Earlier this year a good night out for Stewart Burton started on a Saturday afternoon in his home town of Brighton and could easily carry on for 18 hours, all the way through to Sunday.
Stewart, 25, would get through up to 60 cigarettes, down nine bottles of beer, followed by several shots, and more beer. He would also dabble in drugs.
That was a good night out for Stewart - but he was starting to notice his nights out were having a detrimental impact on his body.
He wasn't as fit as he used to be and he often shunned the healthy food in his fridge for yet another take-away.
Stewart was often drinking more than a 100 units of booze a week.
The government recommends men should drink no more than 21 units a week.
......
With his relationship on a knife edge, Stewart put himself forward for Make My Body Younger's Living Autopsy.
Every inch of Stewart's body was examined and his vital organs were tested.
He even had a fertility test, but he felt confident about the outcome.
"I know I've got no problems," he said.
"I've got a daughter all ready. I know everything is working properly."
At his Living Autopsy, Stewart was laid out on the gurney and the first 'incision' was made in front of girlfriend Donella, Stewart's mum and his brothers.
It was a demanding and emotional time for all involved as presenter George Lamb and Dr Andrew Curran revealed Stewart's results.
The two most shocking moments for Stewart, Donella and his family was when Stewart's brain age was revealed.
Stewart is only 25 but all his hardcore partying resulted in a brain age of 68.

He had the brain of a 68 year old? How many 68 year olds do you know that think it's a good idea to go on an 18 hour bender every weekend? ;-)
Fair play to him though. Thanks to this shock, he does seem to be doing something about it. Mind you, I do find it difficult to have sympathy for anyone who is prepared to share a TV studio with George %&$�*"ing Lamb (without being armed with a baseball bat, at least).
