Meet The Craziest Man of the Year

Now its hard to tell because this guy is so clean-cut and stereotypically scientist looking, but dont let his normal appearance fool you, he's actually quite insane. His name is Aubrey De Grey and he recently issued a statement saying that within the next few years humans will be able to extend their lives outwards of 1000 years.

"It is not just an idea: it's a very detailed plan to repair all the types of molecular and cellular damage that happen to us over time. And each method to do this is either already working in a preliminary form (in clinical trials) or is based on technologies that already exist and just need to be combined. "
Wow, so we're only 20 years away from being able to live forever? sounds like a pretty sweet deal. that is of course, assuming this guy wasn't doing acid when he made his claim. i think we're in the clear, though, because nothing says "i dont do acid" like that beard. . .
