, or does not feel a sense of fulfillment and purpose from raising his family. Maybe he feels cracking the secret could be his contribution, or maybe he thinks he can find meaning in his life, given enough time.
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=3bFnZsvh6pw posits that it’s because he was raised believing in eternal life through the church, and lost his faith but still wants eternal life.
Props for linking to that video; it’s so good.
I saw that video on Nebula and it was the first I’d heard of this dude, but I still found the video fascinating.
thanks for recommending this channel, seems right up my alley!
Get it early on Nebula! https://nebula.tv/lilyalexandre
If you haven’t tried Nebula, PM me, and I think I still have a guest pass for a free week.
It sounds like the dude just has a CBT fetish and doesn’t want to admit it.
It’s like those showerthought ultimatums : You can choose to gain eternal life, but every day your dick is the subject of the worst pain you’ve ever felt.
I’m going to laugh when he dies of self inflicted dick infection.
I truly hope that these people start getting massive organ failure and shit because of all of this experimental garbage they put into their bodies.
These erections are rigged!
You meant to say “ligged”, right?
I’m saying someone may have toyed with the erection results.
Erectioneering, you say?
Diddling erection results is dangerous
i saw him on two separate youtube channels: Magnus Midtbø (norwegian climber) and Will Tennyson (bodybuilding vlogger)
in both cases, they were invited by Bryan Johnson to his lair, going through his routine. it felt like a surreal cringe fest of zero social awareness. Bryan was permanently looking for some kind of validation, comparing his skills to his guest, or asking the various personal trainers / doctors if he beat some younger age category, etc.
everything he does can’t be healthy and i wouldn’t call what he does “living”. he’s bound to a 24h program where everything is planned down to the minute.
Dorian Gray’s dilemma.
Sucks for this guy. I’m close to his age, I drank and smoked heavily for years and I look about the age he does
While I do kind of like the idea of having data on random bodily functions like erections, can’t say I’d be willing to share that data with my parents or the world.
I couldn’t get through more than about a paragraph before getting prompted to subscribe so I’m still little confused.
Why get measurements of your child’s erections in the first place? How does this son feel about his PHI being shared all over the internet? Hard to imagine anyone being okay with that.
i didn’t get any prompts, and read the article, so i’ll quickly answer.
- the guy is obsessed with penile behaviour as a measure of overall health, for some reason, and measured the nocturnal boners of himself, as well as his 19 year old son, as a point of comparison.
- the son shared his dick metrics himself. seems he’s well and fully invested in his father’s phallocentric longevity scheme.
Phallocentric longevity scheme is my new band name. PLS!
On a related note, I was just searching fdroid for a signal app. I didn’t find one, but I did find an app that tracks your Morning Wood
Didn’t think you were serious.
Yep, thats the one
Edit: lol you’re downloading it?
lol you’re downloading it
As they should
Why? Its just going to show that I wake up with an erection 100% of the time. What’s there to chart?
Eventually that may change. Perhaps you start a new medication that changes your body or hormones. You could use this app to give accurate info to your doctor.
That’s valid, thanks
encouraging collaboration and innovation
Yes, let’s “collaborate” in regard to our morning wood.
“Hay bro, would you mind ‘innovating’ with my erection this morning? No homo”
Lol and you’re downloading it!
Dafuq kind of insight do i gain from it…
I guess it might help if you’re concerned about ED, since experiencing less (or no) morning woods can be a sign of physical ED.
Really ? I don’t think I ever experienced this regularly ever. I have otherwise no issues getting it up
Huh, ED caused by depression…never knew those were linked.
Interesting info, thank you.
I’d be shocked if they weren’t linked.
I never really read up on it, even though i should.
The wife’s chronically depressed and i’m not doing much better either.
And ED can be exacerbated by certain depression meds. There’s nothing wrong with my dick. If my wife were to grab it, it would work just fine I just don’t even think about sex every day and very rarely masturbate.
I knew about meds messing with your sex drive, been through that myself.
Does it require a sensor? Do they wear a fleshlight to bed? Is it camera based?
So many questions.
Also, theDailyBeast reporting on morning wood is quality humor from the matrix.
I’m sure it works like period trackers. You input the data manually

It’s completely normal father-son bonding. Find a different slant.
If your oncle on FB does its wierd , but once your wierd oncle becomes milliardaire, he ll be called Anti Aging Zealot all over Internet
Lol idk why but I find it so funny that you are speaking English with French nouns.
That’s just Canada
What a fucking weirdo.
Apparently he is a narcissist
…who the fuck cares?
Jesus fuck. Why would anyone want to live forever, anyway?
