#dwdocumentary #dwdocs #documentary
A global longevity movement promises to decelerate the ageing process. Or even avoid it, altogether. But just how realistic are the claims of biohacking and self-optimization? And who can afford it anyway?

YouTuber Anastasia wants to stay young forever, and a researcher in the USA promises that people can live up to 500 years. Bryan Johnson is following the radical ‘Don’t Die’ program to become immortal. The tech billionaire lives by strict rules, eats the same thing every day and avoids all forms of risk. At his home in Los Angeles, the most famous follower of the longevity scene shows how he wants to overcome death. But is this plan at all realistic?
