As Father’s Day approaches, no one is luckier than Ari Nagel, a 48-year-old American from Brooklyn, who has fathered 165 children so far. But Nagel plans to retire from spreading his seed.
“I’ll stop when I’m 50. Physically I can keep going, but there may be increased risks for things like autism with older males,” Nagel, aka the Sperminator, was quoted as saying by the New York Post.
Nagel is currently in the Bahamas where he is vacationing with his first son, 20-year-old Tyler, and child No. 33, his 7-year-old daughter Topaz.
His latest child was birthed by a woman in Connecticut earlier this week. Babies to whom he is the father are also due to be born in the US, Canada, Asia, Africa and Europe.
“It was that mom’s fourth child with me. I have 10 women currently pregnant in the US, Canada, Asia, Africa and Europe. Zimbabwe and Long Island are due in July, Israel and Queens are due in August,” Nagel boasted while speaking to the newspaper.
Nagel, a serial sperm donor, still hands over sperm samples to one or two aspiring mothers per week. He does it at times through clinics and at times face-to-face, but through non-sexual meetings.
“Having lots of kids can bring a lot of happiness and joy into your life, [but] I don’t suggest 175,” he said, adding that will “try to be a better father to my 175 children”. He is yet to meet 34 of them.
He said that he is in touch with many of his sons and daughters. He said he remains in touch with the 56 who live in New York, the 20 in New Jersey and the 13 in Connecticut.
“Some moms don’t want me to play a role, but I leave them the option if they change their mind, and most do once the child gets a little older and starts asking questions,” the ‘Sperminator’ said.
He said he keeps a spreadsheet with the names, birthdays, addresses and phone numbers of each offspring. He also puts up pictures he has of them around his Kingsborough office.
Nagel said he plans to spend this Father’s Day by visiting the Bronx Zoo with a handful of his kids, along with their mothers.
