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".
- Two comrades enter, three parties leave!
- indoor cars struggle session let's go
  
  cars shouldn't be outdoors, therefore the only logical place for them is indoors
  
  cats should stay indoors because if the cat leaves then mr. bean might not give us our fucking money
- First person to quote Parenti owes the other one 50 bucks.
- Depends on the definition of "leaving", because most of us are so maladjusted that such an experiment would end in at least one death.

I would not trust the dude to not put me in the cube with a plant who walks out on day 99 just to watch me break down for the views
- 10000% there is a catch
- I’d tie an mfer up

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
- Oh the "if one of you leaves you both lose" is how he'd fuck me
- 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 would have 0 problem with living like this, it's called "ignore each other" lol
  
  y'ever read no exit
  
  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.
  
  Bet you $1000 they start blasting Guantanamo Bay tier music for 6-12hr periods before day 20.
  
  "make it hard to sleep"
  Dawg i have insomnia. At least i wouldn't be not sleeping and then working a 10 hour shift
- I'm pretty sure he means literally never exiting the room for 100 days. At all.
  
  Yeah duh that's the premise

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.
  
  It would suck but this is also like 4+ years of income for most people. You'd have to drag me out of there lol

Would you shoot mr beast for fifty bucks?!?
no i'm genuinely asking, would you? hmu
- Fifty bucks is fifty bucks.
- I would pay way more than fifty bucks
- need more than that for supplies, dm me, jk lol, i love the NSA!
- I can't confirm or deny, but I think you know what the answer is.

What if we get Mr beast to lock himself in a room with Jake Paul and say whoever makes it from now on will be the only content creator on YouTube. Then we just never let them out and turn off the Livestream.
- In a perfect world
- similarly I'm a celebrity get me out of here but we never let them out of the jungle

i hate this, and i also hate that my answer is "yes"
- i'm going to choose not to hate that my answer is yes, capitalism has my sorry ass trained for nothing less than feel miserable all the time, might as well get a house out of the deal y'know

If your source of entertainment is putting people through misery to test how desperate they are for money then I don't give a fuck about whatever good PR he may have, he's a ghoul.
- He’s just running a Squid Game
  
  mayos can't into creative plotlines
- Exactly my thought.
  At this point this is making a joke of the entire population of people that are working hard to just get by. Rich ass dude running experiments on Live People.

So it's just a soft prison and you come out richer? I could afford the therapy I need after something like this, as well as the therapy I likely need already.
- i just want to know if there's anything to do
- Not even prison this shit is jail

The $500k is a lie

that immediately tells you how much he would make from it. Probably 5 times that amount. Plus he would probably find some real abhorrent people to do it, like people who don't shower or something.

the youtubers.

nah, id have to interact with mrbeast and id rather die than do that.

He sucks so much lol

I TRAPPED MY SUBSCRIBERS IN A ROOM, AND THE ONLY WAY TO GET OUT IS TO GET THE KEY SURGICALLY IMPLANTED INTO THEIR LEGS!
- He looks satanic

Yeah, actually this seems like a dream for me, would be a super easy win as long as the other person doesn't get tired of me. Can I actually just move in, without the cameras?

I'm gonna do this because if you lock me in a room for 100 days with someone either we fuck endlessly or kill each other. Either way it will be unmonetisable
- Unless cameras

Japan has been doing these type of 'game shows' for decades.
The west is just now catching up , see The Eggplant show.

Depends, what months will this take place? If it's November and December then count me in, this sounds way better than spending the holidays with my family

No Exit by Sartre.
That’s the comment.

Every once in a while I see a pretty large amount of money and it causes me to have an existential crisis. This is life changing money for most of the world, but also there's places that it doesn't even buy one of the cheaper houses. Where it really messes me up, though, is remembering that even those places have retail workers and food workers and day laborers and... how? How has the whole house of cards not collapsed?
- buying a house outright would also be pretty lifechanging

I hate this person so much.

If one of you leave the other gets nothing. This man is trying to create a fucking silence of the lambs ass kidnapping.
- Marx proposes a communist revolution

Idk about you, but compared to a Saw Trap, whatever drawbacks this challenge comes with it, it seems relatively more fair than even the most solvable ones of the franchise...

Tell me what's in that giant orange built-to-contain-something-super-hazardous-lookin' safe first

uhhhh where's the shitter?
- There looks to be a separate door on the right that has a "restroom" symbol/wording

This is just Susunu! Denpa Shōnen but way less insane.

question is the toilet just like right there in the room without smell barriers? cuz i gotta drop a dookie.

I'd only agree if someone cosplayed as Arnold Rimmer in a gingham dress on the other side of one of those windows. Accompanied of course by Mr. Flibble.

I've never played portal but isn't that a portal room?

I am somewhat tempted because it's nicer than my appartment

I'd like this person to fucking die so we can all be rid of his horseshit.

What if they fuck?

iirc he's friends with baked alaska, isn't he?
- Oh god. I didn't know anything about Mr. Beast but thanks for giving me a reason to hate him. Straight to Gulag for this one then.

There's unhealthy asocial behavior, and there's toxic inability-to-be-alone-with-yourself behavior and I think we're somehow seeing both of them in this thread. If you have trouble with either of these you should probably try to work on that if you can. You should be able to be alone and even bored for a while without going out of your mind over it.
