    The prize is a surgery scheduled in advance to remove necrotic tissue from your back.

      This is not a problem for a healthy person, which is presumably why he didn’t need surgery to remove necrotic tissue from his back.

          While true in most cases, that doesn’t apply here. They were allowed to have books, their phone, and a break every 8 hours to use the bathroom. Succesptible people can form pressure ulcers in that time frame, but a healthy person with normal circulation and skin, and absent from moisture and friction, will not get bed sores.

          This is the lying down competition, not the bedridden and in a coma competition. No post performance surgery required, or else the $350 prize doesn’t go very far…

          Hi there, hello, it’s me, professional bed layer. For a year or so now I could only leave my bed to go shitting. No bed sores.

          There’s a difference between laying completely still and changing your position every few hours.
