How Sara and Tre Lost 160 Pounds Together in a MrBeast Challenge
MrBeast ミスタービースト
MrBeast's challenge for engaged couple Sara and Tre was simple to state and hard to do: lose a combined 150 pounds before their wedding and win $250,000. The video follows them over 163 days, through fitness tests, side challenges with extra money, a stretch of forced separation, and several points where Sara came close to quitting. The video presents the money as the prize, but it keeps returning to two other things: their health, and how much each of them depended on the other.
The Rules: A Gym, a Red Circle, and No Contact With Family
MrBeast opened by showing the couple a gym built for them and calling it a setup for "the biggest transformation on YouTube." The catch was a large red circle painted around their new home. If either of them touched the line before they had lost 150 pounds, the video would end and they would get nothing. Their wedding would also be the first time anyone in their families saw them since the start of the challenge.
The first day did not go well. Sara said she had never seen some of the equipment, called it "an alien concept," and said she felt embarrassed by workout gear she did not know how to use. That evening the gym went unused and the two talked about ordering food. MrBeast's narration concluded that they would need help.
Trainers and Baseline Tests
Each of them got an iFIT trainer, Bree and John. The trainers began by measuring baselines so they could track improvement. Sara managed one push-up. Both ran a timed lap of the track and did hangs and other tests. The narration says the daily structure of improving these numbers gave them enough motivation to get through the first week.
The trainers also mattered for another reason. Sara said that her experience with very fit people had always involved judgment, including from family members who made her feel "super judged." She described hearing comments like "big" and "fat" so often that she stopped reacting. She told the trainers she had never felt uncomfortable with them, and the narration credits this friendship with keeping the momentum going.
Small signs of progress followed. One of them reported 15,600 steps in a day. Pants were getting loose. One of them said they had not had a headache or migraine in about 20 days. Sara said that watching Tre stay consistent felt like getting "a whole new version of him" to fall in love with.
The Medical Picture From Function Health
The couple said they wanted to start a family and run around with their kids, and that their current health made that hard to imagine. The show brought in doctors from Function Health, introduced through Mark Hyman, MD, its co-founder and chief medical officer. The plan was to check insulin, hormone levels, and cholesterol, with the hope that the numbers would improve each month.
Hyman described the day-one results bluntly. Their metabolism was "just busted" and both were pre-diabetic. Tre's insulin was at 100 on a 0-to-100 scale where 100 is the worst. Asked how many years they might gain, Hyman said that all of it was fixable, and that if they fixed it they could live to 90 or 100.
Day 30 and the $50,000 Deadlift Offer
At the first monthly weigh-in, they had lost 43 pounds combined, almost a third of the goal. MrBeast then announced a side challenge. On day 60, they could load as much of $50,000 in cash as they wanted into two barrels on a deadlift bar. Whatever they could lift and hold for one minute would go toward their wedding. Taking the full $50,000 meant lifting a combined 320 pounds.
They chose the full amount right away. The trainers planned three days a week focused on the lift. One of them admitted to never having lifted more than a five-pound dumbbell before the challenge and said the idea of that deadlift was terrifying.
Sara's Low Point
The harder workouts wore Sara down. By day 35 her morale was fading; she joked that whoever designed this deserved "literal jail." By day 39 she was in tears in the middle of a workout. She explained that she had spent 39 days doing this after 27 years of doing none of it. Tre told her they would get through it together, and Sara said afterward that having him there gave her confidence and took pressure off.
They returned to the work, cooking meals together and planning how to spend the money on a photographer, videographer, flowers, food, and a tux. On day 49 they tried the full deadlift weight and dropped it. Sara said this was exactly why she avoided leaving her comfort zone: she does not put herself in situations where she might fail because she cannot handle it, and the failed attempt gave her more reason to doubt herself.
The Clothing Test
To lift their spirits, MrBeast brought in Chandler with new clothes. At the start, one of them had worn a 4XL and the other a 3XL. The new clothes were one size smaller in each case. Both fit, and both were even loose in places. Tre predicted his mom would ask, "Where'd my son go?" Sara said she had never seen herself as someone capable of losing weight or changing sizes. The narration says the clothes re-motivated them, and that despite the hard workouts they had started to enjoy being healthier. Tre summed it up as "Health is wealth."
Day 60: Holding the Bar
The day-60 weigh-in showed 76 pounds lost combined, about halfway. They then attempted the full $50,000 deadlift. MrBeast pointed out when they passed 48 seconds, the point where they had dropped it on day 49. As the clock ran down, Sara's hands began to shake. Tre and the crew counted down the last ten seconds while Sara shouted that she was not dropping it. They held the full minute, and the entire $50,000 went toward the wedding.
The Net and the Helicopter
The next challenge was a tall climbing net. If they could climb to the top within 30 days, MrBeast would pay for any honeymoon they wanted. In a cut to the future, MrBeast told viewers the twist the couple did not know yet: the net would hang from a helicopter 100 feet in the air.
Sara said she had never climbed anything in her life and did not like heights. During training she got stuck partway up, said she couldn't continue, and went inside. She said she was scared of being the reason they did not win. Tre told her she was "10 times stronger" than she thought. Sara said the climb had shaken her far more than she expected.
To cheer her up, the team shared Function blood results: Sara's insulin was down 82% and Tre's was down 83%. They were told this meant they were adding years to their lives, though there was still room for improvement. The narration says these tangible results helped Sara keep going.
Seeing that both of them were afraid of heights, MrBeast revealed the helicopter twist early so they could prepare, adding that they would be harnessed in. The news hit Sara hard. "I'm not Tom Cruise," she said. She described spiraling and admitted that "that red line, sometimes… it's tempting." With her thinking about quitting, MrBeast arranged a phone call with her mother, which the narration credits with getting her back to training. Alison, who was filming a separate MrBeast video in which a different stranger is chained to her every five days, also stopped by. Her advice was to pretend to love heights and lock in on getting into the helicopter.
