This is a prize where we say, okay, the first person to do this, it was modeled after the prize that Lindbergh won flying from New York to Paris. It was a $25,000 prize offered for the first person to fly. Nine teams made the effort. Lindbergh won. Wow. I did not know that. And so we've launched 30 prizes, mapping the ocean floor, pulling water out of the atmosphere.

Let's see, five years ago, I got Elon to fund $100 million carbon extraction prize, which will be awarded this coming April for pulling CO2 out of the atmosphere and out of the oceans at mass. It's an amazing prize. Wow. I'd love to know what the hell that technology works. Yeah. Well, you'll find out. Okay.

In January of 2020, Elon became the most wealthiest person on the planet, and he was getting a lot of crap for not being philanthropic. So I texted him. I said, why don't you fund an XPRIZE? He says, what do you have in mind? I said, how about one around carbon? He said, how much? I said, 100 million. He said, he wrote back, sure.

i love you and then a month a month later we were assigned and he put up the money so that's great so for the last five years i was like there's got to be a prize and uh uh in the longevity space and um We ended up designing a prize, you know, folks like George Church and David Sinclair, Ray Kurzweil. I'm blanking on his name. Aubrey de Grey, who really was the first person to prompt me on this.

And we designed this prize and I raised $141 million. And this is a prize that was launched a year ago. And to win this, you need to demonstrate a therapeutic they could deliver in one year. So imagine someone comes to you, I'm going to give you, Gary, for a year, we're going to give you this therapy. And the impact is going to be that your cognitive, immune, and muscle will be 20 years younger.

Wow. Right? So we're not looking at your epigenetic age or anything like that. What we're looking at is how do you feel? Do you have the ability to build muscle, maintain muscle as strong and capable as you did 20 years earlier? Do you have the cognitive span of memory? Do you have the immune function to mount a reaction to a... And how are you measuring that? Just immune markers?

No, we'll do an immune challenge. We'll give you a vaccine and how well do you mount a response to that? And it's functional. It's using functional endpoints instead of just markers. And so I'm really excited about it because I think that's what really matters. Yeah, I think so too. Do you feel younger? Are you functioning in a younger state versus, oh, look at my printout.
