S02:E01 - He Hasn’t Slept Since 1962 (Doctors Don’t Know Why)

Mr. Ngoc says he hasn’t slept since 1962. I traveled from Arizona to a small village in South Vietnam to stay up with him and see if it’s true.

After 7 years, I finally met Whang-Od, the 107-year-old legendary tattoo artist of the Philippines and former Vogue cover star.

I flew to Uganda to meet Mama Uganda, the world’s most fertile woman, to see how she raises 44 children in a small village.

I met Afshin Esmaeil Ghaderzadeh, the world’s shortest man, in his hometown of Bukan, Iran. One of the coolest experiences of my life.

Meet Jyoti Amge - She's 29 years old, 24 inches tall, and weighs less than 11 pounds (5kg).

In Tondo, I met Evelyn, who cooks "PAGPAG" from fast food scraps. Her home business earns more than office jobs and sent her kids to college.

Join me as I take you on a journey to OKINAWA, JAPAN, a place where people live longer and healthier than anywhere else on Earth.

Welcome to Dhaka, home to the world’s wildest traffic. I ride every transport to see how locals survive the chaos.

In Hong Kong, I document life inside “coffin homes,” where families survive in spaces smaller than any bedroom you’ve ever seen.

I traveled to rural Ethiopia to meet Muluwork, a woman who claims she hasn’t eaten, drunk, or used the bathroom in 16 years.