Day 90: 107 Pounds and the Climb
At day 90 they were down 107 pounds, with 43 left to go. They were harnessed up, the helicopter lifted the net, and they had to climb it and get inside. Sara went first while Tre called up that he knew how strong she was. Then Tre climbed, and despite struggling with the final pull, he got in. MrBeast announced a honeymoon to Hawaii, provided through the Polynesian Cultural Center.
Pulling a Truck: 150 Laps, Then 300
Next, MrBeast showed Tre a Ford F-150. It would be his if, over the next 30 days, he and Sara pulled it around the circle 150 times, about five laps a day. Only the two of them were allowed to pull, and stepping on the red line still meant elimination. After the first lap, both said they were exhausted.
With 56 laps done and 20 days left, MrBeast phoned with a new offer: double the total to 300 laps and Sara would also get a new car, a Ford Bronco. They accepted, which meant roughly 15 laps a day in rain and heat. MrBeast came by to help pull and shared a tip for getting the truck moving: stay still and lean your body weight forward. MrBeast also asked each of them separately whether they could have done the video without the other. Sara said it would have been impossible. Tre said he would have struggled more and been bored, and that being there had made him love her even more. Before leaving, MrBeast hinted that the day-120 challenge would "totally not change everything."
The heat pushed Sara to her limit. She called it the dumbest thing she had ever done, said she had never experienced that level of pain, and repeatedly said she couldn't continue while Tre kept encouraging her. On day 120 they still had two laps left. MrBeast joined them for the finish, and they ended up running the last stretch. Both cars were theirs. They then got in and drove them, and one of them noted they had not driven in months.
The Briefcases and the Separation
The day-120 weigh-in showed 130 pounds lost, with 20 to go. MrBeast then revealed the final challenge: $50,000 in cash and five briefcases, each holding a fitness task. Each of them could win $25,000 by completing a task in 30 days. They had to accept or reject each briefcase before seeing the next one, and a rejected briefcase was destroyed.
The first briefcase was ten pull-ups, which was quickly passed. The second was a one-minute bar hang, and Sara took it, saying she knew she could manage a minute in 30 days. Tre passed on a 36-inch box jump and then on an eight-minute mile, calling it too hard and choosing to "risk it for the biscuit." He was left with the fifth briefcase: 30 push-ups.
Then came the twist MrBeast had hinted at. A second gym had been built, and Tre would train there alone for the next 30 days. Sara had spent the whole video saying she couldn't do it without him, and she said she had never gone more than 16 hours without talking to him. MrBeast explained that this was the point: until now they had leaned on each other, and the goal was to see whether they could succeed as individuals.
The gyms were close enough to see each other but they had no way to communicate. Sara watched Tre's garage door through her glasses all day, waiting for him to open it. When they finally saw each other, they could not hear anything. Both said they were bored, that time was moving slowly, and that they missed each other. Sara said her motivation had "plummeted." MrBeast then reminded them what they were working toward, and the narration says this renewed their determination. During this period, the team also covered some of the bigger wedding costs. Sara chose an item she wanted "sparkling" and picked her wedding dress with her mother. Tre picked his tux with his father, who noted that 80 pounds lost meant "a brand-new life." The narration says they trained harder over the next ten days than at any point in the video.
Day 150: Reunion and $50,000 More
On day 150, MrBeast let Tre cross the red line and return to Sara. Tre went first and completed 30 push-ups for $25,000. Sara then did the one-minute dead hang. When she arrived she could not hang for more than a second; now she said she felt confident, and she held the full minute for her $25,000.
The weigh-in showed 144 pounds lost, six short of the goal. They promised to lose the rest within 15 days.
Hyman then gave a fuller account of their health. He said they had been in some of the worst health he had seen. Tre had the testosterone of roughly a 90-year-old and probably could not have had a baby; that level had since doubled. Sara's celiac markers had returned to normal, her insulin had gone from very high to normal, and she had PCOS, which Hyman said causes infertility. According to Hyman, everything had normalized for her, and both now had much more energy.
The Last Days and the Letters
Near the end, the trainers said they no longer had form cues to give. The couple described a bittersweet feeling. One of them called it almost a rebirth and said that after most of the year there, all they knew was waking up and working out. When a trainer asked Sara about the most money she had ever had in her bank account, she answered $8,000.
After their last workout, they read letters they had written to themselves five months earlier. Sara's letter said her mental health was severely affected by her lifestyle, that she hated herself most of the time, and that self-doubt had kept her from prioritizing her health. She hoped that showing up for herself would change that, and that she and Tre would live "strong, long, and healthy lives." Tre's letter said he didn't know the last time he had looked in the mirror without feeling disgust, and that he hoped his future self felt better and was proud.
Final Weigh-In and the Wedding
At the final weigh-in on day 163, Tre reported a starting weight of 345 pounds and Sara reported 249. Together they had lost 160 pounds, beating the goal. Counting the $250,000 grand prize and the $100,000 from the two cash challenges, MrBeast deposited $175,000 into each of their Step accounts.
At the wedding, MrBeast said the red line, which "used to represent losing," now represented winning. The couple stepped over it together. It was Tre's mother's first time seeing him since before the challenge. In his vows, Tre said their six years together had been the best experience of his life and that he would support her even on bad days. Sara said she had watched him become a new man over 163 days, that he made her want to work harder, and that he had kept her grounded "when I was at risk of fleeing." The video ended with the kiss and MrBeast saying, "I don't think we're gonna get a better ending than that."
If this couple can lose 150 pounds before their wedding day, they win $250,000.
What the heck?!
And their wedding will be the first time anyone in their family sees them.
Ready to start? Yeah! Yes! Follow me.
Sara and Tre, I've built you this gym to give you everything you need to accomplish the biggest transformation on YouTube.
I don't even know how to use half of this stuff. We gon' learn.
And they'll go through the most extreme fitness challenges you've ever seen.
Oh, my God!
The only catch is, there's a giant red circle around your new home. And if at any point either of you touch that line before you lose 150 pounds, the video ends and you get nothing!
Stay far away. Stay— Oh, oh! Get your man! No, please. Please, please, please! Get your man! Stop him! Please, please, please!
Good luck! I'll see ya tomorrow.
