Survive 30 Days Chained To A Stranger, Win $250,000

Alison stood blindfolded in front of three strangers — a granny, a biker, and a gym bro — and had to pick one to chain herself to for 30 days. She chose the biker, Bryce, based on nothing but a quick look. "Only having that information, I'm gonna have to go with the middle biker," she said. It was a $250,000 decision, and she wouldn't know if she made the right one until the very end.

The Game's Structure

The challenge was straightforward on paper: survive 30 days handcuffed to a stranger, and the prize money gets split. But MrBeast layered in complications. Every five days, Alison would uncuff from her current partner and chain herself to a new stranger — chosen purely by appearance, with no conversation allowed beforehand. On day 25, all five strangers would return, and Alison would have to pick one to trust with the final decision: split the $250,000 or steal it all.

The twist kept escalating. On day five, Alison met her first new stranger — Skylar, a college cheerleader — and the original partner Bryce was sent away. "I feel like everybody that comes in here is gonna tell me that they wouldn't steal and that they would split $250,000," Alison said. She was right to be skeptical.
