And that man? Luigi
A nerd who injected himself with testosterone to ace the "test"
I was thinking Nick Offerman.
Obviously Conan O'Brien
I guess I'll just assume what the x axis is....
Grigori Perelman
That's just John Testosterone, we don't talk about him.
Professor John Testosterone.
For your sins of axis-cropping, you shall be redeemed by reciting the periodic table thrice.
we need a community / magazine for badly cropped axises in the lemmyverse! (if there is not one already)
The only redemption is re-posting the full, properly cropped picture!
styropyro
He has some mystery condition where his testosterone is super high... He's very smart, but maybe not quite there.
Tbh if you told me there's a STEM youtuber with worryingly high levels of testosterone, Styropyro would be my first guess
That's literally who I thought about and I'm so glad someone mentioned it. He's a freakishly smart dude.
How is he now btw? Is he getting treated? Did they find a root cause?
He's posted very little on it. Last we heard they didn't find any cancers or anything and he wasn't really suffering from it. He had some strange symptoms and it it just came up in tests that didn't like up with what he was there for. But it was really really high.

That is Testosterone Georg, who is an outlier and should not be counted
That's styropyro:
Poor thing can’t fully close his mouth.
He's one of the smartest youtubers I routinely watch. And yeah, crazy high testosterone, although you might never guess. I generally would assume someone with that much testosterone would have some facial hair.
That's not how testosterone works. It's not fuel, it's just a signal. Everyone's neutral baseline is calibrated differently depending on developmental events mainly in the womb. It's not about how much absolute testosterone you have in a snapshot, it's about how much higher or lower you are than your own personal baseline. Your body will tend to maintain near your baseline, which might be much higher or lower than someone else's baseline, while "meaning" the same thing.
im guessing he also has some degree of androgen insensitivity. having crazy high testosterone youd expect large muscles, lots of facial hair, male pattern baldness, a low voice, but hes not that big, has at least thin facial hair that he shaves, a full head of hair, and a relatively high voice. idk if any version of androgen insensitivity is associated with very high testosterone levels but i wouldn't be surprised.
Type 2 testobetes

might be styropyro who has mentioned a clinical testosterone disorder affecting videos recently
I bet on Dulph Lundgren
Luigi Mangione ?
Don't you mean the killer the feds mistook Luigi for?
I didn't say he killed anyone, he just looks good and is smart
