His 2023 book, Outlive, has sold more than three million copies, recommended by everyone from Bill Ackman to Hugh Jackman. He’s treated Chris Hemsworth on television via cold plunging and a four-day fast, before going spearfishing for a meal off the Great Barrier Reef, to “unlock his body’s own anti-aging powers.” He was profiled on 60 Minutes before CBS News head Bari Weiss recently named him a contributor to the network.
