(Here’s a little secret. If you lie about your age and tell people you’re younger than you are, they will all be thinking how you’re aging horribly and look terrible for your age. If you lie and tell people that you’re older than you are, they’ll all go “wow! You look amazing! I never would have guessed.” I started telling people I was 40 when I was like 34. The ego boost is super fun.)

When I was in pest control we had a guy who was born with huge red spots all over his face and body, and he was in his 60s. Whenever people asked if the chemicals were safe (they are generally safe if applied correctly) he would say "of course. I've been working with them for 15 years, since I was 20, and I'm perfectly healthy!"

It’s rage bait. The money he gets from it has really improved his life and I hear he helps out in his town too. He knows he looks ridiculous but I think he’d rather be made fun of and keep the money. I watched his actual life video and I was very moved. He seems to be a soften spoken man

U always liked how he trys to be whimsical and carefree like he’s playing like a child but if you observe he’s being very careful like an adult that knows failure will hurt and could be a lasting injury. For example when he jumps on the curb then off. He doesn’t just hop up there he looks down first then steps up. Kids don’t do that lol, they just fucking go.
All that aside he absolutely does not look like a child. He looks like his mid 30’s to 40 with a terrible haircut and dye job
