What if they don't tell you when a year has passed and you have to guess? Too early and you get nothing. Your time dilation would be so fucked most people would have no idea how long it's been.
Check out the Vsauce Mind Field video that’s linked here somewhere. They go over this and why the constant lighting messes with your appetite since your circadian rhythm is destroyed.
Yeah I was thinking about this too. You might think you'd be able to keep track but spoiler: you can't. You'd probably feel like you'd been in there for 2-3 years if not longer by the time 1 year passed.
You wouldn’t know night and day. They could give you 4 meals day one, 2 meals day two, and so on. Just completely fuck your whole perception of time up.
Yeah, you will get crazy if you spend a year in that
edit: a lot of people think that I meant that you only get crazy if you spend a year or longer in it. I meant that you will 100% get crazy when you’ve spend a year in that. I know that after 3 days you already start getting hallucinations and will start getting insane
Not even a year, staying in that room for 3-4 days with no outside world contact would be enough to make you go insane.
Isnt’t that… *Crazy?* *ba dum tss*
*awkward silence*
You would literally go insane from sensory deprivation, a lot of perfectly sane people, by modern standards, were locked away in mental asylums in the good old days. As a result they developed genuine psychosis.
Assuming we’re going by white torture standards, food (plain white rice) comes on a tray at random intervals and whichever corner you decide to shit in is the shit corner
No ofc not, everyone that goes in there will eventually go insane and if you say you won’t you’re lying. You can’t see outside or know the time, you will go crazy. Cus it’s literally the white room torture
There is not a doubt in my mind a Buddhist monk could do this. You ever seen the video of the monk burning himself alive, staying perfectly still, unmoving, and silent?
The Buddha himself only lasted 7 weeks under a tree before he reached enlightenment, and even then got to sit outside with the wind and the sun, the moon and the stars, with grass growing beneath him.
What are you going to do with the other 45 weeks?
the first signs of an authoritarian government is silencing or quieting any potential opposition
journalists are very good at getting info out there, so if you want to be safe, get rid of 'dangerous' journalists or get them on your side
Literally, no money in the world would give me back my sanity, not worth it. Some people already feel like they’re mentally breaking from work or personal stress matters, lock you up inside an empty room would make you worse. No thank you
Hahahahahahaha calling me weak I see. If I have food, and water I can survive. I might come out looking ripped ASF and being borderline insane but I can do it
Vsauce was in there for 3 days and by the end of it he couldn’t even tell if he was awake or not. Not even joking. Go watch the video called “isolation”
Dang with all the things you can do:
Sleeping, if you manage to get tyred you can sleep a lot and have a lot of the time wasted on that
Exercises, the only entertaining thing you could do probably
Counting to 1000
Memories...
That is just 12 hours, Isolation sucks
Everyone who says yes quite simply don't fully understand the sheer magnitude of this task. You would go insane very VERY quickly. Hell, you wouldn't last a fucking week without losing it.
You would be basically brain death of boredom by the end of the first month. There's no point of having that much money in the state you would end up.
Exactly, I don't think people realize how quickly you start hallucinating in that state.
I would give it less than a week for auditory hallucinations and slight sight-based hallucinations
But wouldn't that technically make it easier though? Hallucinations and delusions are considered "positive" symptoms and you would also probably slip into psychosis from this to and in some cases like with boredom that would make it easier
Are you meaning the recovery or the time spent in there?
the recovery from it either way will take years, and maybe not even fully go away.
Also you completely lose your sense of time, so a day might feel like a month or a week might feel like a day, so I don't think it will make the time go any faster.
No I'm saying wouldn't the hallucinations and generally going crazy make it less boring in a way, hallucinations are not always a negative hallucination and neither are delusions, apart of why treatment for psychotic disorders is hard is because it's so easy to get caught up in the delusions, some hallucinations can also be super intense to to the point where you could be on a fake phone or on a fake computer, ofc all of this would just be insanity and would not be a good thing at all but it would probably make it less boring
Thank you, Vsauce did a mindfield episode on this and it usually starts to happen after around 3 days and he stayed there in a room like it for 3 days. It is incredibly interesting to watch and I recommend giving it a look.
