Five former contestants of the upcoming Amazon-backed reality series 'Beast Games,' created by YouTube star MrBeast (Jimmy Donaldson), have filed a class action lawsuit alleging chronic mistreatment and unsafe working conditions during production. The lawsuit claims contestants were denied fair wages, proper breaks, and subjected to a hostile environment, particularly affecting female participants. It details instances of sexual harassment, neglect of medical needs, and emotional distress, with participants reporting hospitalization due to dehydration and lack of care. Additionally, the suit alleges that contestants were misclassified as volunteers to avoid legal labor obligations, despite expectations of compensation and employment protections. The plaintiffs are seeking unpaid wages, damages, and accountability for the alleged exploitation and unsafe conditions they endured while participating in what was marketed as the largest live gameshow. Critics have raised concerns over the production's management and the treatment of participants, prompting broader scrutiny of reality television practices.
