Wealthy Tech Mogul’s Desperation to Remain Young Has Him Using His Son as a ‘Blood Boy’

In an effort to delay or possibly even reverse decrepitude, 45-year-old tech mogul Bryan Johnson has tapped his son’s veins.

Johnson sold his digital payments company Braintree to PayPal for $800 million in 2013, then started the brain-machine interface company Kernel.

The technologist’s millions reportedly did not bring him peace. Instead, he was left depressed, bordering on suicidal, haunted by the inevitability that the march of progress would one day leave him behind.

TheBlaze reported earlier this year that Johnson had assembled a team of 30 doctors and was poised to spend $2 million a year on his body, admitting, “What I do may sound extreme, but I’m trying to prove that self-harm and decay are not inevitable.”

According to Bloomberg, the technologist hopes to have “the brain, heart, lungs, liver, kidneys, tendons, teeth, skin, hair, bladder, penis and rectum of an 18-year-old” via the execution of his Project Blueprint, “an algorithm that takes better care of me than I can myself.” (Read more from “Wealthy Tech Mogul’s Desperation to Remain Young Has Him Using His Son as a ‘Blood Boy’” HERE)
