Do you love sleeping? Then here is some great news for you—you could become a ‘lakhpati’ (earn lakhs of rupees) just by sleeping. A competition for this is set to launch soon, offering a prize of ₹13 lakh to the winner. Hard to believe, isn’t it? But it is true.
A mattress company named Koala Japan has announced this competition. It will be held in Tokyo on October 5th, and the winner will receive a prize of 2.22 million Yen, or approximately ₹13.76 lakh. However, simply lying in bed with your eyes closed won’t be enough to win; contestants must achieve the best quality of sleep within 90 minutes while sleeping on a Koala mattress. Participants will also be required to wear a special sleep-monitoring device. Sleep will be evaluated under the direct supervision of doctors. The final assessment will consider various aspects such as sleep depth, quality, the time taken to fall asleep, and sleep stability. Disturbances will be introduced to interrupt the participants’ sleep while they are asleep.
Strict rules are in place to ensure participants do not resort to any unfair means. Staying awake all night prior to the competition or using sleeping pills or other medications is strictly prohibited.
Getting a good night’s sleep has become a major challenge in today’s hectic lifestyle. Koala Japan has taken this innovative initiative to raise awareness about the importance of sleep in human life.
