‘Biohacker’ Bryan Johnson ripped for posting son’s erection data online

There are some parents who ask for the child’s consent to post a photo of them on social media.

Then there are parents like Bryan Johnson, who shared his teenage son’s nighttime erection data online.

The tech mogul obsessed with living an anti-aging lifestyle has been criticized for exposing details tracking 19-year-old Talmage’s erections.

Johnson posted on X a split-screen of data from an overnight erection-tracking machine for himself and the teen including “number of erection episodes,” “total duration of erection episodes,” “average erection quality” and “sleep efficiency.”

The vampiric-looking 47-year-old captioned the information, “Nighttime erection data from my 19-year-old son, @talmagejohnson and me. His duration is two minutes longer than mine.”

He added: “Raise children to stand tall, be firm, and be upright.”

Commenters were shocked by the oversharing, which ironically followed Johnson’s previous post that read, “In 2030, 2025 Bryan Johnson will be a normal dude doing normal things.”

One person wrote, “You didn’t need to share this with everyone,” alongside a meme that read, “Finally, pure cringe.”

Another user ranted, “This is why we must take away rich people’s money. They use it to do s— like measuring their child’s erection and publicly post it on the internet. It’s vile.”

A third commented what many other people were wondering: “I don’t even want to know how you measure this.”

Johnson revealed in 2023 that part of his multi-million regime includes wearing a small device resembling an AirPods case on his penis to monitor his nighttime erections.

“I have, on average, two hours and 12 minutes each night of erection of a certain quality,” he told Time magazine at the time. “To be age 18, it would be three hours and 30 minutes.”

His erections post is not the first time Johnson has involved his son in his biohacking endeavours.

In 2023, he included his son and father in a “blood-swapping” family affair, where a litre each of all three men’s blood was separated into plasma, red blood cells, white blood cells and platelets before Bryan received Talmage’s batch, Bryan’s dad Richard got his son’s while the teen got nothing.

The process was all in an effort for the older men to look and feel younger.

In a Friday post on X, Johnson gave tips on “how to be a good dad,” which included prioritizing sleep, eating nutritious food and building strong character.

He also added: “provides healthy plasma” and “has robust nighttime erections.”
