Recently MrBeast recreated Squid Game and gave away $456,000 to the winner.
In this study we researched 2 factors.
1. The Chance that a person has to Win MrBeast's most difficult game so far.
2. The Extraordinary Odds of being chosen to participate in the first place.
Let's investigate by looking at the Top Highest-Paying Games to date.
THE TOP 4 HIGHEST-PAYING MRBEAST CHALLENGES
4) Hit the Target Win $300,000
In one of his recent videos, MrBeast came up with multiple
scenarios where the participants had to hit their targets to win cash prizes.
The final game consisted of five participants who had a chance to win $300,000
if one of them managed to hit a half-court shot on a basketball court.
Luckily, the final player managed to win the prize.
3) Last To Leave Circle Wins $500,000
In September 2021, MrBeast put a total of 100 people inside a giant red circle.
The challenge for the hundred people was to stay in the circle for as long as possible, and the last person to get out won the $500,000 prize.
2) Last To Leave $800,000 Island Keeps It
One of Jimmy's most successful videos to date,
the "Last To Leave $800,000 Island Keeps It", was filmed just over a year ago.
The millionaire bought an entire island which was valued at around $800,000,
to be given away as the prize to the winner.
The video revolved around the contestants surviving a series of
challenges and not getting eliminated off the island.
1) Guess the Combination for $1,000,000
But the highest-paying challenge is also the most difficult so far.
MrBeast gave people the chance to win $1,000,000 if they guessed
the values of 3 hidden dice and 1 hidden Playing Card.
So could you win $1,000,000 from MrBeast?
Here are the Odds...
-
Out of 88.9 million YouTube Subscribers, 49 million people tried to enter.
-
Only 10 people were asked to play the game itself.
Before the game even starts, an ordinary subscriber has a 0.00002% chance of being selected in the first place.
-
In the game you would need to guess the value of 1 card in a deck of 52 and the values of 3 hidden dice.
The Chance of that happening are 1 in 11232 (or 1 in 52x6x6x6)
Therefore, each of the 10 people had a 0.008% chance of winning
The combination they had to guess is in the photo below
However - it's so hard No-one has won it... Yet.
In fact, you'd have to be incredibly lucky to be entered - let alone win.