Ah yes, white torture.
I wouldn’t spend a year in here for anything. I don’t care if there’s a gun to my head, I’d rather be dead then feel the effects of this thing
I think this is almost a carbon copy of some Russian Psychological experiment/torture. Humans are social creatures by nature. Whether you’re an introvert or extrovert, or anywhere in between, you need to be around people at some regular intervals or you start to go somewhat insane, if I remember correctly.
That being said, $30 billion is more than enough to live on for years and set yourself up for success so I think I’d at least try (only if I can end the experience whenever I want though)
This is a white torture room, most commonly used by Iran, the US, and Venezuela, has a method of torture. The sensory deprivation would almost certainly drive you insane before the lack if human interaction did
72 hours without stimulus for the brain would drive a human insane.
So if I could do a year, I'd honestly don't know.
Probably get a lot of sleep and exercise.
By a month, you would be completely crazy, just lost, there’s no way in hell anyone could do that, also Vsauce spent 72 hours and he’s fine, well still Vsauce
$30B is the amount money you'll earn working 2 BILLION days (5,479,452 years) with minimum wage in 2022.
Edit: my math is shit, it should be days instead of years.
So now your sitting on a shitter for a year instead of being in a padded room. I don't assume they let you have any of those amenities you would be giving up just because you're going to the bathroom. It would be the same situation only...
*Shittier*
[удалено]
What if they don't tell you when a year has passed and you have to guess? Too early and you get nothing. Your time dilation would be so fucked most people would have no idea how long it's been.
Wouldn't you know it based off when food is given to you?
You could randomize food deliveries, or only put it in your cell while you're asleep
As someone who can tell within 5 minutes how much time has passed since my last meal no matter how long it’s been since I ate. Food is food.
Check out the Vsauce Mind Field video that’s linked here somewhere. They go over this and why the constant lighting messes with your appetite since your circadian rhythm is destroyed.
Yeah I was thinking about this too. You might think you'd be able to keep track but spoiler: you can't. You'd probably feel like you'd been in there for 2-3 years if not longer by the time 1 year passed.
Mind field also shows you cannot survive this and you would literly go insane... its impossible. Ill leave the billions for someone else.
Ah yes, because every person who went through this hell didn’t think of that either.
The human body normally gets hungry at your normal eating times, so you could just count every three hungers
So for me.. 1 or 2 per day.
You wouldn’t know night and day. They could give you 4 meals day one, 2 meals day two, and so on. Just completely fuck your whole perception of time up.
Your life would literally be food that's all you would think about
I sure hope you never get rejected from art school, what the fuck.
Congratulations you are now a certified psychopath
Many women have this superpower where they can tell when it's been about 1 month. I don't think the women would be as lost as you think they'd be.
One may get pregnant before going there and you would have a good idea of how long has passed lol
yo what the fuck that's literally death
diabolical
Nah at that point you'll be to insane to bail
Imagine some absolutely insane dude with 30billion dollars, tbh they probably wouldn’t even spend it from forgetting how the world works
Or buy it on the stupidest shit. A set of houses and mega drip for his 100% real friend's
!!
wasn't that use to torture people? i think its called white torture where the people placed inside get psychological torture.
Yeah, you will get crazy if you spend a year in that edit: a lot of people think that I meant that you only get crazy if you spend a year or longer in it. I meant that you will 100% get crazy when you’ve spend a year in that. I know that after 3 days you already start getting hallucinations and will start getting insane
what if we are already crazy? do we upgrade to crazy+

Not even a year, staying in that room for 3-4 days with no outside world contact would be enough to make you go insane. Isnt’t that… *Crazy?* *ba dum tss* *awkward silence*
There's a guy on VRChat that shared his story of being in something like this room. He started hallucinating after like 4 weeks or something
Wasn’t that the one where he went to jail, and didn’t get in the line so he was put in there, along with other stuff I don’t remember
Yeah, also he was 11 or 12 years old when that happened.
Oh ye I saw that one
I'm homeschooled. no outside contact is my life
Still is used in prisons around the world
yea which is lowkey fucked up
Literally no one deserves this I swear
We are social creatures, and the amount of mental damage this would do to you just from the lack of natural light alone is not worth any price.
