Look who is making news this time and that too for a strange, miraculous, yet joyous revelation. However, for me, the news is a mixture of joy and the different influences it would have on the readers. He escaped the jaws death, all thanks to his several genetic mutations. Yes, I am talking about the 61-year-old “Black Sabbath”, Ozzy Osbourne. He is known as the ‘Prince of darkness’ and he is as famous for his excessive intake of drugs (cocaine, morphine, sleeping cough etc) and alcohol as he is for his voice. He claims to have done LSD every day for two years and he drank booze like water. There is no medical reason for him to be alive. Many of the anomalies scientists discovered had to do with how Osbourne processes drugs and alcohol. I am happy for the man.
Understand that, it is a very rare situation and he was lucky enough to have his genetic mutations however, not all individuals possess them. Therefore, swimming in a pool of booze and excessive use of drugs brings nothing but destruction. Osbourne is not endorsing anything here and neither was he performing a stunt on fear factor. It is a chapter in his actual life that he has unfolded and it has got nothing to do with whether or not one can survive the odds he survived. There is absolutely no need to try and be like him.
My only endeavour is that, Osbourne continues to be an inspiring rocker and that his secret survival as a ‘mutant’ wouldn’t be misinterpreted and taken otherwise by the readers. Long life Ozzy.