What is this?! I don't think I've ever seen this before. This is an alien concept to me.
I feel a little bit embarrassed about workout equipment I don't know how to use.
So, you cookin'? We should order something. Oh, my gosh!
And with the gym gear untouched on day one, I think it's pretty clear these two are gonna need some help in the gym.
Day one! We'll see ya in the mornin'!
Obviously, we're not gonna leave you two hanging. We brought each of you your own iFIT trainer.
Hi! Yeah, guys! Hi! Wassup, guys? I'm Tre! Hi! Hi!
So we're gonna start with the pushups. Let's see how you do.
Okay! All right. Let's go!
She could only do one pushup for now, but the trainers were testing their physical baselines so they could improve them over time.
One lap around the track as fast as you can. Go! To the line, to the line, to the line!
Day by day, they worked on improving their baselines.
Oh, my goodness. Let's hang.
That's a benchmark! That's a benchmark! And it's gonna be so fun to watch that number climb.
Look at her go! Yeah! Thirty-seven, baby! Wow! Come on.
And that structure gave them the motivation they needed to get through the first week in this challenge.
Twenty-five!
Let's hope they do lose this weight in time for their wedding, because when they finally get married, that will be the first time anyone in their family sees them.
Oh! My baby!
It's now down to, do they want it? Oh, they want it. Gym bros for life!
But health is about more than just liking the way you look.
We wanna start a family one day, and the way that our health is now, I would not want to go through that process. I wanna be able to run around with the kids one day when I have them.
And to make sure that they're healthy when they start their family, we brought in the best doctors from Function Health to test how healthy they were on the inside.
And so Mark Hyman, MD, co-founder and chief medical officer of Function Health is here. We're gonna check their insulin levels, hormone levels, plus their cholesterol. And hopefully every single month those data points are improving and improving.
Absolutely.
What did their day one results show?
Their metabolism is just busted. They're pre-diabetic. Tre's insulin was so high, on a scale of 0 to 100, 100 being the worst, he was 100.
If everything goes well, how many years do you think we'll add on to their life?
If they fix all this, which is all fixable, they could live to be 90, 100.
Wow.
Living to 100 sounds great, but for people who've never exercised consistently, some of these exercises were still out of their reach. But with the help of their trainers, they continued to push forward.
Go! There you go!
And on their toughest days...
This is definitely gonna be a big change for me.
...having Bree and John in their corner would be an even bigger advantage.
Here we go. Here we go! Good morning! Wassup, guys?!
These two came here to lose weight, but it actually looks like they're making friends.
Pom, pom, pom. Pom, pom, pom, pom.
My experience with super fit people is always judgment. I have family members who make me feel super judged.
Ew, that's not fun.
I've heard so many different comments. Big. Fat. It happened so, so often that I just was like, "Okay."
The fact that people have that, they have the lack of awareness to say these things is insane. It seems like a lot of your experiences with fitness are kind of negative.
Oh, yeah. But I never felt uncomfortable with you guys.
And with their newfound friendship, they kept the momentum going, and it seemed like their hard work was paying off.
I feel like we doing a fantastic job, bruh! I'm so proud of her. I'm so proud of her.
I hit 15,600 steps today. These pants are literally loose on me right now.
I can even tell in your arms.
Really?
I haven't had a headache or a migraine in 20 days.
Watching him be so consistent and work so hard, I have a whole new version of him that I get to fall in love with again, and that's really special. And I didn't think I could love him more.
All right, it's now time for their day 30 weigh-in.
It's been a month! It's been a month! Yeah! You're ready to see it?
I'm so scared. Let's do it.
Step on the scale. Let's see how much weight they have lost.
They have collectively lost 43 pounds in the first month! Congratulations!
This is freakin' crazy! Let's go! You did more than amazing! Let's go!
You're almost a third of the way done in the first month. The wedding is gonna be amazing!
Speaking of your wedding, you have a chance to win $50,000 for your wedding by deadlifting.
Oh!
You see, on day 60, you can put as much money as you want into these two barrels.
Okay.
And if you can deadlift and hold it for a minute, I will put that towards your wedding.
Oh, my gosh! Okay!
That's 10 grand.
Okay.
Yeah, and it's a deadlift. It's not even a curl. You just gotta hold it up.
Just gotta hold it.
And if you want, on day 60, you can put all 50,000 in there and win 50 grand for your wedding.
We got some work to do! Let's go!
We got a little bit of work to do. We got some work to do.
We need that money, not gonna lie. So we doin' the whole 50?
We doin' the whole 50?
Of course, we're doing the whole 50.
Okay!
But if they want all $50,000, they'll have to lift a total of 320 pounds and hold it for a minute.
How heavy is that?
Too heavy.
Expect three days a week where we'll be really focusing on that lift out there.
Before coming here, truly did not lift more than a five-pound dumbbell. The idea of having to deadlift that, that has me terrified. Terrified.
The increasingly hard workouts were really challenging Sara.
How does that weight feel?
This is hard.
And by day 35, her morale was fading.
Whoever thought of this deserves jail. Literal jail.
And the worse her morale got, the worse her workouts got.
Come on.
I'm over it.
Hold on, hold on. What're you doing?
I'm over it. Don't care. I'm struggling. I feel awful. This sucks.
You okay? What's wrong?
I'm so not used to it. I've been doing this for 39 days after spending 27 years not doing any of this.
Look, it is all right. We will get through this together. Just remember that.
Having Tre gives me a lot more confidence. It does take the pressure off quite a bit to know that I'll be able to do it with him.
Whose house is this?
Mine, mine!
The couple got right back to work, trying to make up for their lost workouts.
We have to get double the work in, 'cause we don't have that much time until the challenge.
Cooking healthy meals together.
Beef! We got the veggies.
And dreaming of how to spend the money.
Photographer, videographer, flowers, food, tux.
And by day 49, Sara and Tre wanted to test if they could lift the full weight of the money.
Both of you combined, at the same time. Three, two, one, pull. Let's go! Hold. Hold. Let's go, guys. Yeah, put it down.
Come on.
Put it down. Put it down.
Oh, that's gonna suck.