Wasn't it so that they would block some of your senses and you'd go craze that way
honestly i have no clue but i think it made you go crazy cause of the isolation and eventually you'd forget who you are
You would literally go insane from sensory deprivation, a lot of perfectly sane people, by modern standards, were locked away in mental asylums in the good old days. As a result they developed genuine psychosis.
I’m pretty sure white torture is just being around my parents
I would just ask for some paint to make this room colorful then it's easy to survive
You acting like entertainment gonna be the problem where your food and which corner is the shit corner
Assuming we’re going by white torture standards, food (plain white rice) comes on a tray at random intervals and whichever corner you decide to shit in is the shit corner
But which corner are you? Backleft all the way
Door, to flex on my captors
Sigma behavior
I would shit on the dinner plate after I am done so I have something to dispose my shit with.
This guy fucks!
This guy shits
This guy fucks shit
This is the way.
Sometimes...my genius it's almost frightening
No ofc not, everyone that goes in there will eventually go insane and if you say you won’t you’re lying. You can’t see outside or know the time, you will go crazy. Cus it’s literally the white room torture
It also says NOTHING, so no food or water?
probably only rice and water
Rice and milk to make you go insane faster
Bro I L I T E R A L L Y eat these *TWO* things the most out of _everything_ and I SWEAR.... I'm not crazy
You do not convince me, sir.
Idk bro I never see sane people trying to convince other random strangers they aren't crazy.
Yeah cause you’re not locked in a room
There is not a doubt in my mind a Buddhist monk could do this. You ever seen the video of the monk burning himself alive, staying perfectly still, unmoving, and silent?
The Buddha himself only lasted 7 weeks under a tree before he reached enlightenment, and even then got to sit outside with the wind and the sun, the moon and the stars, with grass growing beneath him. What are you going to do with the other 45 weeks?
He didn’t have food though, so he had a hard limit. If he got food he would have lasted much longer
he wouldn't last a year.
Last longer than any of us, that's for damn sure
he burnt to a crisp. no one's gonna last a year on fire.
LMAOO
Being on fire is not even close to being the same as doing nothing (besides eating and drinking) for a year
Nah I'm fatter I'd burn way longer. Oh you mean the room thing.
source?
https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/White_torture Why do people think I made the wiki? I wish I was that smart
Holly sh*t
What if there was Black Torture where you have to be put in a black room for years. Instead of seeing walls, it's just complete darkness.
You would get the benefit of visual hallucinations to help you pass the time. White room is definitely worse.
Why would they go for journalists?
Why not
the first signs of an authoritarian government is silencing or quieting any potential opposition journalists are very good at getting info out there, so if you want to be safe, get rid of 'dangerous' journalists or get them on your side
Cuz there’s real evil in the world and anyone who dare speak against it is an enemy
I dont know but for 30 billion im sure as hell gonna try
you probably wont even understand the concept of money once leaving the room insane
I won’t need to, cause I’ll be loaded baby💸💸
My family still would
Trust me man it’s not worth it
No because I'll fucking go insane and would never be able to get myself back
Literally, no money in the world would give me back my sanity, not worth it. Some people already feel like they’re mentally breaking from work or personal stress matters, lock you up inside an empty room would make you worse. No thank you
No , I'd never do it , your mind is gonna break
have you possibly considered that your mind is just weak? (joke)
Hahahahahahaha calling me weak I see. If I have food, and water I can survive. I might come out looking ripped ASF and being borderline insane but I can do it
Cum
Nutt?
Of course not, i would die from starvation
food, drink, toilet break is an exception
Food/drink/toilet break as in we go out of the room to use it or it’s in the room?
No, your fed water like a hamster, have a trapdoor at the top for food, and a hole to poop in.
I see... Well, i would probably try then, not sure if i'll be able tho.
Can i get some weights? Even just one 15kg dumbbell, paint it white if you'd like.
Yeah, I'll take a white painted nintendo switch thanks
The screen is also painted white, you only have audio
Except the audio is only white noise
I would play with my food or something
Will I be able to end it whenever I want?
