The scientist injected himself with a specific bacteria that happens to be 3.5 million years old. Brouchkov, who specialises in the field of permafrost, spoke with VICE a few years ago about his ventures, and why indeed he chose such a peculiar avenue to try and extend his lifespan.
According to Brouchkov, his decision to inject such an old bacteria into his system was based on the idea that he would then gain the bacteria’s resistance abilities. Known as Bacillus F, the scientist pulled the sample from the Mammoth Mountain in the northern Siberian region of Yakutsk in 2009.
The bacteria is believed to have been preserved under the ice for millennia, making it naturally the perfect ingredient for everlasting life, or that’s at least how Brouchkov sees things.
The question is, how does he feel now he’s injected it? Well, for those non-believers out there, the scientist claims to feel far less tired and more energised following the experiment. Moreover, Brouchkov has also claimed that he hasn’t had the flu in over two years. While there’s no way to verify this, it’s definitely an intriguing prospect.
The search for eternal life is no new concept, it’s a path a number of people have gone down many times before, including the world’s third-wealthiest person, Jeff Bezos. That being said, injecting yourself with a practically prehistoric bacteria is definitely doing the most. It’s slightly more committed than simply drinking green juice every day.
This man might be onto a groundbreaking discovery. While living forever is a stretch, with that ancient bacteria in his system, he could potentially develop immunity to a variety of formidable diseases. It makes one curious – could he even be resistant to COVID?
