This guy sells "immortality rings", and the mechanism by which they work is:

"The Immortality Rings have amplified your body's Chi flow from 100% to 1000%. Now there is lots of Chi energy available for healing. Your cells start to absorb medication and nutrients like crazy the moment you lie down. Your body heals itself faster than it can age."

What really funny is when he tries to give a scientific explanation and his lack of knowledge completely shows:

http://alexchiu.com/eternallife/bacteria.htm

what a "genius" inventor he is right lol

LOL i also love his "patent": US PATENT # 5,989,178. Who would ever steal his design? lol

A swedish show "filip & fredrik" duo visited that guy a while back. He really believes in the product so its not really a scam I guess, anyway the topic kind of slipped away from the immortality stuff towards the fact that he was very big on purchasing prostitutes. Weird guy.

edit: he also thought he had gone from being a 5/10 to a perfect 10/10 looking guy thanks to the device.

Par for the course. I'm not sure who I pity more: this guy or the people who fall for his scam.

How is this any different than any other supernatural/ magical dribble we hear about on a daily basis?

I think it's all ridiculous and terrible that he's preying on other ignorant people, but for those who are stupid enough to fall into his trap...

It's like Peter Popoff or any similar act all over again. Terrible people exploiting the irrational.

I don't think he's genuinely trying to exploit anyone though. He seemed very childish, possibly retarded, and he's pretty much dedicated his life to these nonsense methods he sincerely believes to be a great invention. He's a sad individual but not so much a scammer.

my eyes burned when I saw the website. Terrible, Terrible damage...

I don't believe in immortality rings, if they were real, the government would've taken them and made it a secret long time ago.

I guess he will be very disappointed when he's laying on his deathbed.

This guy is just helping out humanity by weeding out the idiots. I'm sure all the rings have tracking transmitters so that if/when the alien overlords arrive, we'll be able to offer them as sacrifices.

Patents take about 10 years to become official and requires alot of organization and resources.

typically only companies with products that could potentially make alot of money and university professors get patents for their products and designs

his patent is total bs lol

You obviously haven't heard of homeopathy, spiritual surgery, psychics or any other type of charlatan: this guy could make a lot of money. What's holding him back is his site design, not the actual underlying idea.

This has to be joke. There was a website a while back that was supposed to be a site where parents can marry off their 13 year old daughters to strangers with a lot of money. They justified it with some christian bullshit and had much of testimonials. People got really pissed at it, but then they realized its all bullshit and they got trolled. I'm assuming this website is along that line.
