‘biohacker’ who peddled quackery dies in Pattaya

Recommended Posts

From Coconuts Bangkok

An American YouTuber was found last night inside a home in the coastal city of Pattaya, police said. 

Laith Abdullah Algaz, 34, who made videos peddling quack science remedies for men to grow taller and have amazing erections on his Leo and Longevity channel was found at a residence in the Pattaya Lagoon Village, according to Capt. Sombat Kaewmoolmook of the Pattaya Police Station. 

Algaz had not been seen for several hours when a friend used a spare key to enter the room and found Algaz lying in the bathroom. It’s believed he had been dead roughly five hours when police found him. 

Police also found in the room medications including cannabis, antidepressants, bipolar disorder medication, sleeping pills, and what they described as “muscle-boosting antibiotics.”

Algaz’s YouTube channel had more than 123,000 subscribers. In his more popular videos, he talked about penis enlargement, psychedelic consumption, steroid injection, and bodybuilding. “Biohacking” means experimenting with drugs and medications to achieve things that aren’t possible – such as growing taller as an adult – in the belief that medical science “plays it too safe.”
