Synopsis:
If you thought Human Immortality was just a concept in science fiction, this episode reveals how it will become science fact. For some scientists featured in this program, achieving Immortality is not a question of ‘If’. The real question is ‘When?’.

One scientist shows how she is making lab-grown organs called ‘ghost hearts’ that not only grow quickly, but that can be accepted in any host’s body without rejection—ending the agony for those waiting for organ transplants. Another biologist is looking at Immortality at the microbiological level. In his lab, he’s identified the ‘longevity gene’ (called SIR2) that can slow the ageing process, and which holds the key that will unlock our ability to better control the rate at which we age. One gerontologist is unearthing the immortal secrets of lobsters, who never stop growing and naturally live up to the astonishing age of 122 years. Inspired by how their bodies regulate cellular division, he’s developing cutting-edge medications that will boost human longevity.

Incredibly, one pioneer is creating a unique medical cocktail that can even reverse ageing. Medical techniques like these could pave the way to Human Immortality.

    As an optimistic immortality supporter and anti-death person, I'm both fascinated and excited about these breakthroughs and I hope that immortality can be for everybody, especially our family, pets, and friends sooner or later in our lifetimes. It's always great being alive
  • I was told that I'm going to beat my follicular lymphoma, with my last round of cancer treatments in May. I've always been fascinated with the concept of immortality, both biologically and genetically, and even artificially! It makes me happy with how much work and progress has been put in and made on this front!
  • @RSEFX
    The real truth about aging isn't so much about gaining wrinkles and declines in health, as significant as those things are, but the loss of friends and relatives, the changing of all things, the disappearance of familiar and loved places as you get older. All the familiar frames of reference and much of what you learned, your skills and things that entertained you, charmed you all either change, become amusingly "quaint" and forgettable by new generations or simply disappear altogether, obscured by the ever-evolving complexities of "all that is new" and unfamiliar.
  • @HydroK9..
    I'm only turning 15 but i really wanna be immortal or at least like live up to 200 years. I wanna see all the things and new technology in the future and I dont wanna miss out on anything. This 75 years life span is too short. You retire at 60 but start working at like 28. 32 years will not be enough for me TvT. One day I could draw my last painting, watch the last youtube video, pet a dog one last time and research one last time. Everyone around me is so optimistic and my family always say they're not afraid of death as it is inevitable. I just can't be this optimistic and I just hope that I dont die before this could become real :'D
  • I really thought she was 38 and when she said i am 26 I just said Wow. Stress can make people age faster for sure
  • @emandm1822
    A video about human immortality - 450K views... MrBeast gets 100 stray dogs adopted - 75 million views.. do we really deserve immortality..?
  • @HKstyleD
    Imagine a world where instead of saving up to retire at 65, you save up to start a business or pursue a dream that you have. And then you work towards that for the next 50 years 😮
  • @pwdr
    We're still 4 generations alive. Great Grandma is from 1925 and still alive and kicking!
  • @Geomama3
    All of my grandpas siblings (7) have lived late 90’s or past 100s, during a surgery the drs where stunned about my grandpas organs, they said they weren’t in the correct places lol we called him a mutant and that probably why they live long, excited to see if we inherited the long life gene and yes my grandpa was active, at 80 he would go running and ride a bike, he could run a whole mile without stopping! I couldn’t keep up lol he sadly didn’t make it to his 90th (just shy 2 months)due to a fatal fall , but I’m sure he would have made it to 100. His last two siblings are 98, 101😮

    For those wondering about the "9-month" trial discussed with Dr. Steve Horvath around 38:34 the cocktail used was rhGH, DHEA, and Metformin. However, dosages were modified regularly on an individual basis, so there is no one-size-fits-all dosage for the age reversal.
  • Well, thankfully better days ahead where people will break the chain of diseases and sickness.Great researchers. Tombs up to you and great work.
  • @mrmikecebu
    WE HAVE NO OBLIGATION TO AGE. IT IS BECOMING A CHOICE.
  • Science is the only tool that can help humanity in all aspects of life
  • @bikeyoshiro
    Healthy Life Years has mattered a lot in the last decade. It means that after retirement how many healthy year you would be able to extend your healthy life years. Individual health literacy is absolutely necessary: how ageing is being slowed down and how living alone could be achievable as long as you are physically active enough to take care for yourself.
  • Im so worried about my brother but watching this gives me hope that out Drs have come a long way and are so close to self organ transplants made from scratch .it seems so science fication and why i love science. Always have always will. Godspeed to all if our brilliant minds. We need and appreciate you. Thank you xoxoxo
  • @Schjoenz
    There is one thing clear to me: I want to live LONGER but not forever. Immortality is not on my list. But I want my memory/consciousness to be kept in digital format where my family and every next generation will be able to meet me on screen.
  • @davidahunt4699
    My thought on immortality is that I would love to live forever. Not just live forever but be able to change myself to be what I wish to be: taller, shorter, darker, lighter, green eyes, blue eyes, etc. Today this can only be done through major surgeries or not at all. I do think that extensive rules and regulations should be in place especially to protect the rest of us from the extremely wealthy. One day they may crack the secret to immortality but the first people in line will be the uber wealthy and powerful who will want to gain more wealth and power. It's not hard to imagine a future where a small group of people live forever and have all the wealth and power while the 99.9% of us age and die like today. I also think it will be more necessary to extend our life spans, at the very least. As we become more advanced as a species we will continue to have fewer and fewer children. We will have to radically think how we continue on as a species. I would love to see cybernetics, along with other advances used to evolve humanity to a place we have never been. We will colonize the universe, live infinite lifespans, cure all existing and future illnesses, the possibilities are endless.
  • I would love to be able to live longer so I could be there for my daughter as she grows older. And then get to see her have kids would be awesome to see them grow up also 🤞 I just hope the rich don't keep it all for themselves and they make it available for everyone
  • Aging is a curable disease when you have a positive attitude towards out side world as well as inner.