It's heavy. Too heavy.
Dang. That's gonna be hard, man. My hands are on fire.
Bruh, this is gonna be really hard.
And realizing how hard this challenge would be was starting to make Sara feel overwhelmed.
A huge reason why I don't get out of my comfort zone, I don't put myself in situations to fail, is because I can't handle it, and this just gave me more of a reason to doubt myself.
I really want these two to succeed, so I thought now would be a great time to give them a little inspiration. Hey, Chandler, come on in!
Thank you, thank you! Thank you! Oh!
When we started this video, you were a 4XL and you were a 3XL.
Mm-hmm.
And this is a 3XL and that's a 2XL, so if they fit, that means you've so far lost an entire size.
All right.
That'd be crazy!
Tre, let's see it.
Whoa! Dude, that looks good! Wait, how does it feel?
It feel good! It's a little loose in certain places, but that's all right.
Oh, my gosh! Yes!
Whoa, it's also baggy on her! Wow, we are making progress!
And now imagine if you can get another two or three sizes down at your guys' wedding. Your family's reactions is gonna be crazy!
I know my mom is gonna be like, "Where'd my son go?"
I actually can't believe these clothes fit me.
I know, right?
The new clothes re-inspired the two, and even though the workouts were still grueling, they were starting to enjoy just being healthier.
Being healthy is a good feeling. Health is wealth.
Let's go!
I truly just never saw myself capable of losing weight or changing sizes, and it just shows that…
And it's paying off.
All right, it's the big day!
I had a dream that we lost a combined 25.
That would be crazy! That would be a lot.
What'd I say last time? Like, two or three?
Yeah.
We're gonna bump it up to five. Let's go see it. Let's jump into it.
Oh! I'm dying to see.
This is a big moment. When you're ready, step on.
Okay. Y'all wish me luck.
Turn around! You have collectively lost 76 pounds so far. You both have been grinding every day, and you're now halfway to the goal!
That is crazy!
Now, hopefully we can ride this high.
You can use this adrenaline to go deadlift some money!
Woo! Let's go!
Whatever you can deadlift and hold for one minute, I will put towards your wedding. There's $50,000 in front of you. How much do you two want us to load on that deadlift bar?
Go big or go home!
Run it. All of it.
All of it?
Run it!
Every single bag!
Are you sure?
All of it!
Help me load it up!
Every single dollar!
Yeah, dump it in there.
And make sure every dollar's in there!
I'mma make sure. I'll count this afterwards too.
I've never been this nervous in my life!
You and me both!
The second they lift it, I start the stopwatch. Are you ready?
Yep.
Three, two, one… Lift. Okay, it's off.
Let's go! Let's go!
Okay. Hold strong. Go to your happy place!
I'm struggling.
They are locked in. You guys just passed 48 seconds, which is when you dropped the bar last time you tried this.
Put it down. Put it down.
You got it. Do not drop it. How's it feelin'? Feel like you got it?
Love you. Can't talk to you right now.
Shh!
Okay, okay, 'cause you're halfway to the greatest wedding ever. Hold it, Sara.
Come on, halfway. You can do this. I see her hands starting to shake. Sara, you got it. 20 seconds! I'm not dropping. 20 seconds, Sara, you got it! Whose house is this?! Mine, mine! Let's go! I love you so much. You're doing so good, sweetheart.
Ten, nine, eight! Seven, six, five… Almost— Four! Hold it, Sara! Three! I'm holding! Two! One! Don't drop. You're done! You did it! Yeah! Woo! Let's go! Oh! Woo-hoo! Let's go! Let's freaking go! Ah!
All that money you see there, that is now in your wedding. Oh, my God. You guys passed the day 60 challenge with flying colors. Follow me to your next challenge.
What is this? You see a giant wall! Yes, I see this giant wall… Nolan, you ready?! I'm ready! Why is it so tall? The height is really freaky up close. What is this?! Three, two, one! What the— What?! What is this?
If in 30 days you guys can climb to the top of this, I'll pay for your honeymoon. What?! I'll give you whatever honeymoon you want, fully paid for. You're kidding! Climb to the top? You gotta climb to the top of that.
The thing is, there's a twist that you two don't know. Future me, tell the viewers. Well, me from the past, they'll be climbing that net off a helicopter 100 feet in the sky.
You don't know what it is, and you won't find out until day 90. No! All you gotta do is climb to the top of that! Oh! It's really scary when you get up close to it. I'm scared for the twist!
All right, let's see how you feel holding your body weight up there. I've never had to climb anything in my life.
Despite their nerves, Sara and Tre continued to train, doing their best to get more comfortable on the net.
Yes, Sara, good save! My arms are already tired… There is nothing I wanna do less in the entire world right now. That net right over there. Jimmy said there's a twist at the end of this. I don't like heights. It better not get any higher than that, Jimmy.
Over the next few days, Sara's fear of heights was making her very nervous.
Hook yourself in and grab it. All right, now use that foot to push up. Go one more! I can't. I can't. I can't right now. Yes, you— Bubby, I'm telling you. I cannot right now!
Where are you goin'? I'm going inside… What's goin' on? I'm scared about being the reason that we don't win. Mm-hmm…
You are 10 times stronger than you think you are, and you have proved that to yourself. The harder it is, the greater the reward after.
Climbing that net today just really rocked me, way more than I would've thought. It sucks…
And with Sara feeling down, I wanted to show her some real results to cheer her up.
We got some good news for you guys! So we have your blood work from Function. So the first number that we're gonna look at is your insulin. You have an 82% decrease. I love this! And you guys have lost the weight, and you've improved your overall lifespan.
So now we're gonna do Tre. Tre, your insulin levels dropped 83%. You're adding years onto your life. You made such a drastic change in such a short amount of time. It's cool to see how much your body is loving what we're doing. There's room for improvement, but where you guys started to where you're at now? I know… These numbers are astonishing.
It's incredible to see how much weight they've lost so far, how much stronger they're getting, but with Function Health, you can also track it. The tangible results gave Sara the motivation to keep going.
