Read this before watching!

We filmed this scene from my new video yesterday, and I'm so absolutely psyched with how it came out that I didn't want to wait another month to show y'all. Here's an early cut - music and fine-tuned editing will come later.

It is, however, a HUGE spoiler from start to finish. It comes several chapters into the video, and pays off everything that I spend the previous hour building up to; without that setup, it might be confusing. If you, dear patron, choose to journey on anyway, here are the basics you need to know:

1. The focus of this video is Bryan Johnson, a tech millionaire who claims "he's handed over his life to an algorithm" that dictates exactly what he should eat, when he should sleep, and so on.

2. He does all this, alongside hundreds of experimental or pseudoscientific health procedures, in hopes that "the algorithm" will help him become a perfectly productive businessman, and – here's the big one – prevent him from ever dying.

It's a spicy meatball.

Enjoy :)

The stained glass scene

This video is probably going to get very big! Was the stained glass a reference to religious/church imagery? Also have you considered adding music to this clip?

Ooo this looks so cool and I'm psyched as hell for it! I think I shall observe the spoiler warning and wait for the full video but hell yes and good work

I don't understand how it works so well that your face isn't overpowered by the colors and texture. Great job on setting up the shot!

Thank you, I did not know that about Mormonism. Buddha was an ordinary human being. PayPal co-founder and gay conservative billionaire Peter Thiel is also rumoured to have dabbled in life-extension technology, but I do not know if these activities are related to his religious beliefs. Thiel also obtained New Zealand citizenship by staying here for 12 days and being super rich. A true patriot. He was just denied planning approval to build a luxury lodge near Wānaka but supposedly has a doomsday bunker in the vicinity. I am sure plenty here will be happy to organise a concrete mixer to seal him in should the need arise.

Is that a molecule tattoo on Johnson's right wrist?

Thank you for the spoiler warning! I would prefer to see the completed work first but I will return to this after to see how things have changed in the process :) congratulations on your engagement as well!
