At an undisclosed location, eight strangers have been locked in a house to compete in the most obscene reality show competition ever put online.

FishTank Live is the creation of provocateur Sam Hyde and his prank group Million Dollar Extreme. Hosted on its own website, viewers can watch contestants, known as Fish, compete in challenges and live their lives through 10 cameras placed around the house, 24 hours a day for six weeks.

In the first three weeks alone, a mix of smaller influencers like Slyvia Dream (@pissrupt) and those looking for fame have been seemingly (in what appears to be a staged environment) waterboarded, swatted, and verbally abused by viewers over text-to-speech, all for the sake of entertainment and a cash prize of $30,000.