This specifically is the hardest thing I've physically ever done. Spread your hands out wider. Here? Yes, that'll give you more stability. I'm already tired. Okay. You got to this point faster today than you did yesterday.
I've just been emotionally just all over the place, and I just feel weak… Sara, you're freaking yourself out. But you're talking to me like it's easy.
I know you can do it. I got faith in you. And whenever you think you can't do somethin', that's when you start freakin' out.
I'm not gonna not try. I'm not gonna give up before it happens. But what if I try, and I can't? You got it, bubba. Okay?
I'm getting a sense the two of you are very afraid of heights. No… So I'm gonna tell you the day 90 twist early so you can mentally prepare. Okay… No!
On day 90, a helicopter's gonna fly in, cables will drop, lift this up, and you'll have to climb it 100 feet in the air. Huh?! But don't worry, you'll be harnessed in, so you— It's not like you'll get hurt if you fall. Okay! Mm-hmm? I thought I'd give you a little heads-up, so you're not too scared on day 90.
I don't have anything to say… I'm not the person that does those things. Yeah, me either! That's Tom Cruise! I'm not Tom Cruise!
This is making me spiral in a way that I did not anticipate. That red line, sometimes… it's tempting.
With Sara thinking about quitting, I knew I had to act fast.
How's it goin'? Hi! Challenge is coming up. How we feeling about it? I've shed some tears about it. You kept mentioning that you wanted to talk to your mom. I did wanna talk to my mom… Yeah? Yeah… So, what if on this phone right here, we have someone on mute right now? Oh!
So, we have this challenge coming up, which is why I called you, 'cause I'd love for you to help her out emotionally.
We should've called Mom sooner! This is good! I know! We should've! We should've, we should've!
And with Mom's motivation, Sara put her fears behind her and got to grinding. Take your time. Take your time. Yes! Sara, that was the best I've ever seen you do!
With your challenge coming up, I thought I'd bring in someone else who can help. Hi, guys! This is Alison, and she's filming a video where I chain a different stranger to her every five days.
where I chain a different stranger to her every five days.
Hi! Hey! What is that for?
They have to climb this net. Except the net's gonna be really high in the sky.
Oh? I'm not a heights person.
I'm telling you, you gotta pretend that you love heights.
Yeah. You just have to lock in on the goal, and that's just the helicopter. Get in it. Get in the helicopter. If you can do it here, you can do it up there.
Okay, Tre! Woo! We there! Good job, Sara!
Bring the helicopter right now. Let's go. Yeah, let's go! Let's go!
How's it going? Hey! Hey, everybody! Big day! Let's freaking go!
After 90 days, are you ready to see the results?
Yeah! Yes! Oh, my gosh!
This is what you weighed on day one. Step on your scales!
You are down 107 pounds!
Let's go!
Only 43 pounds left in the challenge.
Let's go! You guys are crushing it. Yeah, woo! Two eighty!
Not to be that guy, but we have business to attend to. Now I need to bring in the safety team. They're gonna harness you up, and then we're gonna head in the sky.
This is the scariest moment of my entire life!
There she is! Oh, my God! Yo! This is crazy! This is the craziest moment of my life!
Whoa, this is terrifying. I'm scared!
You got this! Yeah! Come on! You got this!
Sara and Tre will have to climb the net and get into the helicopter. Three, two, one! Start climbing!
Oh, my freaking goodness!
Yeah! Go! Let's go, Sara! Woo! This is so wild! What is going on?
I know Sara is terrified right now.
I know how strong you are and I know how you have conquered all of your fears. Anything you ever set your mind to, Sara, you accomplish.
I see what you do in here all the time. I know you can do it. I got faith in you. You got it, mama.
Bring the helicopter right now. Let's go. Let's go!
Sara's in! But Tre still has to do it. One down, one more to go!
He's not slowing down. One down. One down! All that training right here! Yeah!
You got it! You're almost done! Now, it's the hardest part. Pull! You got it! He's almost there! Yes! Yes, yes, yes! Yeah! Woo-hoo!
Oh, my God! He did it! He did it! Oh, my gosh! Let's go!
Congratulations, Tre, Sara, you completed the challenge! Come on down!
We are now sending them on their dream honeymoon to Hawaii, thanks to the Polynesian Cultural Center.
Let's go! Let's go! Yay! Let's go! Let's go! Let's go, Sara! You did it. You did it!
That's what this video's all about, becoming healthier, better versions of themselves, while winning tons of money and overcoming fears. I'm very proud of them.
That was— What do you think the next challenge is?
Oh, God. Hey, let's just celebrate for a second.
You don't want me to tell you how you could win a brand-new Ford F-150?
Oh! What?!
You wanna follow me over there? Yeah? Yeah?
You're lying! What is that?! You're lying. Tre! You're lying! Jimmy! You're lying!
What if I told you, Tre, this Ford F-150 could be yours?
Uh-huh. Okay?
If over the next 30 days, you and Sara pull it around the circle 150 times. Just five times a day.
Five times a day? Whoa!
All right, let's go for it. Start pulling! Let's go! Let's get it. Use those legs! You gotta get low! Pull, come on! Whoa!
It's gonna be leg day every day! Every day, Sara.
Yeah! Now, it goes without saying, but if you accidentally step on the red line while doing this, you're out, and no one's allowed to pull but these two.
All right. So, we haven't even finished a lap yet. How are you two feeling?
I'm exhausted! I'm tired!
Yeah. Keep going! That was one lap. How was it?
That sucked. One down. A hundred and forty-nine to go.
There you go! There you go! Let's cross it. Two laps down!
I'mma win this vehicle. I don't care what it take.
They committed themselves to pulling this truck around and around.
Look at her go, y'all. Look at her go!
I never would've thought I would be pulling a truck by myself. It's bringing out a strength in me I didn't even know I had.
Woo, woo, woo, woo!
Things are going so well, I think it's time to spice things up a bit.
What is that? What is in the box? Is there a phone?
Tre, answer it. It's Jimmy!
How's it going?
Good! Good!
How many laps have you done around the track?
Fifty-six. Fifty-six, so far.
And you have 20 days left.
