Biohacker billionaire Bryan Johnson has issued a surprising apology to those that find him “insufferable”. He said “sorry” after a series of bizarre stunts in his quest to live forever.
The former venture capitalist turned human experiment, 48, has gone viral on multiple occasions for giving extremely detailed descriptions of everything from his wife’s vagina to injecting his own body with his son’s blood plasma.
He has rarely seemed too bothered by those left shocked and appalled by his odd antics. But the business tycoon, whose slogan is “don’t die“, appeared to show a moment of understanding for those that are not on board with his wild quest for eternal life.
Writing to his nearly two million followers on X, he wrote: “I know some of you find me insufferable – sorry about that.” But his post was met by a mixed reaction, with some agreeing with the need for his apology while others wading in that he has nothing to be sorry for.
One user who has clearly not been impressed by some of Johnson’s stunts wrote: “It’s nothing personal. Just stop misleading people”. Another added: “Sometimes some of the stuff you do is super cringe I still like the content overall.”
Others were more praising of Johnson’s activities, with one user saying that his social media content had grown on them like “an acquired taste” while another added, “don’t apologise for being authentic it is a superpower”
Another simply wrote: “Don’t apologise to the haters. They’re just miserable people trying to drag you down to their level of self-hatred.”
His stunts have wildly ranged in their seeming degree of scientific merit. In a weird recent stunt, the biohacking eccentric announced he had “cloned himself” as a baby so that he could harvest its organs.
Taking to Twitter, he proudly proclaimed: “With this clone, I can become my own blood boy, test therapies on the clone, grow organs for transplantation, develop new treatments, and inject young cells.”
He also used to vampirically inject his own teenage son’s blood plasma because he thought it’d keep him young. But he stopped this process last year because he said it “didn’t have any anti-ageing benefits”, although he did continue to measure and compare his and his son’s penises, posting their “night-time erection data”.
Johnson also stunned fans earlier this year by publishing his partner’s ‘oral sex report’ and announcing that her vagina ranked in the top 1% based on medical testing for muscle tone and tissue health.
He said his girlfriend Kate Tolo’s sample was “dominated by the single most protective bacterial species a vagina can host”. He posted on X: “Just gave Kate oral sex. Goodnight everyone.”
