The crypto world is no stranger to bizarre stories, but the latest drama surrounding YouTuber "Lord Miles" has taken surreal to new heights. The self-proclaimed adventurer, known for extreme exploits like surviving eight months in a Taliban-run Afghan prison, embarked on a 40-day fasting challenge in one of the world's hottest deserts—sponsored by gambling platform Duel.

Polymarket bettors wagered heavily on the outcome, with trading volume surging to $8.8 million. Initial skepticism gave way to Optimism as his odds of completion jumped from 25% to 75% after daily updates. The market imploded when Duel's founder Monarch claimed Lord Miles had died during the fast, posting a eulogy on X that sent shockwaves through the prediction market.