We're knocking those out. We're knocking them out.
What if I gave you an offer where if you double it to 300 laps, I'll give Sara a brand-new car as well?
300 laps? I mean, yeah? Yeah—? Double it? Yeah, yeah. Yeah? Okay!
Good luck, and I'll see you guys in a couple weeks.
Gosh, wait, my heart is racing so fast. Oh! Oh! Shut up! Wait a minute! Oh, my God. Woo!
Yeah. Yeah? We need to do whatever it takes.
With their laps doubled, they wasted no time. Rain or shine.
Dang, it's hot, y'all.
One fifty! We're halfway there!
Good momentum. You got it. Finish to the end. You got it. You got it!
How's it going? Bro—whoa, look at you two! You guys are looking way leaner! I was stopping by, 'cause we have two cars on the line, and I didn't know if you needed some help pulling it.
We'll take some help. We'll always take some help.
The trick to starting off is staying still and just leaning your body weight forward.
Yeah— Oh!
Oh! Yeah, there we go. Oh, wow! Oh, they're going! Oh, yeah, they're going!
Is it bad my legs are already burning? No, 'cause mine are too. And I've been doing this for two and a half weeks.
Wait, you guys have to do 300 of these? Yes! I'm sorry! Get that momentum! You gotta dig deep!
You think you'd be able to do this weight loss video without Tre? No. Going through something so hard without him would be impossible.
There we go. There we go. Yo, Jimmy, are you tired? A little bit. Hey, you came up with this. I know, I apologize.
Now that it's just me and you. Yep. How's the weight loss challenge been? Man, it has been a journey. I'm not gonna lie. I've been loving it.
So, if you had to do this whole video without Sara, what would it be like? It'd be me struggling a little bit more, being bored. And being here has honestly made me love her even more.
That was just two laps. You're doing 15 of those a day? Yeah, unfortunately.
You're excited for day 120, possibly winning two cars? Yeah! I'm ready. The day 120 challenge will be super easy. Totally not gonna change everything.
Oh? Oh. Oh, wait, what does that mean? Just be excited for possibly winning two cars. Just ignore I was even here. Okay. Here we go again. My brain can't process that.
Even though they were nervous, they knew they had to keep pushing, but the heat was not helping.
Come on, baby! Come on! I know. I know it hurt. You got this. I can't do this alone.
This is the dumbest thing I've ever done in my frickin' life. It's almost over. You're right there. I've never experienced this level of pain before. I think I want to die.
Just know you're doing amazing. I can't do this anymore! Yes, you can. No, I can't. Yes, you can. Oh, my God.
But if Sara wants to walk away with these cars, she has to lock in.
We got this, bubba. We got this! Enjoy the Bronco! Look at it. Tell it you love her. I love you. Get me hype, now! Come on. Go! Let's go. Go!
They were quickly closing in on their final laps, and I wasn't going to miss that.
How's it going? Oh, mid-workout! You guys do realize it's day 120 and you still have two laps left. You wanna get cranking? Let's do it! Let's go! Let's get to the finish line! Sara, you got this!
All right. They are now going into their final lap! Let's go! And then both these cars are theirs!
There we go! Oh, we're moving now. Yeah, there we go. I'm having to jog to keep up! Oh, they're running! They want it! Let's go! You're almost there! Keep going! Keep pulling. Keep pulling! Let's go!
This is your brand-new car! Yeah! Let's go! Let's go! Yes, sir! Oh, my gosh! Yes, sir! Let's go! Let's go! Oh, my gosh, finally!
Wait, how about we celebrate by you guys getting in your cars? I literally have not driven in months. Okay, I'm scared. Me, too! Yeah! Oh, man, this is great!
All right now, we took her for a spin. Let's get down to business. All right. Both of you, please step up. Let's give the weights a second to recalibrate.
130 pounds down. They have 20 more pounds until this money is theirs. Oh, my gosh!
Now you know your new weights, let me reveal the final challenge. Come with me. To your left is five briefcases. Oh, my gosh. This is a little spooky!
Before I reveal it, bring in the $50,000. $50,000? What? There we go. That's a lot of cash! Each of you have an opportunity to win $25,000. Okay. Okay.
And here's how this is gonna work. I'm gonna open up briefcase number one. Uh-huh? Uh-huh. It will have a fitness-related challenge in it. If you complete that 30 days from now—uh-huh—you'll get $25,000. Okay. Okay! If you don't, you get nothing.
But you don't have to take it. I will throw it away, and I'll open up briefcase number two, but you won't know what's in it. Okay. Oh, my gosh.
So, with each briefcase, you're gonna have to decide, do you think you could do it, or do I risk it, and maybe there's an easier challenge down the line? Oh, my gosh.
For example. Oh, gosh. Briefcase number one is ten pull-ups. Hard pass. Yeah? Bye-bye! Cue the explosion.
Briefcase number two. One-minute bar hang. I know that in 30 days, I can do a minute. I'm taking it. Whoa! This is your $25,000 challenge. Oh, that just got real. Okay.
The next challenge, 36-inch box jump. Let's pass. Yeah. Let's see if he ends up regretting that.
Eight-minute mile. An eight-minute mile is hard, bro. It's really hard. So you're thinking of risking it for the final box? I'll risk it for the biscuit, man. I'll risk it for the biscuit, man. Blow it up! All right!
Oh, my God. I'm gonna pee my pants! I'm nervous. I don't even need to open it. This is your fate. Guys, say a prayer.
Thirty pushups. Let's go! You can do it! Yes! Let's go? Yes! Let's go! Yay! Let's go! You chose wisely, baby! Yay! Let's go!
Wait! Wait, wait, wait. All right, yeah! That's totally everything. There's nothing missing from the equation. What does that mean? No, wait, I...
Well, I might have built a second gym where Tre is gonna be training the next 30 days independent of you.
I had a—Jimmy, I had a feeling. I... Oh, no!
Oh, no! I'm gonna cry!
You gotta be strong, okay?
All I've been saying this whole time is that I couldn't do it without you!
Yes, you can. Thirty days, okay? You got this.
