Popular YouTuber MrBeast comes under fire after ‘torturous’ challenge where followers could win $500,000 | celebrities

celebritiesWould you spend 100 days in a room with a stranger to earn $500,000? That’s the question popular YouTuber MrBeast, 25, asks his 189 million followers. So his latest challenge was met with a lot of criticism. “He tortures people for money and pretends to be entertainment.”

In the latest challenge from Jamie Donaldson, known as MrBeast, two strangers will spend 100 days together in one room. That’s the equivalent of about three months and two weeks. The door to the simple room opens, but if either participant leaves before the end of the 100 days, they both lose money.

The room is all white with blue lighting and contains two mirrors, a small sink and faucet, two simple beds and a shared toilet area. We see this in the photo shared by the world-famous YouTuber on “X”.


On paper it doesn’t look bad. Sit in a room and do nothing and make $500,000. But 100 days is a particularly long period of no contact with the outside world. Therefore candidates are not allowed to use phones, laptops or other electronic devices. In addition, they do not see sunlight.

Psychological consequences

According to many, it can only have a negative impact on mental health. “People are psychologically damaged in this challenge. And all for a cash prize and a YouTube video. This is crazy,” someone wrote on “X.” “This is truly a nightmare. He tortures people for money and pretends to be entertainment.” And also: “This challenge goes too far. It can have serious physical and psychological consequences. How can anyone think this is a good thing? However, MrBeast doesn’t care about the criticism. It has since been announced that the experiment is already underway.
