A 69-year-old man from the Netherlands was told by a court that he could not legally lower his age by 20 years.

Emile Ratelband told The Washington Post that he feels his “feeling” about his body and mind is that he’s about 40 or 45 despite being born on March 11, 1949. He also claims he received a check-up from a doctor who told him his “biological age is 45 years.”
