'Another World': MrBeast's $10M Winner Reveals His Strict Game Rules for Amazon

1,000 competitors , games similar to those of Squid Game and $10 million up for grabs: the new game imagined by the most followed YouTuber in the world, MrBeast, has caused a lot of talk. Broadcast and produced by Amazon , the program allowed a 44-year-old man, Jeffrey Randall Allen, to win this sum - skimmed off the taxes in the process.

Speaking to the Dailymail, he first recounts that MrBeast's teams confiscated his phone, his computer and even his smartwatch: "They took all our technology and locked it in a safe," explains this father of two.

The lack of a watch also allowed the candidates to lose track of time: "I remember it was the penultimate challenge of episode 9, and I was able to talk to one of the MrBeast employees, I asked them what they were going to do the next day." That's when he learned that the American football season was starting: "I just thought 'is it September already?', we were really in another world." Filming thus lasted several months.

He further reveals that most of the challenges were filmed at night, between 11pm and 5am.

In front of MrBeast, Jeffrey Randall Allen says he saw a person "better than [he] expected": "He's extremely talented and he's kind of a philanthropist... He likes to give back. I was lucky to spend time with him, and he's great." He even explains that he admires a YouTuber who is only 26 years old: "As someone who has a little more experience in life, I think he's going to do incredible things and I'm happy to have been a part of it."

Behind the scenes, he reveals that he was surprised by the accommodation. For his game, MrBeast had a city built from scratch to accommodate the thousand competitors. Each house could accommodate up to 50 people, but with individual showers and bathrooms: "It was like a summer campfire."

But not all opinions are like the winner's. Five contestants have filed a lawsuit against MrBeast and Amazon , arguing that the production deliberately deprived some contestants of food, care and water, who were sometimes hospitalized. The YouTube star with more than 366 million subscribers is described as a person who creates a "toxic and hostile" environment, particularly for women.
