Dude is only 51? Looks in his 70s to me.
I thought the same exact thing.
The body is good but the face is a mess.
😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂@@rajmathew6220
I know!!!! I thought he is in his late 60s. If he is not doing this, what would he be looking like?!?!?!?!
I was saying the same thing 😅
51? LOOKS LIKE 65 TO ME
lol true that
all this to look 70 >D
how about it lol
making money on insecurities since forever
Just another example of the ultra wealthy wasting their millions for purely narcissistic purposes.
When I was 20 folks in their 50’s were promoting ways to live till 150 and they have all died. Ponce Deleon was searching for the fountain of youth but never found it. I have no problem living in a way that shows respect for the gift of life but I wouldn’t obsess over it, since that will lead to a very sad old age. I am old and live one day at a time and today is a good day!
I'm disappointed by the obsession on biohacking, since there's nothing proven beyond reasonable diet and exercise to deliver significant gains in healthy lifespan. It also distracts from very legitimate medical research targeting aspects of the biology of aging to improve human health; such researchers and companies will go through clinical trials and regulatory approval, not direct-to-consumer marketing.
51? His face looks 70 at least. Imagine what that’s gonna look like at 108.🥴
He actually said 180🙄
Narcissistic idea
😅me eating peanut M&Ms and watching this @62….
Best biohack: don’t be lazy, keep your mind going, enough aerobic exercise, get necessary vitamins and minerals, don’t smoke, no illicit drugs, question any prescribed drugs, minimal alcohol, eat some veggies everyday, essential fatty acids, good fats like quality olive oil, quality chocolate, avoid getting too fat. Some dark seaweed and seafood, but not tuna or whale meat because of mercury. Everything else is fine tuning. It will improve the years you have, not necessarily extend them.
Nice tips. + good sleep!
And enjoy your imperfect life.
He's 1 year older than me? If that's the case I'm going to keep doing nothing.
Same here...I think it's mostly genetic.
51…. Babes it’s not working
Be nice
ah yes. people with more money than brains.
Money is at the job if you are able bodied
@@firstlast8258 bot spotted
Why would you want to spend any longer on this planet
Better than being underground rotting
Because being alive is awesome.
Kids. Maybe grankids. After that, hell nah ✌️ deuces
@@jasondaniels640 Yeah, having 4 grand kids and 8 great grand kids might just about be no longer manageable....
But on the other hand, _having_ 8 great grand parents might result in a lot of cookies.
Sounds slightly suicidal
One big EXPENSIVE PLACEBO. If these wealthy folks want to just throw away money, then pass some on to me. I have a credit card bill and house im trying to pay off. Its one thing to be proactive in taking care of one's health and having a healthy lifestyle but humans CANNOT prevent aging or eventually dying.
ARPA-H has a division called Scalable Solutions Office which has a governmental responsibility to ensure that any of these technologies become affordable and accessible to everyone- regardless of their income, location, etc. It will still be up to the person to decide what they want for themselves, but they have to be accessible. Some good news for a change from our government- wow - imagine that! It’s about time.
Not really if they're being tested... Studies might show a way to live longer, why hold people back?
@@KingBamBam712 Human beings will never be able to accomplish that especially if it requires any amount of discipline or instructions. Just look how so many flipped out in just being required to wear a mask during Covid. Only God(the manufacturer of life) can provide a solution to a long life void of health issues and aging.
Europeans are selfish
He looks early 60’s. My father is early 60’s and looks younger than this guy. Good luck bud…….
I agree.He looks way older.
Rich people are so creepy. Dude who is "51" looks more like 61.
People THINK they want to live forever. Wait until they hit their mid 60s and then see if they still want to live so long.
The purpose is to prevent or ameliorate age-related health decline by targeting the biology of aging. I don't believe biohackers are really accomplishing much beyond what a reasonable diet and exercise offers, but there is other serious medical research in the field of Geroscience.
Wait. He did everything doctors told him to do and then literally changed his diet and physical activity level and lost weight?! Shocking 😂 that’s literally what the doctors tell you to do
Nir Barzilai is an amazing advocate for humanity. He even went to FDA to make the important case that aging is itself a disease and should be researched as such.
