"Slept 30 Minutes a Day for 17 Years" Livestreamed... A Twist Ending

There is a Japanese YouTuber who has claimed to sleep only 30 minutes a day for a whopping 17 years, but things got awkward after he tried to prove it through a live broadcast, didn't they?

Daisuke Hori, a well-known "short sleeper" in Japan, livestreamed his daily routine of sleeping only 30 minutes a day for a week.

Hori is a figure who has even established a related association, claiming he can function on just 30 to 45 minutes of sleep a day.

This time, he decided to make his 24 hours public to prove it himself.
 
However, on the second day of the broadcast, while receiving a scalp massage, he closed his eyes and remained almost motionless for about 27 minutes, and even appeared to be snoring.

After that, there were scenes where his face and voice were out of view for about an hour, or he disappeared off-screen only to reappear after an alarm went off.

Eventually, on the fifth day of the broadcast, he announced that he would take a nap, stating, "I made a slightly excessive sleep schedule."

To make matters worse, a broadcasting accident occurred, further escalating the controversy.

During the transmission of a bathing scene, parts of his body were exposed on screen, leading to the suspension of the broadcast.

Netizens reacted with comments such as, "Isn't his concentration dropping due to sleep deprivation?" and "Instead of proving 30 minutes of sleep, he just left people with more doubts."
