A man has shown how he aged over 25 years through the art of photography, and people can’t believe the changes and his overall dedication to the task.
Even if someone paid you, I don’t think you could take a selfie every single day for an entire year. Chances are, some days you would simply forget, others you couldn’t be asked, and there would be loads of days where you would basically just be too busy.
Now, one man has shown that he is essentially built different.
He was able to take a photo of himself, emotionless, every day not just for one year, not 10... but a total of 25 years.

The YouTuber behind the unbelievable stunt is JK Keller, who describes himself as an artist and coder on his social media pages.
He shared the video on his page back in 2023 and said he started the project when he was 22 in 1998 and completed it when he was 47 in 2023.
I can’t imagine the patience and dedication to pull off this task and on a more existential side of things, it really makes you think about your own mortality.
You sure might feel young spry and fit as ever, but those younger years are gone forever...
But on a brighter note, the video itself is impressive and shows little snapchats of Keller’s life.
You can see him don different hairstyles, facial hair (I love the wiggly moustache portion of the video), t-shirts and hoodies.
The viral clip has recently found its way on to Reddit with many remarking they are amazed at how little the YouTuber actually appears to have aged.
“[His] hair not greying or receding either. I have a baby face and the grey hair is the only thing from keeping me getting carded at every bar,” one person commented.
"That’s what I also noticed most," another wrote. "He must be a very disciplined person, not only to take the time to do this of course, but with his diet and fitness because judging from his face, he doesn’t budge more than a pound or two in any direction."
“Me at 27 with the hairline of idk someone w a really bad hairline, watching this video and clutching my fist,” joked another
“I like how his mustache grows and then starts fluttering like it's a bird in a flipbook,” commented a fourth person, and I couldn’t agree more.
If you think you have the dedication, why not give this a go yourself.