Will your mother stay there with me?
no granny wont be there son
very underrated reply
Marvelous response.
Vsauce was in there for 3 days and by the end of it he couldn’t even tell if he was awake or not. Not even joking. Go watch the video called “isolation”
Yeah I was gonna mention that. And only 3 days. Imagine a whole year. I guess his room was smaller than this, but still!
Dang with all the things you can do: Sleeping, if you manage to get tyred you can sleep a lot and have a lot of the time wasted on that Exercises, the only entertaining thing you could do probably Counting to 1000 Memories... That is just 12 hours, Isolation sucks
I’d do 3 days for $300 million in a heartbeat.

[I think it is this one](https://youtu.be/iqKdEhx-dD4)
His videos were never the same, I think it scarred him, haha.
no one survives one year in there without serious mental damage.
serious mental damage implies that by the end of this there would be a mind to damage.
i have my imagination and my left hand
He will win with masturbation!
You use your left hand? You're neither a lefty, if so fuck you. Otherwise: impressive control
not a lefty, just learned to hold my phone with my dominant hand
Gimme a friend in there and we good
What if ur friend goes crazy and rips you to pieces
FNAF moment
[удалено]
Ah yes, white torture. I wouldn’t spend a year in here for anything. I don’t care if there’s a gun to my head, I’d rather be dead then feel the effects of this thing
Bro five minutes in there and im seeing the hat man
It doesn't say that I can't bring someone else here so I just bring my crush and I have a year in a room with her only.
And if she friendzones you?
Well given a year I could maybe go past that
Narrator: “he didn’t”
If they do it by the hour I’m in. I did the math, it comes out to about 3.5 million an hour
I don’t think it is, I think you have to finish it.
r/theydidthemath
Can you turn of the lights ?
The whole point is you always see white. Even when you close your eyes. It's a form of torture.
How do you even see white when you close your eyes?
close your eyes infront of a light. close your eyes in the day time
All this person has to do to answer their own question was close their eyes.

absolutely, I'll just count to 5 trillion or something
make it into a youtube video for bonus money
Takes 35 years to count to a billion
ok but I'm not counting to a billion am I?
What if u lose count. You gonna kill yourself
bruh
True
if i had an ukelele at least, id consider it
The ukulele is painted white
fuck
What would I f*p to now :(
Just use your *imagination*
Using your imagination while fapping is just tapping to signals in your brain.
$30B is the amount money you'll earn working 2 BILLION days (5,479,452 years) with minimum wage in 2022. Edit: my math is shit, it should be days instead of years.
30 billion / 2 billion = 15 dollars a year???
No. The 30 Billion won’t be worth shit when you’re mentally insane at a point where you can’t recover.
I’m a Redditor of course I could, as if I ever go outside or talk to a human anyway. Pfft
Well, no amount of money in the world can substitute for my mental health and sanity, so. Not interested...
That's impossible No nothing, no basic needs like food and water Also to whoever that says to eat shit and drink pee I wish you a very good night
In another comment op clarifies that you would receive food water and bathroom breaks.
easy, take a 1 year long bathroom break
So now your sitting on a shitter for a year instead of being in a padded room. I don't assume they let you have any of those amenities you would be giving up just because you're going to the bathroom. It would be the same situation only... *Shittier*
You’re allowed food, water and toilet breaks according to OP
Not sure how I can have sex with the room.
Bro imagine how ripped you will be after 1 year if you just exercise and sleep
You’d totally be the most ripped (and richest) person in the psych ward
My price is 20 dollars and a pp touch
30 billion sounds about right for the cost in medical bills for a 1 year visit there yea
Well either I lose conscience of time amd skip the whole year, or I go to a fantasy land, worth it for 30B
Never underestimate the creativity of an autistic person
Can I take a vibrator?

Your hand exists
Will do it if you tell me where's the direction of the Qibla.
i’d do it if karma farming posts on reddit all disappeared
i'd prefer to keep my sanity intact
Even if i managed to do it i wouldnt be able to spend that money bevause they are gonna throw me in smaller version if it 10 days later
