Tech mogul Bryan Johnson has bizarrely claimed that celebrating his birthday every 19 months is slowing down his internal clock.
The apparent anti-aging guru has said that he has now hit his “personal best” in slowing down his aging process.
In a YouTube video called ‘My $16/Day Diet to Live to 200+’ Johnson says that he is aging at a rate of 0.64.

This means that the millionaire is only aging by 7.6 months for every 12 months in the year.
Johnson reckons that this will enable him to live to a world record breaking age of 200.
So how is he managing this? The entrepreneur has revealed that his team are “building” his diet in the same way he would with his software.
In the video, Johnson said: “When you build software, you build version one, and it moves to version two and version three, every version gets a little better because you remove the bad stuff and add more good stuff.
“I’ve done the same thing with my diet.”
Johnson spends around $2 million every year on products and plans to halt his age, which he refers to as Project Blueprint.
He even has his own supplement range under the name Blueprint and it doesn’t come cheap - the full bundle will set you back by $361 - but the businessman claims that his methods are available for free.
The mogul sold his company Braintree to PayPal in 2012 for a cool $800 million and has sparked a lot of debate and interest in the last year to his unusual methods in his attempt to live forever.
Taking to the comment section under his latest video, one user posted: “You’re looking great and younger, too! Thank you for all of your videos and research.”
A second added: “Bryan Johnson out here literally saving lives.”
And a third said: “It will be so fun to watch these early videos 200 years from now.”
There seemed to be harsher critics airing their views on X though, with one user saying: “Your birthday is related to the movement of the Sun, it has nothing to do with biology and everything to do with astronomy-astrology.”
Another commenter didn’t seem interested in Johnson’s methods for achieving eternal life, adding: “I actually want to enjoy life.”
The mogul’s supposed ways of slowing down the aging process aren’t for everyone.
He has a tablespoon of extra virgin olive oil with every meal and sprinkles ground-up vegetables on top of his dishes.
The dad-of-three has been obsessed with halting the aging process for some time and once even received blood transfusions from his son in an attempt to have the youngest possible biological age.
Are his methods working? Johnson is adamant they are - so much as that he’s apparently even beaten balding and grey hair.