You got this. You got it. You got it. Mwah!
There you go, and then step over. Whoa! All right, Darius, cover it back up. I gotcha!
Sara! Let's go, Tre. Let's head on our journey. I love you. Goodbye, Sara! I love you! Bye!
Welcome, Tre, to your brand-new home! You have a full-fledged basketball court.
Whoa!
You have all the workout equipment you could ever want in life.
What in the world?!
And... Uh-huh? You have a bedroom.
Oh, dang! Wait, whoa!
Exactly, with your own bathroom.
Whoa, what is this?!
I think he's a little too happy. He needs to calm it down a little bit.
I'm not doing good. This is 100% gonna be the hardest thing I've ever done. I have never gone more than 16 hours without talking to him. So, these next 28 days that I got left is gonna be one of the hardest things I have ever had to do.
And that was the whole point. Because up until this moment, they've had each other to lean on for motivation, and I wanted to see if they could crush this next challenge as individuals.
I'm so sad! I miss him. I want him here. But today, I have a pretty early workout with Bree.
How we feeling, dawg?
I'm feeling great.
Ready to have a day? Let's play pig to warm up.
Let's get outside. One. I'm so excited to get to work out with you today!
Yeah, nice, Tre. Yeah, girl! Look at you go!
Even though their gyms were so close, they had no way of making contact with each other, so it only left them with one option.
I'm sitting here waiting for Sara to come outside. This is my view. Nope.
And Sara kept trying to catch a glimpse of Tre.
I could see the garage door. I kept looking through my glasses to see if he would open it.
There is nothing else to do but walk. I have no one to talk to, so I'm just gonna be in here working out.
And it seemed like every time they got close to seeing each other...
Wait, hold on.
Their timing was just slightly off.
Hello?!
So the waiting game continued.
I'm sitting here staring at the garage door all day, just waiting to see if he'll open it so I can say hi.
Yes! Yeah, yay! Finally!
What are you doing?
Do you like your home?
I can't hear you!
I don't know what you just said. Ugh! What are you doing?
I can't hear you. Dang, bruh. I really cannot hear her.
Ugh, this is so sad. I can see him, but I can't hear him!
Complete isolation from just her, not knowing how she's doing. This sucks.
Sara and Tre are finding out how much 250K is really worth.
I wanna go home. I think my motivation has plummeted the past two days. So bored.
Just emotionally, I miss Tre a lot.
I miss Sara. Time's just moving really slow. I need this over, man!
I just want Tre back. I miss him.
I miss her.
Seeing them in such a funk, I figured I should remind them why they're here in the first place.
Hey! Okay! Hey! Aw! I'm so happy for you guys!
This is gonna be you at the end of the video.
It is crazy. In just a few weeks, that will be us.
After being reminded what they were working towards, they had a renewed sense of determination.
$25,000 is a lot of money, and I wanna win that.
Here we go, Sara. You can do this! Lock in.
Thirty pushups in a row to get done. We gonna crush it all day, every day.
One more, one more, one more. There you go!
I gotta get outta here. I'll go through a week of suffering to get out of here.
Let's go! That's how we're doing it! Go, go, go, go, go, go, go! Explode up! Explode up! Woo! Sweating, baby.
Come on, Sara. Push. Yeah. Good job, Sara. One more, one more. One more, one more. Come on. Come on! Woo!
Twenty seconds. Come on, Tre.
I wanna win our challenge, and I wanna finish this together, and then go get married.
But they still had more planning to do, and with them being apart, we got to help them cover some of the more expensive parts of any wedding.
Stop! Yeah! I'm so excited right now!
Wait, can I pick anything?
Anything you say.
Oh!
When the friends are like, "What'd he get you?" Uh-huh. You want that thing sparkling.
I do. Oh, this is so nice. This is the one that kinda caught my eye. I'm not gonna lie. I think that's the winner.
Final choice?
Yeah! My gut is telling me this one. It's definitely saying this one! Oh, I'm so excited.
We transformed the weight loss set.
Oh, my gosh!
With such a massive decision, we can't have you make this alone.
Oh! Oh!
We weren't gonna let you pick your wedding dress without the help of Mom!
Oh, my God! This is not real. Gosh. You don't know how much I've missed this girl.
Aw, that's so cute.
She's literally my best friend.
Now I'm gonna go with Tre to pick out his tux. Before we start choosing, you can't do this on your own! We're not gonna do this without your father!
You look good!
Eighty pounds!
Yeah, that's a brand-new life.
It is! I like this one.
Yeah, I would start with this one.
Oh! Sparkly!
You... Oh, my God! Look beautiful!
Oh, wow! Oh, that's the one. We got a winner. Let's go! Oh, my God. Woo!
You look so pretty, honey.
With the wedding on their minds, I think they really wanted that extra 50K. So for the next 10 days, they worked out harder than they had for the entire video.
They worked out harder than they had for the entire video.
It's day 150! You know what that means.
Sounds like trouble.
Hold on! Gimme a hug! How you doin'?
I'm doin' good!
How's it going, man?
The only thing separating you and your soon-to-be wife is this red line. Until now!
I'm so excited!
Freedom, Tre. Freedom.
Okay. You're free.
Boom! Hello, world! Sara! I'm on the way, baby!
Sara, I'm returning your fiancé.
Tre, come on over!
Yeah! Whoa!
Yes, baby!
This is so adorable!
Okay, okay, okay. I just have one question.
What's up?
Who's going first?
I'mma go first.
Thirty pushups. Twenty-five grand.
All right, y'all ready for this?
Twenty-five thousand dollars.
You got this! Let's go! Tre!
Okay. Yep! Uh-huh.
Let's go, Tre! Lock in, come on! Come on, Tre! Yeah! One more! Come on! Come on! Woo!
Twenty-five thousand dollars! Here you go!
Woo!
Think you're ready?
I'm ready.
One minute dead hang? Twenty-five grand. Here we go! No distractions.
Let's go, Sara!
And it's off. All right, two seconds. Three seconds.
She's making it look easy! Are you even struggling?
I feel so nervous.
Lock in, Sara. Lock in. You got it, Sara!
