Travis Barker of Blink-182 bought a can containing Ozzy Osbourne's DNA, sold by the brand Liquid Death . Titled Infinite Ozzy , the empty cans of Liquid Death Iced Tea Ozzy drank, contain his DNA.
The drummer showed off his purchase on his Instagram Stories, tagging Ozzy and Liquid Death, without giving further details about the purchase.
In a limited edition, each of these cans comes in a lab-quality container, hand-signed by Ozzy. They are sold for US$450 each (approximately R$2473.42 at the current exchange rate) through the Liquid Death .
Ozzy drank 10 cans of iced tea, and the company sealed each can to preserve his DNA. Furthermore, as soon as technology and federal law allow, Travis Barker could use this DNA to attempt to clone the Madman in the future. In a statement, Ozzy simply told fans: “Clone me, you bastards.”
What is the Liquid Death brand acquired by Travis Barker?
A year ago, Ozzy joined forces with Liquid Death for a video campaign warning children not to sniff the beverage brand's Death Dust. At the time, Osbourne said in a statement [via Blabbermouth ]: “I love how Liquid Death makes something healthy like hydration more fun.
Sharon, the family and I drink Liquid Death all the time. It’s delicious. But seriously, don’t sniff or inject anything they make. It’s much better to drink.”
Liquid Death is a mineral water brand that has been gaining prominence for its can packaging, which resembles a beer can. In addition, its marketing strategy is irreverent, aiming to attract a young audience. It also uses low-calorie beverages such as sparkling water with a soda flavor, iced tea, and much more.
The brand calls itself "diabolically environmentally conscious" and seeks to combat plastic waste by using aluminum cans instead of plastic bottles.