I don't understand the logic. The continuity of the experiment should be based on tangible results but the person in the video looks way older than his actual age. Seems to me that the exercising and eating right are the reasons for his body looking the way it does and not everything else. Equinox has always been a shady gym that likes to take advantage of people's gullibility.
Black don’t Crack for most cases just saying
I love to read stories about guys like this in the past who were like "Professor Solomon Gerundy thought that by eating this diet and doing this exercise he would surely be the most long-lived man in history and outlive his great-grandchildren. He died of cancer at 66." If billionaires like Steve Jobs and Paul Allen couldn't cheat death, do you really think you're gonna do it with a few million?
I had a friend who spent huge amounts on supplements. He was healthy and walked a lot. At 85 , his body locked up and stiffened.He was put in a care home and was able to take liquid nutrition. He lasted 5 more years , unable to move. No supplements for me.
The man that said it was narcissistic, hit the bull’s eye!
he is a conformist.
@@paulmuriithi9195 - In what way?
Good luck with longevity in the U.S maybe in places like Greece, Italy, Portugal, Japan. Places with a lower stress (if you already made your money) refined culture, cleaner foods protected by their governments, the U.S. government doesn’t protect our food supply from Jack $h!t. Meats that come from local Farms, killed and processed fresh, Vegetables grown fresh and without chemicals that the U.S. allows but Europe doesn’t. Hardly any fast food restaurants around. Lots more walking, less driving. Less crime, more vacation time. The U.S has too many pitfalls to slip up….too many unhealthy food options everywhere. The same five big beer brands at 90% of grocery/convenience stores, unhealthy snack options, high crime.
Ty ABC News for having on Dave and covering Longevity! ❤
51 yr old Dave looks older than all my uncles in their 70s and as old as my 98 year old grand pa.
I’m all for longevity research and treatments to slow or reduce aging. These people are just weirdos with a bunch of money who can afford to buy snake oil and tell themselves it’s helping. That one Silicon Valley guy has a portrait of himself shirtless in his living room…… not the kind of person I’d be taking health guidance from
“A narcissistic fantasy.” 🤣 Yes, SOOOOOO perfectly said!!! 👍 Dave Asprey is a total narcissist!
To be fair at 21..he did look like he was 41 😮
Oh yeah? I have been following Judith Campisi for more than 30 years. She is one of the foremost longevity and inflammation researchers. She died this year at 75, after a long illness. All this crap about NAD+, resveratrol and all the others makes you MORE vulnerable and NOT less.
Telomere shortening is a well-known hallmark of both cellular senescence and organismal aging. An accelerated rate of telomere attrition is also a common feature of age-related diseases. Therefore, telomere length (TL) has been recognized for a long time as one of the best biomarkers of aging. So untill we can effect this all you can do is live a heath life style
The way these people use the word “Biohacking” like a trendy Buzzword but don’t know what it really means or what actual Biohacking is 🙄
How about take all that money you're wasting and invest in programs/people helping those without? While you're here you will make the world a little bit better. That's how you live forever.
Yes, exactly, however, most of them are way too narcissistic to care about making the world a better place.
What is the point in doing this for a 180 years if most of it is spent by doing so? I would rather have a quality life then a quantity life.
Perfectly healthy and can fall getting out of the shower… and well, you know
Exactly. Anything can happen at any moment!
Best Quote at the end: Biohack our aging in 4 domains. Exercizing, Diet, Sleep, Social Connectivity. All have biology that is proven to change the rates of aging.
I applause that! thank you sir for giving a very common sensical approach
You can start by understanding the genetics and how to reverse engineering your body. This is not new. I remember this over 12 years and biohacking may have potential, but remember your body is not a computer. If something goes wrong, game over.
Considering how insanely complex and more importantly interconnected our organism is, there is no way we are going to understand it well enough in the near future to selectively edit the operating system.
