Why I injected myself with an untested gene therapy?

A guy named Tristan Roberts injected himself an untested, experimental gene therapy, and it was livestreamed on Facebook.

Six years ago he was dignosed as HIV positive. After 4 years he chose to stop taking coventional antiretroviral drugs, and injected himself instead with the tiny amount of liquid contained trillions of plasmids, hoop-shaped pieces of DNA. This DNA should trigger production of the antibody N6.

A US National Institutes of Health (NIH) showed N6 neutralised 98% of the HIV virus in lap conditions. The antibody came from a single person, whose body somehow manages the virus on their own. But scientists don't know exactly how. By the injecting N6, He wished to cure a HIV without side-effects (so called Moonshot)

This idea looks amazing, but not everyone agrees on it, especially FDA(the US Food and Drug Administration). They can crack down on unlicensed human testing.
