No, MrBeast's new Amazon reality show isn't handing out the biggest prize in reality TV history

Amazon Prime Video touted the YouTube star's Beast Games as having a historically big prize with $5 million. But as Reality Blurred's Andy Dehnart, a $5 million grand prize has been done before, including on The X Factor. "Amazon’s announcement seems designed to one-up Netflix’s Squid Game: The Challenge prize of $4.56 million, which itself was declared to be the 'Biggest Cash Prize in TV History,'" he says.