I want optional mortality, yes. https://www.fullmoon.nu/Resurrection/PrimarySpecies.html
But, I gotta say, I don’t want to spend literally all my time just surviving, which seems to be this anti-aging zealot’s day.
Living day-to-day life like a Diablo minmaxer.
Would you like to live one extra year than your otherwise normal lifespan? Yeah?
Yeah that’s pretty much why.
No, there’s too many dudes like him on the planet.
Clear them out and we’ll readdress the question.
i think most people don’t really want to die. and they like living for all sorts of reasons. i hope you can think of at least a few reasons you’d like to go on living as well.
I don’t want to die, but living forever sounds exhausting.
if you don’t want to die now, and you don’t want to live forever, is there some specific age/time you would like to die, if you didn’t have to?
It’s an interesting question.
After thinking over it briefly, I believe I’d like to die when I’m ready to die. I can’t declare in advance when that would be age- or time-wise and I can’t even necessarily define the conditions that would make me feel ready, as I’ve never yet felt ready to die.
Right now, I have a little kid and a decent quality of life. I don’t want to die until my kid can be on their own and I don’t think I’d want to live after my quality of life declined past a certain point though, again, I can’t say yet what that point would be.
I’m sorry, I know this is an unsatisfactory answer, but it’s the best I have at the moment. I’ll try to pontificate on the matter and get back to you if I come up with anything better.
do you want your kid to die someday as well? what if your quality of life didn’t have to become bad? immortalists such as myself (that is, people who don’t want people to have to die, and support scientific efforts to make that a reality) don’t want people to just, like, persist in a state of unending geriatric decrepitude, we want folks to be able to live as long and healthy lives as possible.
I’ve been ruminating on this comment for many of the last 21 hours, in part because I want to give a good answer and in part because I suspect I see the direction of the conversation.
I think the answer is, of course I don’t want my kid to die, but I want them to be able to without suffering when and if they’re ready to and mature enough to make such a decision.
QoL not declining kind of seems like a fantasy to me. Taken literally, living “forever” means that you’d outlive the planet, the sun, ultimately the universe. Sounds like a lonely and eventually boring life though, yes, you’d likely experience a lot of thrills before that point. IIRC, among other media, there’s a section of H2G2 that briefly addresses this.
Taken less literally, there are mornings during which I wake up and think “I have to go through with this for how much longer?” If I could spend the rest of time without physical or mental health once dipping, I might feel differently, but especially the latter seems unlikely to me (even if it is a laudable goal).
For anyone reading this with concern, I’m happy with my life, I’m not depressed and I’m not at risk. If you were going to say something about that, thank you for caring, but it’s not necessary.
edit: Added detail.
I don’t wanna live forever. But the act of dying is usually pretty horrible, so I wanna push that off as long as possible.
pushing off dying as long as possible, if done successfully, is living forever though? do you not see the contradiction in what you wrote?
No. Humans aren’t psychically able to be immortal without genetic engineering, which as far as the public knows, we don’t have yet. Certain death is currently hard codded into our genes. Since I wasn’t genetically modified as an embryo, I cannot live forever.
i feel like you’ve shifted the goalposts, here. previously, you said you didn’t want to live forever, now you’re just saying you can’t live forever.
also, we absolutely do have genetic engineering. it’s been a thing since the 70s. the covid-19 vaccine, for instance, was a feat of genetic engineering. furthermore, techniques such as gene therapy can indeed modify the genetic information of adults.
P.S. i assumed you meant physically, rather than psychically, but if you did mean the latter, then i have no idea what you’re talking about.
I can’t live forever. But I also don’t want to. The two aren’t mutually exclusive. And yes, we have genetic engineering, but nothing so far that would make humans immortal.
i know they aren’t mutually exclusive claims, they just seem unrelated, which is why your shift in topic seemed unexpected to me. maybe they’re not for you? do you want to die eventually because you think you have to anyway? is this a general policy of not wanting things that seem difficult to get? personally, there’s loads of things i’d like that are currently anywhere from difficult to impossible to achieve.
i just can’t bring myself to see the prospect of everyone i know and love withering away and ceasing to exist within a century as anything other than a horrible tragedy. maybe it’s unavoidable (though i have some hope that it isn’t), but that doesn’t mean i have to like it.
Idk, if I could live forever, I’d like to witness the history of humanity, ala Doctor Who.
Freddy, is that you?
He looks healthy enough to be a real snack for whoever gets to eat the rich
Just not the dick. According to this article he gets weekly penis injections, but it doesn’t say of what.
Immortality is a daily pain in the dick.
