He’s not “huge” but as a musician he is bigger in DACH than anywhere else.
Now I guess he's just a washed out actor, I didn't even realize he's still touring
My working theory is that there’s some kind of reverse self-fulfilling prophecy at play here: It’s been imposed on Germans that “we love Hasselhoff” over and over again and at some point we just went with it, albeit it’s mostly and irony thing now.
Then again, I might be totally off and not realize that I’m looking at it from within a bubble of people not actually liking him.
If the light doesn’t do anything, you might lack some basic building blocks for whatever photobiomodulation does (stimulating cytochrome-C-oxidase seems to be only one of the effects), like copper or other trace minerals (selenium, iodine, zinc), or B vitamins. Hard to say really, energy production in the body seems to be really complex from what I‘ve read. If you have lots of money to spend on health, you could get a hair tissue mineral analysis and an organic acids test, and see what‘s lacking. Former will probably be $100, latter could be 300-500.
Consistering there is a large statue of Rowan Atkinson / Mr Bean in Yuexiu Park, the largest park in Guangzhou China. Mr Bean is very well known.
Mr Bean is more famous than Monty Python.
