The Scale and Ambition of Beast Games
Announced in March 2024, Beast Games was touted as MrBeast’s first-ever game show, featuring a staggering $5 million prize pool and 2,000 contestants. Filming wrapped up in September 2024, but the endeavor has been overshadowed by a series of alarming controversies.
Allegations of Inhumane Conditions
Reports have surfaced of “inhumane conditions” on set, leading to a 50-page lawsuit filed by contestants. One particularly distressing incident involved a contestant being hospitalized after a piece of set equipment fell on them. Such events have raised serious questions about the safety measures in place during filming.
Staff Experiences and Criticism
In interviews with Las Vegas 3 News, production workers expressed frustration with the chaotic environment. Rick, a production worker, described the management as “beyond embarrassing” and criticized the lack of professionalism. He stated that he wouldn’t be surprised if MrBeast’s team faced industry-wide repercussions for their mismanagement.
Medics on set reported that poor communication severely hindered their ability to provide care. Mona, a medic, shared that they were stationed at different non gamstop casinos without clear information, leaving some contestants without necessary medications. “There was no communication. Everything was on the fly,” she explained, emphasizing the disorganization.
Disturbing Incidents on Set
Additional accounts from contestant wranglers Kara and Hannah revealed troubling scenarios that further highlighted the production’s lack of preparedness. Kara recounted an incident where a team member was allegedly ordered to clean a porta potty mess involving human waste, a situation she described as a “major OSHA violation.”
Furthermore, Hannah recounted a shocking moment when a contestant suffered a seizure and reportedly went without medical attention for nearly an hour. These incidents have drawn parallels to the infamous Fyre Festival, with some staff characterizing the conditions as equally deplorable.
A Call for Accountability
The culmination of these issues has led many on the production team to call for MrBeast to be blacklisted from future projects. The allegations surrounding Beast Games paint a troubling picture of mismanagement and disregard for safety, prompting urgent discussions about accountability in large-scale productions.
