A prankster spent 40 hours counting from one to 100,000 on camera because he was ‘bored’.
The American YouTube star, known as ‘MrBeast’, said he ‘tortured’ himself making the video.
The process took so long that he was forced to speed up some sections of the video in order to fit within the 24-hour maximum length for him to upload it.
Before embarking on his 40-hour challenge, he said: ‘This is the most I’ve ever tortured myself.
‘Why? Because I am bored. Do you have a life? No. Who is the Asian sticker? My best friend.’
He added: ‘I’m about to count to 100,000. You don’t believe me? Watch this video…Think of the pain I’m about to go through.’
As his counting progressed his words became more and more mumbled until it became almost impossible to hear what he was saying.
Towards the end, the YouTuber, who wore headphones in the video, started rocking on his chair and taking extended pauses between numbers.
After finally reaching 100,000, he smiled and said: ‘What am I doing with my life?’
Despite the repetitive nature of the video, remarkably it has been viewed over 6.8 million times.
In a caption accompanying the video, he wrote: ‘I can’t believe I did this..Like or I eat your food.’
Over 70,000 viewers have commented on the video, including Adonia Bree who wrote: ‘You spent a whole day of your life counting. I hope you live your life to the fullest hereafter.’
