MrBeast held a real life Squid Game for $456,000 and the internet went wild

YouTuber, entrepreneur and philanthropist MrBeast is known for his super-expensive, highly-entertaining internet escapades but his latest projects truly takes the cake.

The popular YouTuber reportedly spent $3.5 million to recreate the games from popular Netflix Squid Game, welcoming 456 contestants to compete in a safe, violence-free iteration of the challenge. The game include replica set-ups of games like Red Light, Green Light, Tug of War, marbles and more, with the final game being musical chairs instead of the actual squid game.

In a recent tweet, he stated that the project cost him much more than he expected but he was in too deep to quit at that moment, going on to create a video which has since garnered over 95 million views.

Would you take part in such a project?
