YouTuber 'MrBeast' Survival Project
Grows More Difficult Over Time, Stops to See Wife
A man who survived 45 days trapped in a mart received a prize of $450,000 (about 590 million KRW).
On the 3rd (local time), a video was uploaded on the YouTube channel 'MrBeast' featuring a man named Alex who was trapped in a large mart and received $10,000 (about 13 million KRW) each day he survived. The rule was that in exchange for receiving $10,000 daily, he had to return merchandise worth $10,000 from the mart.
Alex cooked and ate the food available in the mart, and even created a base camp and a makeshift shower area to rest. He also built a swimming pool to entertain himself and alleviate boredom.
On the 31st day of survival, the electricity went out, but Alex found a lantern to live by and stayed in a warehouse where he could see sunlight. On the 38th day, he felt depressed thinking about his family, and on the 44th day, he expressed extreme isolation, saying "I'm tired of everything."

On the 45th day, he met his wife who appeared as a surprise gift, and after winning $450,000, he ended the challenge saying, "There is no need to stay any longer."
