Driving, he says, is statistically the most dangerous thing he does. On his four-day trip to India, which begins on Monday, Johnson's main concern is ensuring he is driven by the "very best of drivers".
The millionaire tech entrepreneur and bio hacker who is 47 years old but claims to have reversed his epigenetic age by 5.1 years with his various experiments said his eventual aim is to have the epigenetic age of an 18-year-old. Johnson sold his payment-gateway company Braintree Venmo to PayPal for $800 million in 2013, and has been working, as a famous Indian influencer is known to say, "on himself."
In addition, he has also worked on a book, 'Don't Die', and is in Mumbai and Bengaluru to promote it. Johnson, whose social media feed these days is all about staying away from Thanksgiving and Christmas treats, kicks off the Mumbai leg of the book tour with a fireside chat with Zomato's Deepinder Goyal. He is also slated to meet a host of billionaires and Bollywood stars in the city. "We will have 15 events across the two cities but I am also hoping to meet India's health minister in New Delhi," he said over an early morning call from his home in Los Angeles.
