Here's the video that got me hooked on his channel, although it could have been any of them:

Aged cheeses. Why do they have expiration dates?

I mean, unopened plastic wrapped.

If it's an aged cheese that is unopened and looks ok, is it probably ok? What could go wrong?

Fascinating. This 32-year-old man stopped aging at 13

I think I've seen documentaries in the past about this condition--it's seemingly the opposite of progeria, where one has accelerated aging.

But this fellow apparently aged normally until adolescence, then stopped.

I do hope there are researchers who are studying this and doing full genome sequencing on such folks. Imagine the implications for longevity research!
