Josh spends up to 100 days locked in a sealed room, earning $10,000 per day but losing one personal item each day. As isolation wears on him, the crew surprises him with a diamond shop to buy an engagement ring, and he proposes to his girlfriend Kenna over FaceTime.
Chapters
Every day he survives in this room, I give him $10,000. We literally have $1 million in cash here. So if he survives 100 days, he can become a millionaire. You're going to be poor. At any point, if you want to end the challenge and leave, just press this red button.
Got it.
You want to demonstrate it for us?
Nah, not going to have it that easy.
I'm going to dramatically seal the door.
Good luck.
So this is my apartment now. But instead of paying rent, I make $10,000 a day. This is going to be very easy.
Very easy.
Right there.
Woo!
Oh my God. Oh!
It's disco time.
Stop messing with the lights please.
La la la la la la—
Josh seems to think that this is going to be easy. I don't think he understands just how hard this is gonna get.
So I just woke up after my first night sleeping here and I'm probably just going to jump on the treadmill and then eat some breakfast or something.
Hello there, Josh. Oh no... it has officially been 24 hours but I left out IKEA for you guys so we can see what they have over at Ikea today. Element. When I give you the $10,000 like this, you have to let me take one item from this room. You have 10 seconds to hand me an item.
10 seconds? Oh my God. 8, 7, 6, 5, 4, 3, 2, 1.
I'm going to give you the ice cream machine.
Chris Chandler, you know what to do.
Okay. Oh my God. Chandler! Yeah! There you go.
You just got rid of the ice cream machine, which means you have 24 items left in this room to get rid of. And now that we just flipped your world upside down, I'm going to leave.
Thanks, Jim. So this genuinely changes everything. I'm actually worried about what I'm going to have to choose between, like family portrait or the guitar. On one hand, something to keep me busy, but that's also the only time I can see my girlfriend is looking at that picture. I just need to be strategic with the items that I'm giving away and make sure I've got enough to keep me occupied for the long run.
Breathe.
Hey, get off the computer!
Take the money!
Oh, wait, why'd you throw it? Give us an item. And a nice one.
This is the item that I will give you.
You want to give us another item?
What's in it for me?
Nothing.
Then no.
OK. Here's another $10,000. I request an item.
We got it for you right here, Jimmy.
What item do you think you'll get rid of next?
I think I'm going to get rid of the whiteboard next because I can write on the walls. He left, didn't he?
To make sure Josh was comfortable here, I gave him a private chef that will cook him literally anything he wants.
This is ridiculous. Let's try this. Oh my God. This is the best thing I've ever had.
Add it to the pile, boys.
I'll add another $5,000 if you let Karl pick the item. 3, 2, 1.
OK, fine.
Wait, really?
The picture of him with his sister.
Karl. This will look great in my living room.
I'm going to go insane now. That's the only time I can see my girlfriend.
I have to go film a video on sharks, so Karl's going to take care of you tomorrow.
Is there literally anyone else in the universe that can?
No.
So I'm in charge.
Yeah, yeah, yeah. You're screwed.
It's not going to fit in the hot tub. It's not going to fit. There's water everywhere. Whoa.
No.
Carl, I'm getting the flamethrower.
No!
Keep the markers.
Ah!
So I'm getting rid of the drum set today.
Oh, no!
I'd say it's a pretty eventful morning.
Oh, you broke the drum set. This makes me want to ask, mentally, are you OK?
Yeah, I mean, actually, got a lot of rage out. So now I'm feeling really loose.
All right. He doesn't know, but there's a check for $100,000 hidden in that guitar.
If he gets rid of the guitar without noticing it, that's $100,000 house.
Josh's room was getting pretty messy, so I paid a cleaning crew to come in and take care of it. And he somehow slept through all of it. It has officially been 8 days in this room, and for whatever reason, he's asleep at 6 PM. Probably because he's bored. Good morning, Josh. Good morning. Even though it's 6 PM, here's another $10,000 in cash. What's the item for today?
The flamethrower.
All right. The flamethrower is gone. We totally don't have anything else planned while we're here. Jimmy, what about— Don't give it away, Chris. We're good.
That didn't seem suspicious at all. For sure.
Wait, why is my face so distorted? I'm going to hand it off to Chris and— You know how dumb he can get. I am your god.
Chris, do you have to be so close to the mic? Show me the outside world.
You can't see anything except for like the black sky.
