大家应该没有忘记这个男人吧?
(示意图)
他名叫Bryan Johnson,痴迷于长生不老,为此不惜在自己身上进行各种奇怪的实验。
大家对他的各种神奇操作应该也已经不陌生了。
在出售了公司,赚了8亿美元后,Bryan花费数百万逆转年龄。
他昼伏夜出,减少紫外线照射的时长,每天服用上百种营养品,每个月吃上百公斤的蔬菜泥,还得拍摄了超过30000张肠道内部的照片,一切都是为了检测自己的健康。
后来他更加上头了,非要带着自己的儿子和老父亲大玩三代血液交换治疗。他把儿子的血浆输入自己的血管,希望年轻的血液能够修复因为年龄而导致的细胞损伤,降低他身体的年龄。
当然,事后发现没啥用……
但Bryan自己表示,在采用了这样的生活方式之后,他的身体真的年轻了好几岁,47岁的年龄,37岁的心脏,28岁的皮肤和18岁的健康体魄。
(Bryan Johnson)
不过在追寻返老还童的道路上,Bryan也不是一帆风顺的,他也会迷路。
比如最近,他迷上了脂肪填充手术。
这主要是因为他之前的生活计划出了点问题,为了保持健康,Bryan每天将卡路里的摄入了严格控制在1950卡,比NHS推荐的数值少了大约500卡路里。
热量摄入不足,导致Bryan非常消瘦,脸上的皮都紧紧地贴在骨头上。
他对这种外貌很不满意,因为这样看起来就不年轻了。
(脸颊消瘦的Bryan)
“这样的我看起来很憔悴,大家都以为我快死了。
所以我们发现,面部脂肪对人们的观感非常重要,如果我的面部不够圆润,那我的身体再好,别人也不会觉得我年轻。”
所以他的“返老还童”团队想了个新办法,就是从自己大腿和腹部等身体部位提取脂肪细胞,将这些细胞注射到面部,以刺激和恢复面部的体积,让脸上的皮肤更加紧致光滑。
(脸颊消瘦的Bryan)
想法是挺新奇的,但实施起来就有了问题。
他身上没有足够的脂肪填充到脸上,所以他必须使用捐赠者的脂肪。
结果不知道是脂肪出了问题还是手术过程存在纰漏,在手术之后,Bryan的脸很快就变形了……
他在社交媒体上承认,在手术30分钟后,不良反应出现了:
“注射之后,我的脸开始肿了起来,然后情况越来越糟,最后我什么都看不见了,这是一次非常严重的过敏反应。”
(Bryan的面部变化)
他还特意给当天下午要见的人通了电话,算是打了个预防针:
“你今天可能认不出我了……我想我没事,我希望我没事……那啥,你是否接受过什么急救措施的培训?”
网友看到这面相,也是纷纷开起了吐槽模式:
“为了追求永生,老哥你变成了Billy啊。”
(图片来自twitter)
“前人栽树,后人乘凉啊……”

不过对他来说还算幸运,这手术没有造成持久的损害。
七天之后,他的脸慢慢恢复了正常,Bryan也没觉得后怕,他表示,自己已经重新回到了战场,准备开始下一次的计划了。
对于Bryan的行为,网友们真的是不理解:
“我对你非常有信心,你肯定能在平均寿命很多年之前就死于你的各种折腾。”
(图片来自twitter)
“他声称自己现在拥有37岁的心、28岁的皮肤、18岁的身体……还有1岁孩子的脑子……
(图片来自Dailymail)
“这恰恰说明他的新生活方式不能抗衰老啊,不然的话,他就不用再动手术填充自己的脸了。
他的生活根本就不是抗衰老,而是一种隐藏衰老的美容手术而已,我觉得这两者不可混为一谈。”
(图片来自Dailymail)
“每天得服用100份补充剂、避免日晒、输血、严格计算卡路里、补充营养……
所有的一切都只是为了让自己看起来年轻几岁,真是浪费生命,多么空虚可悲的人生啊。”
(图片来自Dailymail)
“最讽刺的是,大多数人自然衰老的样子看起来反而比整容之后的状态更顺眼。”
(图片来自Dailymail)
“所以他什么时候才有时间享受他‘延长’之后的生活呢?”
(图片来自Dailymail)
虽然不理解Bryan的做法,但这毕竟都是个人选择,通过折腾自己帮大众认清现实也是件好事。
老哥这放心、大胆、无休止地折腾自己的尽头,还挺有科研精神的……

Sourced from Dailymail——Anti-ageing 'guru' Bryan Johnson shares shocking selfie showing how his latest attempt to turn back the clock went disastrously wrong
Biohacker Bryan Johnson revealed shocking images of an allergic reaction he had to an 'age defying' treatment that involved injecting another person's fat into his face.
The 47-year-old multimillionaire, who is known for his outlandish anti-ageing treatments, sought the jabs as part of his quest for a 'baby face'.
But the procedure went disasterously wrong, resulting in extreme swelling of his upper face that caused him to temporarily lose his vision.
Sharing the experience with his 953,000 Instagram followers, the entrepreneur said the unfortunate reaction kicked in 30 minutes after the treatment.
'Immediately following the injections, my face began to blow up. And then it got worse, and worse, and worse until I couldn't even see.
'It was a severe allergic reaction.'
He added that he called a colleague who he was scheduled to meet and warned: 'You may not recognize me today.
'I think I'm ok. I hope I'm ok. If I'm not ok, are you by chance trained to perform any life-saving actions?'
Mr Johnson is no stranger to elaborate and risky wellness stunts.
Last year Mr Johnson enlisted his teenage son and his father for a tri-generational blood swapping treatment in an attempt to 'youthify' their bodies.
The procedure saw Johnson and son, Talmage, have a litre of blood drained.
Talmage's plasma was fed into Johnson's veins, while Mr Johnson's plasma was injected into Richard. He theorises that the infusion of 'young blood' can repair age-related damage to cells, reducing one's biological age.
The biohacker has also claimed that he takes a hundred daily supplements, eats 70 pounds of pureed vegetables a month and has had more than 33,000 images taken of the inside of his bowels.
His latest procedure involved extracting fat cells from parts of the body like the thighs and abdomen, and injecting them into the less voluminous face to stimulate and restore volume in the skin.
However, Mr Johnson explained that he did not have enough fat on his own body, forcing him to use a donor.
He puts his slim physique down to a strict daily calorie consumption of 1,950 (roughly 500 less than the number recommended by the NHS).
This, he said, has drastically reduced his body fat — including on his face.
However Mr Johnson admitted to his Instagram followers that the eating plan made him 'look gaunt'.
'People thought I was on the brink of death,' he said.
'Facial fat, we discovered, is pretty important for how people perceive youth.
'It didn't matter how good my biomarkers were if I didn't have face fat.'
Although the procedure didn't go to plan, there was no lasting damage, Mr Johnson said.
'Seven days later my face was back to normal and we were back in the trenches reformulating plans for our next attempt.'
The California-based biohacker, who made $800 million after selling his company Braintree, has spent million of dollars attempting to reverse his physical age.
He claims he now has the heart of a 37-year-old, the skin of a 28-year-old, and the fitness of an 18-year-old after adopting the highly-regimented program in 2020.
The tech mogul has also previously spoken about his skincare routine, admitting that he tries to minimise the time he spends in the sun by only venturing out in the early mornings or in the evenings when the UV index is low.
