People all agree on one thing they'd never do for any amount of money after footage causes 'panic attacks'
The horrifying footage has left people's skin crawling
Have you ever asked yourself what you'd do for $ 1 million?
Would you hike up Mount Kilimanjaro or run 15,000 miles like Forrest Gump? Or maybe you'd be willing to eat your body weight in rotten eggs?
Well, people onsocial mediahave recently been posed with this question alongside a video that's triggering their claustrophobia.
In the video is fromYouTuberCaveman Hikes, who challenges himself by squeezing into extremely tight spaces in caves - and the idea alone sends a shiver down my spine.
Gilles Beaufils and his wife purchased the $ 10,000 abandoned house in Japan
Purchasing a house on the cheap and renovating it in the hope of making a huge profit is a screwed investment opportunity for a lot of people.
However, one couple who decided to take on a similar project have issued a warning to those thinking about purchasing a run-downed home - adding that they will never do it again.
After three decades of working in Tokyo , Gilles Beaufils fancied a change of scenery.
He subsequently met his wife in the city and they began their own business in both video production and real estate management.
Beaufils then realized that there was no obligation for them to be working from Tokyo, so they looked into the possibility of moving.
"Because of what we do, it's not like we're busy every day," Beaufils told Business Insider.
"When we have downtime, instead of staying in Tokyo, it is better to be in the middle of nature."
After agreeing to relocated, the couple decided to look for a property in the Saga Prefecture on the island of Kyushu.
And once that was sorted, the couple had to decide on a new home.
They quickly decided they wanted an akiya - old, abandoned houses in many rural areas of Japan.
After spending hours researching and looking into the right property for them, the couple set their sights on a traditional Japanese home in the rural village of Okawachiyama.
The home was over a century old, though Beaufils said that it had been left vacant for ten years.
"The people who used to live there died and the kids did not want to take over," he said.
"But I enjoy doing renovation and interior decoration, and owning an akiya was the perfect chance for me to work on these kinds of things."
It took Beaufils, his wife and their 31-year-old son four months to renovate the property in winter 2019 - only leaving the likes of the electricity and plumbing to the 'professionals'.
But he said that the whole process was very physically and mentally taxing as the family worked six days a week for four months with very few breaks, as well as also having to deal with work matters occasionally.
Because of this, Beaufils is now warning others not to rush into a purchase just because the price is low.

The video has amassed a staggering 18 million views (@ CalvinHikes / YouTube)
In this video in particular, the guy is doing something he calls 'Downward Dog' - and he does not mean the yoga pose.
The man is crawling in an extremely tight space, so tight that he had to keep his head to the side so that he can fit through.
No thanks.
He pretty much has to wiggle like a worm to move along, and many have argued that such a task would not be worth doing for $ 1 million (and I agree).
On the YouTube Short, someone replied: "You could pay me a million dollars to do this and I would never ever do it."
"No money in the world," agreed a second. "I'm panicking enough by just watching it."

Many people were in agreement that they would not do it (Twitter)
A third went on: "I'm a broke minimum wage worker and you could offer me a million dollars and I'd still say no."
Elsewhere someone else dubbed the scenario as their 'worst nightmare'.
The video was first shared on YouTube in 2022 but is now doing the rounds on Twitter.
The original clip has a staggering 18 million views.
In the post, social media users were asked if they'd also do it for $ 1 million or not.
"Gonna have a panic attack just watching this," one person wrote yesterday (September 3).
A different person penned: "Just watching this video is making me gasp for air."

While it's unclear where the video was taken, some people questioned if it was Nutty Putty - a notoriously dangerous and compact cave.
In November 2009, keen caver John Jones climbed into the cave and ended up dying in what people still describe as 'the worst possible death' .
While in the cave, John took a wrong turn and ended up getting wedged in space that was so tight that he couldn't get out.
He got stuck around 400 feet from the cave's entrance and was left unable to turn around - the gap measuring just 10 inches by 18 inches.
Rescuers tried to save him, but sadly their efforts were in vein and John died at the age of 26.
John's body remains in Nutty Putty Cave, which closed permanently following the tragic ordeal - meaning it's unlikely it's the same cave featured in the video above. .Featured Image Credit: Caveman Hikes / YouTube

Hawk Tuah woman moved to tears as she's paid staggering amount for appearance
Only a month has gone by since THAT video and well,Haliey Welch is rolling in it after getting paid thousands for one club appearance
It has been one month since the video of the 'Hawk Tuah' woman was posted, and the Benjamins are rolling in.
Haliey Welch coined the phrase ' Hawk Tuah ' followed by 'spit on that thang' during a viral video that got posted on TikTok and YouTube, by content creators Tim & Dee TV - who have since complained they've not received enough recognition for making Welch go viral .