Is it dark outside already?
Yeah.
I've really lost all concept of time.
All right, Jimmy, I'm going to come get you. What's that over there? If Nolan spends the next 24 hours with you, I'll give you an extra $10,000 today. Do I get money too? No, just him. So I just have to stay in here? Ready to start the challenge?
Yeah, we're chill. Let's do it.
1, 2, 3. 3, 4!
You shouldn't have gotten rid of the drums.
I know, dude.
All right, I'm done.
I'm going home.
Nolan, you're not leaving.
I am leaving.
No, no, whoa, whoa, whoa—
Whoa, okay, it has a little bit of battery left on it.
It's you.
Shit! Ahh! Haha!
I can't take it anymore. They won't open the doors. Are you kidding? There's another wall!
Dunk contest.
Alright, let's go.
Yeah! Oh yeah! Come on!
Just two dudes in a hot tub.
Boys, there's another digit.
Yo!
Do you even know what that means? No. Can I just say whatever I want and you guys just don't question it? Yes. Yes. To celebrate 10 days, we had a custom $10,000 5-foot cake made for you. Oh my God.
Guys! Guys! Guys! I don't know what to do.
I'm just going to stand back and let this happen.
What do you mean let it happen? Eat it!
Oh my God, it's incredible.
Even though the cake is a mess, there's some of our Feastables bars on it. Just go to Feastables.com.
They taste amazing.
It's so much better than the cake. Enjoy your $10,000 cake.
Bye, Jimmy.
As of today, I'm now at $115,000 thanks to the extra $10 grand for Nolan staying here.
What up, Josh? Sorry I couldn't be there today. I'm out of town filming a different video, but we still got to give you your $10 grand. Cue it.
Oh my God.
Throw an item outside the door. Here we go, boys. Mission complete. Josh is getting super lonely. Every time I talk to him, he mentions how much he misses his girlfriend. Every day we've been grabbing a briefcase from this pile and look how much it's grown. The package has shrunk. Would you rather I deliver you another $10,000 in a briefcase or your girlfriend delivers it, but it only has $5,000 in it?
Is she here? Yeah.
Oh yeah, $5,000.
I don't care.
As I promised you, simp, here's your girlfriend.
Oh my God. Put that down. Here's your money, Antonio.
They look so happy. He's gone 12 days without seeing his girlfriend.
Been the longest that we've gone without seeing each other in our entire 6-year relationship.
Also, I forgot to mention that you only have 10 minutes. And it's been like 3, so you have like 7 minutes.
No!
I feel like as long as I know that you're doing okay out there, I'm going to be doing fine in here. It's kind of like surreal that you're even here right now.
I hate to ruin the moment, but the 10-minute timer is up.
No!
I'm deaf now. Love you, bye.
I don't know if this helped or hurted me. I hurt.
On day 13, Josh reminded me of a $10,000 bet he made with Chandler.
I'll bet you 10 grand I go longer than 10 days.
All right, deal. I'll bet you 10 more of Jimmy's thousands. How about I don't care what he's saying. Take this. No more bets.
I actually want you guys to take this $20,000 and I want you to buy a ring with it because I'm going to propose to my girlfriend at the end of this video.
Oh, wow. Are you sure you trust these hooligans to buy your ring?
I don't, but I have no other choice. On a real note, though, I have been wanting to propose to Kenna for years now. Being trapped in here has made me realize how valuable time is, and I'm just done waiting.
So the audio might have gotten messed up here. We're at the local diamond shop. But Chris and Chandler still made a deal with the jeweler and found the exact ring that Josh was looking for.
Yay, Josh!
We're back! So this is your first time ever seeing your wedding ring.
Yeah, this is crazy. Oh, yo, that's insane. Bits aside, this is exactly what I wanted. I literally can't stop looking at this ring, but to be honest, it's making me want to get out more than anything. Every day I spend in here, it's like I'm holding myself back from being engaged.
Josh has now made $160,000 and been inside of this room for 2 weeks, and I was out of town on day 15, so I had to FaceTime Josh with the special guest. Hey, buddy!
Is that Jake Paul?
You're just winning at life.
A perfect centerpiece to my room. The recliner's gone. I'm now down to 9 items, and I have no clue what I'm gonna give up next. I don't look stupid playing VR. You look stupid playing VR.
Oh my God. Oh no. Oh no.
No, it's gonna be the treadmill. Nolan's here to hang out.
What was that?
