If it were any two of us on day 100 we would be so deep in some obscure struggle session we’d be like “go away we’re not done arguing”.

cars shouldn’t be outdoors, therefore the only logical place for them is indoors

it’s for their own safety, and ours. Any cars found outdoors should be captured, spayed, and impounded.

Depends on the definition of “leaving”, because most of us are so maladjusted that such an experiment would end in at least one death.

Reality TV brain’s byproducts made “influencers” like him over time, so it’s pretty likely he would do that for clicks.

Is this even a question? Mr beast knows a lot of people have roommates, right? Who have to live with each other much longer than 3 months??

I would do this shit in a heartbeat like god damn. Fuck rich people for making a game out of my life but I’ll take literally 25 years of income in exchange for 100 slightly awkward days

You don’t live 2400 hours at a stretch with your roommate with zero breaks or outtimes, bro. I doubt you can even live with your SO that long without going out once. Even those in jail get to go out of the room every day.

IIRC there is a popular folk tale about this. A king was exasperated with his princess who got down bad for some peasant, so he locked both of them together in a room for a month and when they came out both of them had nothing but abject hatred towards each other.

I remember an anecdote from The Expanse books. A crew of some ship were stuck in a room in some kind of emergency situation for months. When they were rescued, a handful of them formed lasting marriages, and the rest never spoke to each other again

It seems easy but for the clickbait views mr beast always does some dumb shit to annoy the contestant or make it 10x harder than it needs to be. I’d imagine they will make it hard to sleep/concentrate or some other dumb method to speed the process up.

I’m pretty sure he means literally never exiting the room for 100 days. At all.

So much of that creepy saccharine ghoul’s antics involve flicking his pocket change at the peasants to see them scramble and perform for him.

This is Rockefeller shit all over again.

100 days doing nothing for a guaranteed $250k seems kinda easy tbh, biggest concern I’d have is whether the second person is a fool or not because like 14 weeks is fucking nothing.

You sure? I feel like this is really difficult unless somebody already like literally never goes outside and never opens their curtains for weeks at a time

I’ve gone like actual months without leaving the house and even this I couldn’t handle. No privacy, obnoxious lighting that’ll trigger a migraine in a heartbeat, no entertainment. Just sitting day after day staring at the wall because the stranger and you had a falling out on day 2.

I think it’d be harder alone, but with someone else there to talk to, that’s easy. With a common goal, you could also hype each other up.

Though for 500k, that’s lifechanging, I think could do it alone too. There’s enough space and props in there to exercise and make my own fun.

Depends on what else is in there tbh. I gave myself photosensitivity after a few years not opening my curtains.
