I don't hate him any more than I do any other generic tech demon, but I uniquely hope he dies in the most anticlimatic way before age 50. Like he chokes on an orange or slips on some ice. All of this needs to be for nothing.
I think it would be more poetic if it was cancer or a heart attack or something.
That'd still be poetic, but we already know he's just doing Icarus shit. My core expectation is he's going to live until like 70-100 and then die of some health event. If he dies at 50 of a heart attack, that's just what you start to expect from anyone around that age. If it's some cosmically stupid Looney Toons death, that's what really subverts my expectation and makes it as poetic as being shot under a banner that says "PROVE ME WRONG" while mid-sentence downplaying gun violence. He'd be pure absurdist comedy if he fell into an open manhole or got an infected cat bite.
Comically stupid Looney Toons death would be funny, but have you considered how funny it would be if doctors learned ten years from now that injecting yourself with the blood of the young causes some kind of horrible blood disease and he dies from that?
Well at least he would have given his life to further our scientific understanding of how to live longer (i.e. if you want to live longer, whatever you do, don't fucking do that)
It probably leads to a much faster build up of heavy metals in the bloodstream, and there's a whole host of issues that comes with that.
he's rich he could be chelating it before doping with it
