All of these are just working people being toyed with by the rich for their entertainment and profit
Dude literally watched Squid Game and said that shit would be better if it were real then set out and did it.
I watched a video about it, and what's interesting to me is that he had an enormous budget for this Squid Game remake. He spent it on setting up hundreds of cameras, building a whole set where the game would take place, hired all kinds of camera operators... but didn't do even basic play-testing of the games he was going to have people play.
As a result, some challenges that were supposed to last for an hour or so ended up taking more than 12 hours. Some challenges that were supposed to eliminate half the contestants instead eliminated over 90%. Some challenges didn't work because people refused to eliminate their friends.
But for 5k a day.. Yeah, I'd waste three months of my life for that kind of money
And this is brings us to our next point--we need to tax the shit out of them.
Of course you would. I probably would too. It's life changing money. But the morality of these 'challenges' is extremely fucked. And $5k a day is pocket change to Mr Beast who makes $1.6 million a day 🤮
A 2.5 million private jet is, uh, probably not new.
The smallest Very Light Jets, like the Cessna Mustang or HondaJet, start around $5 million new.
So you're probably looking at a decades old plane, almost certainly not enough room to fully stand up, and possibly no lavatory.
I looked this up. It was a Hawker 400XP, worth about $2.4 million. Yes, it's a tiny jet.

Well that was an interesting source
So if this pilot users his new Jet to smuggle more drugs, is Mr Beast an accomplice?

It could be a Cirrus Vision Jet.
Edit: holy shit they've gone up in price to $3.2M. Damn inflation hitting private jets too. Nobody's immune
Look at Mr. Fancy Pants over here who knows about private jets
Hey, this dude has the value of knowing private jets weak points. Let it slide.
Ah yes, good point. @mkwt Tell us more about these jets, Mr. Fancy Pants.
Idk who you tagged but I hope it works
That's literally a description of society. Not just modern society, society throughout all of history. The rich and powerful have always toyed with the peasants.
These are just variations of game shows. Do X and you can win $/Prizes while they film it and play advertisements while people watch.
