Bryan Johnson has claimed he created a 'newborn' version of himself in a petri dish, saying the experiment could one day help him grow replacement organs after his autoimmune gastritis diagnosis. While scientists say such technology is still years away from routine medical use, Johnson believes it could eventually allow him to rebuild his body using his own cells.
The 48-year-old biohacker posted the startling claim on X on July 22, telling followers: 'I just cloned myself...as a newborn.' Johnson, who has built a global following through his extreme anti-ageing project Blueprint, also said the so-called 'baby-Bryan' currently exists in a petri dish.
