Sounds more like a disorder than a "hack"
Yeah, I have to be careful around the sun but that's pushing it. If he's that worried about UV inside he can add blocking films to windows.
You shouldn't be that "worried" about the sun. It's borderline obsessive.
Daily sunscreen is more than enough.
You need sunlight to process vitamins and keep your vitamin D up
You need sunlight to regulate your circadian rhythm.
If you hide from the sun 24x7 you need to supplement those deficiencies with other sources, and it's highly likely you won't be successful in doing that.

Here in the UK we don't get enough sun for 6 months of the year to keep our Vitamin D levels up, so you have to supplement anyway. I doubt I get enough naturally at any time so take a high strength supplement and that does the trick.
I get much the same reaction from people. I look like I'm only 55 even though I'm actually 56. I put this down to my diet of pop tarts and gin.
Dude looks creepy as hell. Also regardless how he looks hes still aging. He just die looking like a kid. Also are we sure were not being trolled?
Because this 35 year old man sounds like a teenager. Wasn't aware not aging due to staying out of sunlight effects the voice too.
He also removed his testes.
Yeah, I'm also wondering if something like that is going on. Certainly some hormonal intervention I think.
Yeah definitely doing more than staying away from the sun.
Really? That fuck up.
he also uses what he describes as a “sunbrella” to protect his skin.
The word is "parasol" you fucking plonker
Or just umbrella, the root word umbra meaning shadow.
No, no. The brella protects you from the Um, my dude. A sunbrella from the sun (duh). Do you people not have rainbrellas in your houses?! 🙄
Well there is more to this than avoiding the sun. He also looks like he hasn't been though puberty which has nothing to do with the sun.
My thoughts too, I'm not seeing much of an Adam's apple. I doubt you look like that just from avoiding the sun.
Of course not.
That's from drinking the blood of youthful virgins.
As a pasty ginger who never tans, just crisps, under a full moon, I always joke about my "vampire-grade sun protection" (riffing off the scene in Blade where the vampires are in high SPF sun cream and motorbike gear for the dawn.
I always use SPF 50 when outside on sunny days and a lower SPF cream for general use and then wear high UPF clothing (a bit like the top he's wearing in one photo).
At a recent funeral, folks I hadn't seen in decades commented how I didn't look like I'd aged much and I didn't want to point out how sun damaged some of the people saying it were.
Also sleeping in a coffin and drinking blood helps.
Mr Johnson is similarly seeking to improve his health and said his ultimate goal is to not die.
This seems like an extreme anxiety and/or OCD. Especially if he’s not getting to live a regular life because he’s scared of the sun. Just seems unhealthy and concerning.
But I guess, if he’s happy and doesn’t need to leave for employment or friends, whatever.
Avoiding life to not die. Poetic.
"lives"
My nephew is 13 and looks older than the sun-shunner. It must be partly genetics or this is a 12-year-old pulling some elaborate gag
He looks uncanny. I have the primal urge to smack him dead with a heavy branch
He just uses every trick under the sun to look like that. Starting by being underweight, strategical placing the hair, wearing child clothes, using filters and makeup, hormon blockers etc. All to look like a person with major disorders. Congratulations for the YouTube money.

Does bring an anti-Sun influencer pay well? Is he in the pocket of Big Vitamin D?
I wear 3 different spf products, including on my lips, and always the max, even when it's cloudy and I'm inside. Even when I am utterly depressed.
And then you have people who go tanning after putting on OLIVE OIL.

That kind of thing makes me wonder what people are thinking, unless they are friends with cannibals (which is like friends with benefits but tastier).
Now you got me wondering which of my friends is tastiest.
Regarding olive oil, well I'm pretty sure it's a good way to take care of your skin. People have put it on since ancient times. But I just can't imagine it has any significant spf. What I can imagine is that people just don't get it, cuz I run into people who don't even know what uv radiation is.
There are idiots everywhere.
Now you got me wondering which of my friends is tastiest.
I think we all taste like pork and depends on the marinade.
It's been long agreed on amongst my friend's that, in an Alive situation, I'd be the first one on the BBQ.
I remember my sisters using baby oil in the 70s to get a deeper burn which meant a darker tan.
Did she finally become popular like me?
How to make vitamin D producers love you.
i don't really go outside much, i look a little younger than i am (altho i usually credit this with being trans) but
i would go INSANE if i looked like a teenager in my mid thirties!!! 😭
Yeah, I get looking a bit younger. Like after I started transitioning I went from being 25 and looking 35 to being and looking 25, which is honestly pretty cool.
But that much? Hell no