Just so we're all reading from the same hymn sheet, 25-year-old Tim Dickerson and 24-year-old DeArius Marlow, AKA Tim & Dee , asked Haliey: "What's one move in bed that makes a man go crazy every time? "
Her reply: "You gotta give 'em that' hawk tuah 'and spit on that thing, you get me?"
Well, that 15-word reply was enough for Haliey to trademark the phrase 'Hawk Tuah' for comedy and apparel purposes, and she's also reportedly being paid serious cash for public appearances nowadays.
According to sources close to TMZ, Haliey raked in a staggering $ 30,000 for appearing at Daer Dayclub at the Seminole Hard Rock Hotel & Casino in Hollywood, Florida .
The pool party was thrown in the east coast state, in the city between Fort Lauderdale and Miami, to celebrate Haliey hitting one million Instagram followers over the weekend - and since then she now has 1.1 million followers.
She also judged a bikini competition and was joined by her Chelsea Bradford, who was by her side in the viral video.
Footage from the event shows Haliey moved to tears, with the amount of attention she's got over the past month likely to be a bit surreal.
And it's not just her public appearances that are raking in cash.

Family-run business Fathead Threads, owned by Jason Poteete, of Marshall County, Tennessee, teamed up with Haliey to sell hats with 'Hawk Tuan' 24 'on them.
Speaking to the Rolling Stone, Poteete estimated that in the first few days the shop had sold just over 2,000 hats, earning an estimated $ 65,000.
Talking to her followers last week, Haliey put to bed some of the rumors which have been circulating about her.
She said: "Am I a school teacher? That's false, I worked in a spring plant for about 10 months - but I don't work there anymore, but I'm not a school teacher.
" Did I really get fired from my job ? That is false, I quit my job to go travel. "
Well Haliey, you can certainly go traveling now - and you could probably make a few more bob at club appearances in every continent on the planet.Featured Image Credit: YouTube / Instagram / @hay_welch

He said: "There are a lot of disastrous places all over. Finding the right place takes a really long time, because looking at the property through photos and seeing it in reality are two different things."
The property owner then went on to say photos do not always show the extent of the deterioration of abandoned homes.
"They do not show you the moist, they do not show you the termites, they do not show you these kinds of things in the photos," he added.
"There are a lot of opportunities to live in the beautiful countryside with a nice cheap house.
" But you have to be careful also because sometimes, at the end of the day, it's not so cheap anymore. "Featured Image Credit: Gilles Beaufils / Base Camp Imari

Words you should never Google and what happens if you do
These are the words you'll want to avoid Googling heading into 2024.

Whether that is to find a solution to a burning question, or the popular search engine is always there.

Google and there are some things that are better left unseen. Sometimes life does not always come with a trigger warning, so consider this your friendly reminder to the billions who use the search engine every day, these words really are not worth a Google search. But what are they? The words were compiled in a report by It's Gone Viral, published earlier this year, and some of them are certainly stomach churning. Unsurprisingly, a lot of them are health related, as who does not immediately go to Google whenever they're feeling a little under the weather. That being said, it is important to remember that if you have any concerns about your health to consult a medical professional, instead of looking for answers on the likes of Google or Reddit. So, lets get into the words ... KDP / Getty Images Larvae The first word we highly recommend you do not Google is Larvae. The noun, which according to the Oxford Dictionary is the 'active immature form of an insect', sounds like an innocent search. According to the Reddit thread, the search risk factor of Googling Larvae is that you could stumble across a condition of the same name. According to WebMD: "Mouth larvae are parasites that hatch and live inside the oral cavities of human and animal hosts. These pests can cause a dangerous infection known as oral myiasis."
The site adds: "People can develop oral myiasis by eating larvae in their food. Flies can also enter the mouth and lay eggs in wounds."
Certainly a Google search to avoid then.
Degloving
Next up is Degloving - something you'll certainly want to avoid, particularly because of the images that will never leave your head.
Thanks to WebMD, Degloving, which can also be known as avulsion, 'happens when a large piece of your skin along with the layer of soft tissue right under it is partially or completely ripped from your muscles and connecting tissues.'
Definitely unpleasant.

Krokodil
This next word has different meanings in other languages, though the one discussed in the It's Gone Viral report refers to the opioid drug desomorphine.
A Time magazine report from 2013 dubbed it as 'The World's Deadliest Drug: Inside a Krokodil Cookhouse' - indicating how dangerous it really is.
It all began as doctors in Russia discovered 'strange wounds' on many drug addicts .
Later, it was discovered that they'd been injecting a new drug known as 'Krokodil', something that was later dubbed as a 'flesh-eating zombie drug' in a report from CNN.
Not really images you want in your head, right?
Fournier
You'd think this one wouldn't exactly be a bad one to Google, with Fournier a popular French surname.
However, Fournier can also refer to an 'acute necrotic infection' of the genital area, as per the National Organization for Rare Disorders (NORD).
WebMD warns: "Fournier's gangrene gets worse quickly and can kill you, so it's always an emergency."
Harlequin ichthyosis
The final word you really should not be Googling is Harlequin baby syndrome, often known as congenital ichthyosis.
Healthline describes it as a 'rare condition affecting the skin', which is a 'type of ichthyosis, which refers to a group of disorders that cause persistently dry, scaly skin all over the body.'
The website states the skin of a newborn with the condition is 'covered with thick, diamond-shaped plates that resemble fish scales.'
Babies with the condition need to be treated immediately.
You have been warned.
