"Living Legend"— Beast Games fans react to Harrison turning down a $1 million bribe

Prime Video's Beast Games aired episode 3 this week on December 26, 2024, at 12 pm ET. The episode saw the continuation of Mr. Beast offering bribes up to $1 million dollars to the four contestants, who were chosen by fellow cast members as their respective leaders.

None of the players took the bribe which saved their team members. One of the players, Harrison was eliminated in the same episode. Fans of the reality show praised Harrison online and commented on his elimination. One person wrote on X:

"#BeastGames is wild. This guy turned down a million dollars for people he doesn't know. They called him a living legend, only to not honor him in the next game, and get him eliminated! WICKID PEOPLE. BUT HE SHOULD HAVE TOOK THAT MILLY."

"Harrison is one of the best contestants I’ve ever seen on any show! He deserved to stay in the game," a fan commented.

"This guy Harrison turned down a MILLION DOLLARS. He's a personification of integrity!! @MrBeast Jimmy you gotta do something for him, at least have him in your next videos," a tweet read.

Fans of Beast Games said they respected Harrison for making that decision:

"I respect him, but honestly I would've taken the million without hesitating. At the end of the day it's a competition, and he saved a lot of people that won't even win," a person wrote.

"Justice for Harisson. @MrBeast we want him to one of your YouTube challenge..." a fan commented.

"I like him the most - his "friends" should have given him immunity in episode 3," a tweet read.

Fans of Beast Games further said:

"What an idiots the change that you are the person that wins that 5 mill is so small there is no way im rejeceting 1 million so a bunch of strangers can go on with the game. 1 million is literally life changing money," a person wrote.

"All 4 captains turning down $1 million for some sense of loyalty and respect to people they've only known for a few days is absurd, especially since IT'S A GAME and there's only 1 grand prize winner. If they walk out with 0 dollars, that's on them," a fan commented.

Harrison gets eliminated from Beast Games after turning down a $1 million bribe

In Beast Games episode 3, four captains were offered a $1 million bribe, however, none of them took it. Mr. Beast, the host of the show eventually took the offer off the table and told the large pool of contestants that all four of them rejected a million dollars so their teams could stay in the game.

"They're not gonna think this is real," Mr. Beast said.

As the teams celebrated their captains, the host said in a voice-over that the four Beast Games contestants said no to $1 million, not for their friends but for people they had only known for a couple of days.

In the next game, the players had to form groups of three, and one of them had to be eliminated. Subsequently, Harrison was paired up with players, 803 and 847.

"Are you sure you don't want immunity for your sacrifice that you made yesterday?" player 803 asked.

Harrison, or played 251, refused immunity and said he was "cool" with leaving it up to chance. The three Beast Games contestants decided to use sandwiches to determine who would be eliminated. They ordered three sandwiches and noted that whoever had "two pieces of meat" would handcuff themselves to the wall.

Harrison got the sandwich with two slices of meat and had to be eliminated from Beast Games in episode 3.

Fans online reacted to the cast member turning down $1 million and being eliminated soon after.