On the other hand, keeping the machine analogy, comprehensive maintenance may be possible. Repair everything that breaks, you are bound to live longer
1:55 51??? I'm 54 and still have most of my hair black. Granted it's just an anecdotal case but clearly he's doing more damage than good. My bet is he's not gonna last till 100 let alone healthily. BTW I'm gonna go with my great-grandpa recipe. He died in 1984 aged 97 and he was pretty much walking till a couple of days prior to. He had the harshest life as a Japanese immigrant on coffee plantations but lived on the simplest but disciplined routine and diet (he just ate boiled carrots, broccolis and other stuffs he grew.)
Longevity Industry will explode upwarde to a trillion dollar market cap
Also.... This video didn't discuss skin care at all. L'Occitane, Herbalfe and Trader Joe's all make fantastic products.
The people in this video look like they have never touched a skin care product in their life.
LMAO someone told him "47? you look 60+" and since then he swore revenge
Only God gives us longevity! Final Answer!
Must be why people are living longer than ever nowadays. because god invented better healthcare and medicine...
Gawd bless Murica 🤓 🖕
@joyce, I completely agree.
@@Alexander_KaleExactly
God is dead.
Quality over quantity.
That’s a hard 51.
Only two hacks: Don't feed your body trash and stay active (mentally, physically, spiritually, emotionally and socially).
I love the idea of people being obsessed with taking care of their bodies.
I support being as healthy as you can be however I don’t understand peoples desire to stay on this earth any longer than needed.
Death is the beginning not the ending.
Ok these are the facts. Your cells still age irrespective of lifestyle. There are 9 hallmarks of aging, as of yet we are unable to prevent even one of them. That is the truth.
That 51 year old looks like he’s 70..!
Should have read the room…. You all think the same thing…. !! How about when he is 70, he’ll look good for a 100 year old…!
He looks absolutely horrible at 51 years old
How sad
Why? We all want to live longer!
He looks older than 51!
In the words of Chris Rock from the song no sex. Your gonna die.
“You’re,” not “your.” But you are totally right.
😂😂😂
There's a lifespan cap of 120 years research it
Tell the old man nice try. But he's still not beating father time. No matter how hard he tries. 😂😂😂👍
The secret to looking younger is to only drink water, get good sleep, and be black.
Nice 😊
😂
I worry about potential organ damage and failure ingesting all that counterfeit crap even if some of it is real. More often than not it contains heavy metals or other dangerous ingredients.
Monks have it figured out - live a stress free life style, eat whole foods / rice, do cardio daily and sleep 8+ hours a night.
"It's, like, a game changer..." We're all gonna die bruh. Go on down to DQ for a Grill and Chill.
these longevity DIY'ers are helping society in the longterm...and yes, their efforts will bear fruit. A.I LLM's which train on molecular biology chemistry as training data are just coming online and will greatly improve our understanding of cell rejuvenation. haters can just shut up.
End times deception at its finest.
There is nothing wrong with the general Idea. Unless aging is magic, there is no reason to assume it cannot be stopped, söowed or reversed.
The problem lies with them chugging snakeoil and worse, advertising it as a solution to others.
Oh my god am i hearing right? Societal collapse? I was surprise to that old man who is opposed to extended lifespan.. And to bio hackers try harder becaise i dont ssee any evidence in u if its effective. That guy looks eveb older
He looks older than 51 year old. 😂
Those this guy really not realize how much health problems cost society the counter is absolutely nonsensical.
Clever con man who knows how badly other humans are terrified of death and want to be immortal. I don't hate on him too much though, since most of his suckers are rich too.
whatever he’s doing is making him age faster literally
David is actually 72
51 dude looks like he’s 65
So the billionaires join you so you can manipulate and take credit. I like independent studies cause it seems genuine to me as long as they’re strict on doing things on a consistent basis showing real results. We should be light years ahead in the health industry with big companies who gets major funding. But that’s not what Big industries want. It’s a profitable business model of course but people who are sick is even bigger business.
51? Looks like 80 yrs old to me😅😅😅😅
It doesn’t matter how you look it’s how long you last in the world Preserve physical body and a sharp mind of course we gonna age is inevitable He’s doing great.
