Billionaire Biohacker Trips on Magic Mushrooms in Quest for Eternal Youth

On November 11, 2025, billionaire biohacker Bryan Johnson, 48, took a bold step in his quest for eternal youth. The tech tycoon, who has spent £1.6 million per year on his extreme anti-aging regime, decided to experiment with magic mushrooms to test their effects on longevity.

Johnson, who was featured in the Netflix documentary "Don't Die," mixed 5 grams of the psychedelic drug with orange juice and documented the experience live on social media. His co-founder, Kate Tolo, took over his phone during the "hero dose" trip, reporting that Johnson experienced visual hallucinations, a warped sense of time, and a deep connection to the universe and those around him.

After the experience, Johnson tweeted that he was "just so happy to be alive," adding that the trip had "changed" him, though not in the way people might expect. Despite his previous fears of death, Johnson says he has reconciled with mortality and is now focused on exploring the potential benefits of psychedelics for longevity.

The biohacker's extreme anti-aging regime has previously included injecting himself with his teenage son's blood and working from an oxygen chamber. As he continues to push the boundaries of human enhancement, Johnson's latest psychedelic experiment has once again captured the public's attention, raising questions about the lengths some will go to in the pursuit of eternal youth.
