21 Savage wants to be frozen so he can be alive in 2121

21 Savage wants to be frozen so he can be alive in 2121
Jan 3 2023 Share

While some have opted for the standard “get back to the gym” or “start eating healthy” as their New Year’s resolutions, Atlanta-based rapper 21 Savage has his eyes set on a much grander plan.

Hours before ringing in the new year, the London-born Grammy Award-winner took to Twitter to share that he wants to be frozen so he can live to see the year 2121. The 98-year-freezing would allow the Her Loss rapper to live in the year which he coincidentally ad-libs in each and every one of his songs.

Whilst 21 Savage may be joking, cryopreservation is something which modern-day scientists have been looking into for a while, particularly the freezing of human bodies and organs for research.

That being said, if 21 actually made it 2121, he would be 129 years old, 7 years older than the oldest person who ever lived.

For around 50 years after his death, it was also widely rumoured that animation giant Walt Disney was frozen, with various videos & theories debunking the rumour down the line.

First off were Prime Minister Robert Abela and Opposition leader Bernard Grech as Avengers Iron Man and Captain America respectively.

This was followed by statues of late former Prime Ministers Duminku Mintoff and Karmenu Mifsud Bonnici in stills reminiscent of the Lincoln Memorial.

Next up was followed up by portraits of former Prime Ministers Eddie Fenech Adami and George Borg Olivier. AI has already taken the world by storm, with the AI Avatar trend literally filling up Instagram feeds as everyone wanted to see what they themselves looked like through an AI lens.

What do you make of these?