The arms are starting to shake a little bit.
Come on, Sara.
When she first came, she couldn't do more than one second.
I literally can't hang at all. I can't.
Finally feel just so confident. I know I can do it.
You got that, Sara. Three, two, one!
Woo! Woo!
Twenty-five thousand dollars!
Let's go throw the money in the pile!
Oh, Tre, welcome back!
What's up?
Welcome back home!
How's it feel?
It feel— What is that?
Oh, that's you! I replaced you with the pillow.
Brother, I thank you for holding it down. I appreciate you.
After 150 days, let's find out how much weight they have lost. Cue it!
You have lost 144 pounds.
Okay!
Six pounds away from completing the challenge! If I come back in 15 days, you're gonna lose the six pounds and we're done?
Hundred percent.
Deal!
Might be less!
Yeah, let's go. One, two, three! Two weeks!
Fifty thousand dollars.
I know! I know. I don't even feel like I'm living my real life right now.
Thank you for holding the fort down, man.
They were both in terrible health. Some of the worst I've seen, actually. He had the testosterone of a 90-year-old guy.
Wow.
Probably couldn't have a baby, and now it's doubled. And Sara, same thing. Her celiac numbers came back to normal. Her insulin came down from very high to normal. What's also important, she had something called PCOS, which causes infertility, so she wouldn't be able to have a baby.
Wow.
Everything normalized with her. Now, they have tons of energy, they feel like doing life, they're excited about everything.
Yes!
And just such a gift you gave them.
Just like Sara and Tre were able to see all their biomarkers, sometimes up to eight to ten times more than your doctor might check. You can do the same thing with Function Health. Function Health starts at just $1 a day, $365 a year. Scan this QR code or click the link in the description and start tracking your health right now.
Sara and Tre were closing in on their final goal.
Six pounds, let's go!
Six pounds! Gonna get you guys outta here. I don't even have any form cues for you anymore, I'm just hanging out! 'Cause you guys are so good!
We're gonna lock in, lose these last six pounds, then we get married.
It's great, but it's kinda sad at the same time. It's very bittersweet feeling. It feels like a rebirth almost.
I don't even know what life is like outside anymore. This is all I know, I've been here most of the year. The only thing I know is now, work out, wake up, work out, wake up, work out. As excited as I am to go home, I'mma miss being here.
I was asking Sara, I was like, "What's the most money you've ever had in your bank account?" What did you say?
Eight thousand.
You guys are buying lunch when we get out of here.
With just one day until their final weigh-in, Tre and Sara tackled one last workout.
Oh, dang, girl, go! Go down!
Do you guys think you're gonna hit it?
We better.
I hope you're close!
We have officially finished our last workout.
Woo!
I have never felt so many emotions at the same time. I'm sad, I'm happy, I'm excited.
Do you guys remember these? This one's a letter to me now from five months ago.
"My mental health is severely impacted by my current lifestyle, and I hate myself most of the time."
Dang.
"My reason for not prioritizing my health in the past comes from self-doubt. I hope by showing up for myself, that that changes."
"As Tre and I grow together, I hope to expand a more exciting side to our relationship, and I want us to live strong, long, and healthy lives."
"Hey, big dawg. I hope you feel a lot better about yourself. It's been a long time."
"Honestly, I don't know when the last time I looked at myself in the mirror and didn't feel disgust."
"So I know you feel good. I'm proud of you. Be happy."
"Life has a way of working out weirdly. Like, you went on MrBeast… what?!"
"It's so insane sitting here writing this to you. I'm proud of you. Keep it up."
Oh, I love you guys! This has been the hardest thing—I don't want to speak for you—but I think we've ever done.
This is.
This could be Sara and Tre's final weigh-in. And if they've lost 150 pounds, it will finally be time for them to get married.
Knock, knock. Oh, you both look so good.
Yeah!
Yo!
You two ready to get married?
I am. I'm ready!
Oh, we're so ready.
All right! Let's get to the weigh-in. 163 days ago, what did you weigh?
345 pounds.
And 163 days ago, how much did you weigh?
249 pounds.
You ready to see what it is now?
I am.
I am… Yeah! Hopefully it's worth the wait. Yeah, there we go. Yes! Woo! Come on!
I love you. I love you. All right. Turn around.
You have lost 160 pounds! Yeah! Yay! What the hell?! Let's go, baby! They did it! You did it!
You can't carry all this money to your wedding, so I'm gonna deposit it into your Step account. You guys won $250,000 plus $100,000 from two challenges, so I'm gonna deposit $175,000 into your Step account and $175,000 into your Step account as well.
This is life-changing amount of money! What?!
That is real money in your Step Bank account right now. Step is my brand new banking app that, in my opinion, it's the most rewarding way to set yourself up for your financial future.
Whoa!
Not only does it pay you to build credit, but it also helps you invest your money, manage your money. If any of that interests you, make sure you scan this QR code or sign up with the link in the description. If you use code BEAST150, I will give you $5 for free after you make your first purchase with your Step card. More importantly, let's go to the wedding.
This line used to represent losing. Yeah. Now… it represents winning.
That's it! Oh, God. Three, two, one! Two, one! One! Step on it!
They did it! Tre— Oh, my God! Woo!
This is Tre's mom's first time seeing him since before the challenge. Look how happy she is.
I missed you so much! I missed you too.
Sara, the love we have shared over the past six years has been the best experience of my life. This journey together has shown me so much, and we both have grown from this experience. And I stand here today to vow to you that even on those bad days, I will always be there to support and love you. I swear to you, I will never stop loving you.
Tre, over the last 163 days, I have watched you transform into a new man. You have committed to every part of this process. You've given every workout your all, unknowingly making me want to work harder. You've been my rock ahead of every challenge and kept me grounded when I was at risk of fleeing. I promise to always make it known you're who I'm choosing to be by mine. This is just the beginning. I'll love you forever and then some.
Tre, you may kiss your bride.
Woo! Woo! Woo!
Woo! Whoa! Oh, my gosh!
I don't think we're gonna get a better ending than that. I hope you guys enjoyed.