Ah! Whoa! Ah! What is that?
Maybe this is cheering me up a little bit. Knowing that I could leave right now with $190,000 is making it incredibly difficult. It's honestly like the lack of fresh air. I feel sick. The doctor checked me out today. My throat's like kind of messed up. Slightly considered the possibility of pushing the button.
Woo-hoo, I'm Josh. I'm making hundreds of thousands of dollars to lay in a room and do nothing.
OK, are you mocking me right now?
No, no.
Here's your $10,000. What's the item?
It's going to be the VR.
Then what are you going to do tomorrow?
Play guitar, I guess.
You sound defeated.
A lot of you guys are probably like, oh, this would be a cakewalk. It's the easiest thing ever. But it's something you truly won't understand until you—
You know what? You're right. It's very hard. You should just leave.
No, I can't.
Hello, Josh.
What's going on?
Is he wearing his clothes in the hot tub? Buddy, how you doing?
I'm just existing right now.
Just existing in the hot tub. The item he's getting rid of is the hot tub. You're in charge of removing it. Turn on the lights. Here we go. Oh, I don't think it'll fit.
Oh.
Wouldn't it just be easier to drain and assemble the hot tub in the room.
Wouldn't it be easier to worry about yourself? That's fair. I think I can ram the forklift into it and it'll just fall.
Oh no.
Oh my God. Oh my God. Honestly, Jim, this is the most excitement I've had the whole time I've been here.
It's actually very entertaining just watching him being an idiot.
Oh, stop, stop, stop. Oh my God. My room.
Oh no, I'm getting the rug pulled on me. What is going on?
Oh God.
Oh God.
Oh, he made it.
Oh, oh, oh.
How is this going well right now?
Am I going through the floor? You're about to.
Oh my God. Get it out. Go. Oh my God. The floor. Oh my God. He got it. He got it out.
Oh yeah.
Oh.
And that concludes Chris being an idiot. Here's what things looked like at the start of the video. And here's what things look like now. I think the forklift tire marks really add character.
I mean. Look at this place. I feel like I'm living in a construction zone. Oh, my God. I forgot about all the water jugs. Early on, I had to fill my hot tub up with more water because it was getting low, and I threw these up here. Can you give me the stars?
Lights on. What up, Josh? Josh?
I'm up here, Jim.
Here's your $10,000 for the day. What item are you giving up?
I think it's going to be the pool table today. Jimmy, can you let me down first?
Jimmy, no.
I don't want to be here anymore.
Then leave. I just made you rich.
Yeah, I know.
Thanks, Jim. Hey, on a real note, you're the best.
I love you.
Speaking of love, I talked to your girlfriend and she said she misses you a lot.
Oh.
That's enough human interaction. If you survive the night, we'll bring a ladder in the morning.
I miss everything outside of this dome. I just keep thinking about Kenna.
I think Josh is getting sick of people watching him all the time.
Let's go. Nope. Oh, no.
What are you getting rid of?
Basketball.
Say no more.
Oh my God.
Honestly, now the most exciting part of my day is them taking my items.
All he has left to live off of is this guitar and this bed and $230,000.
It's less depressing when you add that at the end. Because I kept the whole bed together, I only have the guitar, and now I need to start sacrificing sleep.
That's it.
That's the last straw. I just broke a string on the one thing that was remotely keeping me insane— keeping me sane. I can't even talk.
Woo!
Oh, that felt good. What is this?
What is this?
A check for $100 grand?
Woo! Let's go!
What's up, Josh?
Look what I found, Jimmy.
Why'd you smash it?
There's my item. 11 briefcases for today.
There you go.
Beautiful. Jimmy, it's time. Go get Kenna.
You want me to go get your girlfriend?
Right now.
Are you sure?
I am 100% sure.
You don't want to stay in this room?
I made $340 grand. I'm done.
I'm good. We're doing this thing now.
Okay.
And I'm leaving.
Enjoy the last few moments before he gets out.
I just want to talk for a minute, like on a real note. Spending this time apart from you has made me realize even more just how much I love you and need you.
He's about to do it. He's about to do it.
I want to spend the rest of my life with you, and I want to grow old with you. And, uh, I need to ask you a question. Oh my God, will you marry me?
Oh yes! Yes! I tricked them for the money.
They just And on top of that, we brought your family out.
Oh my God. Okay, let's take a step up. Yeah, let's go. You're going to make me cry.
