The Man With 1000 Kids

Quote

For many Dutch people seeking to be parents, Jonathan Meijer appeared to be heaven-sent. Tall, handsome, and blessed with a head of thick blond hair, Meijer’s profile stood out to those browsing private sperm donation sites where a prospective parent could search for potential donors. In his initial correspondences, Meijer claimed that he only intended to donate sperm to a handful of families — but in time, it became clear that he’d lied to many of them.

The Man with 1000 Kids is a three-episode docuseries that takes on the monumental task of trying to piece together the havoc wreaked by Meijer across several countries and continents — in addition to 11 sperm banks in the Netherlands and private donations, Meijer had been donating sperm all over the globe.

He must have a right arm like an arm wrestling world champion, as well as some severe friction burns.

Crysos, the Danish sperm bank, straight up lied.   First they said, he was a regular donor, then they said they limited his donations to only 25 - 50 families globally.   But if his stock online kept getting replenished (hence the regular donations), they know it was a lot more than 25-50 families.   

I honestly didn't think he was all that handsome.   He looks very hippie-ish to me with a self-centered attitude.   Oh hey I travel the world telling you how to live a better life.   Apparently funded by donating sperm.  

I also want to know what the deal with the scar on the guy was.   Accident, brain tumor.   what?   The fact he and Jonathan were working together is creepy.   Both of them have serious issues.

 

ETA:   Finished it last night (I break it up due to schedule and can only handle so much).   They did it.   Well until he starts using aliases so as not to get caught.   These mass donors all have god complexes.   My super sperm will populate the world.   Yeah, by the time  you get a few generations down, its so diluted as to be almost irrelevant.   Like everyone is related to Charlemagne.    Fun trivia fact but realistically irrelevant.  On one is handing me the Carolingian crown.