Say, “The death you are running away from will inevitably come to you. Then you will be returned to the Knower of the seen and unseen, and He will inform you of what you used to do.” (Qur'an 62:8)
Why is he wearing safety glasses?
Some science, some snake oil!
in these 2 20s sprints she get the metabolic benefits of a 45min jog.
most of these top bio hacking dudes are cringe
Yea he's planning on living until he's 100+ 😕
Spends millions of dollars....
He better Hope God Doesn't throw him a curve ball.
😂 spending all that money on tech when nature’s remedy’s are free. Wild Honey. 🍯 and Healthy eating slows inflammation as you age which keeps you looking younger. Met a 75 year old who looked to me was in his late 30s at the time and he showed me he was taking bee pollen granules and wild honey. He said he started taking it everyday in his late 30s so to slow down aging for 45 years is phenomenal but he was also a black man with no grey hair so higher melanin could play a role as well
My god we are so full of ourselves,
I'm sorry, David Asprey is 51??!?? He looks 65!! He's doing all this stuff but it looks like it's accelerating his aging. This is so unfortunate. 150 supplements a day will completely paralyze his liver in the next 3-4 years. This is sad😂
😂🤣 He swallowed all those pills 💊 & then….made himself an ESPRESSO ☕️! 👀 🤷🏽♀️I can see a cup of Folgers but WTH! Sir, just deposit 💸 your money into my account. You’re wasting it.
Espresso has less caffeine than drip coffee.
He look younger when he was young but now that he is older he looks older if you get what am saying 😮
A combination of eating healthy, exercise and genetics determine your lifespan.
Dont all those supplements dehydrate you
My dad is 68 and looks way younger than this guy😂😂 and is in way better physical shape.😂😂
Allopathic medicine is obsessed with longevity, your lifespan. Holistic health cares about VITALITY, your health span. Biohacking is narcissism, self care is you improving for the sake of those you love.
2 words de lusional
He should have started lifting 30 years ago. He'd look and feel a lot better now and could have saved himself $2 million. Ridiculous regimen to still look old anyway 😂
Until death is defeated nothing like living forever
ITS LONGTERM FASTING, A VEGAN DIET, EXERCISE. QUALITY OF LIFE AND AN MULTIVITAMINS. !😂😂😂I WANT TO DIE ONE DAY FAR IN THE FUTURE!
So that's what happens when you get rich... I think I'd rather grow plants that have medicinal value and learn how to take care of each plant. All that stuff he has and all those pills are a waste of time and money. But mostly money. Damn I wish I was a millionaire 😕 😪
Longer life isn’t the goal. Their goal is immortality and that’s scary AF when the likes of Bezos and Musk could live for hundreds of years or indefinitely.
Doesn't scare me. I'd welcome the opportunity for indefinite healthy lifespan. That's just me though.
No shade and not even trying to be rude but is there always some wealthy rich “white” person who looks like stereotypical greed mogul looking to try and extend their life as much as possible thru the use of their finances. It’s almost arrogant hence even the comment section is nuking him. Surely I can’t be the only one thinking this.
This is psychotic
Biohackers are definitely a special breed of people. I'm highly interested in the field of medical research targeting aspects of the biology of aging, but it's very disappointing to see people waste so much time and money on unproven direct-to-consumer supplements and products.
BIRTHS and REBIRTHS 😊😊😊😊
All that time and money and I thought he was in his 70s….
PRESIDENT CARTER REFUSES TO DIE IN HOSPICE CARE IS THAT LIVING.😂😂😂
That’s the oldest looking 51 year old man to me what a waste of time 😂😂😂😂
I just want to live forever so I can see future cars.
Hey! I’m 41! I have depression,anxiety, CPTSD and ptsd.I have chronic pain too.But I often get complimented to be look younger than my age.My secret is to keep going when it gets tough.Challenge yourself and listen to good music. Also, enjoy every bit of the food you’re eating! Life is too short to be worried about aging well😂
