MagellanTV is offering the four-figure payout to the person who can watch its prepared list of 16 documentaries within 24 hours.

“Our candidate has a passion for all things true crime. They can handle the creepiest serial killer, the grizzliest details, and the haunting spookiness of the paranormal. So much so that our candidate is willing to stream it nonstop for 24 hours straight,” the company wrote in a statement.

If the challenge seems too easy or you’re toying with the idea of letting the stream run its course in the background, MagellanTV has an extra condition for the participant.
