42. It was pretty obvious from the video of his conversation with the reporter
Thu Jan 1, 2026, 11:47 PM
Jan 1

that he had no idea what he had had. Some kind of imaging, yes (a word he probably doesn't know). Bur the reporter said, "Did you have an MRI?" and he jumped on it like a life preserver thrown to a drowning man.

Max Kuhn's YouTube channel does a pretty good job of presenting what's possible and what isn't regarding his health and what he is (and isn't) displaying. He works with Dr. Davin Benjamin There was a photo recently which had been shopped to make it look like his eyes weren't focused in the same direction and they were right on it (not, IMO, that it was hard to tell it was shopped - the makeup under his lower eyelids was missing - but they went to the trouble of locating the original it was shopped from.)
