    I’ve been paying attention to the longevity space for a while now. Still early days, but I’m hopeful about it. Bryan seems like a genuinely sweet guy. Not that he even needs to be, we just need the data. I don’t think it matters whether or not his motivations are one thing or another as long as the science advances.

      Hi Dustin! I was very surprised by how likeable he was 😂

    I going to say what we are all thinking but won't tell Bryan. "Bryan, you look sick." Bryan is very smart and there's nothing we can say to make him reconsider changing his ways. He's educated and has the best resources and smartest minds in his corner. I know my random TH-cam comment means nothing but I'm going to say it anyway. "Bryan, you need some sun." I don't need to hear how the sun damages your skin and causes aging and cancer. You look sick and you don't look healthy. I'm sure there are unmeasurable nourishing advantages to the real sun that artificial light does not provide. Science answers questions but science hasn't answered everything. I'd like to see Bryan get in a speedo and lay in full sun 30 minutes two times a week. I bet the feeling of sun in his skin would make him feel even better than he already does and give him necessary color in his pale white skin.
    Bryan Johnson is a fascinating living experiment. To be truthful, I'm a doubter, however, I hope he proves me and every other doubter wrong. Reading his face, it does not look like Bryan has reversed aging but instead relies on botox and plastic surgery and hair dye to give the "appearance" of youth. To be fair, he says he doesn't use hair dye but I don't believe him. We see through the BS. None of these things make people look younger but instead makes people look like a plastic version of themselves. Between Bryan's hair dye and pasty white skin he looks like Data from Star Trek. I would like to see Bryan get a tan, however slight, and stop dying his hair. Let his hair grey naturally. This is will be a true indicator of whether or not his experiment is working.
    What's most interesting about Bryan's regimen is whether or not he will slow down the aging of his body. To be fair, Bryan is not trying to look younger but _BE_ younger. Apparently too, Bryan takes many, many pills. His liver has to process everything he puts in his body and I bet this creates liver stress. Hopefully, his experiment will not lead to cancer. This is a crazy goal and, let's be honest people, it's _impossible_ but it's an undertaking we are all onboard to watch.
    My critique aside, I hope he lives his dreams and fulfills his goals. I've just got to be blunt about it. Living healthy is great. Reversing aging is fiction. Even comparing photos of Bryan from 2023 to 2024, he looks one year older. Bryan is a billionaire. It would be better, if he really wanted to reverse the aging process, to throw all of his money into Crispr or some other science which may someday prove useful. Nonetheless, I hope Bryan proves me and every other naysayer wrong. _Long live and prosper._

      Thank you for this comment. You are right in saying he looks sick and i suspect he’s always in pain with all those injections.
      I wish the documentary discussed the effect this transition had on his body. I don’t think he feels as great as he claims.
      I also think his mental health doing this is messed him up. The idea of living forever goes beyond physical .

      @@alwayswatching2295 Yes, his obsession with living forever would, of course, be a full time job, but does he ever give his brain and feeling time for sex, watching butterflies, playing croquet or a game of chess? How about enjoying a sunset or partying in Antigua? On the education side, his background is tech. Though smart I doubt he has the aptitude for science. With his kind of money and access, how about going back to college and studying biology, chemistry, and genetic engineering? Supplements and his surface level routines, like a laser light helmet on his head, will not reverse aging.

    The way he often gives up certain protocols and says 'that didn't work' makes me think he's going to give up the whole thing in a couple years

      Yes or he will get sick from one of these experiments
