Concurs inedit în Japonia: cine doarme cel mai bine câștigă 14.000 de dolari

On October 5, Japan hosted a unique sleep competition called "Matt Race" in Tokyo, where participants aimed to fall asleep within 90 minutes. Equipped with sensors to measure sleep quality, they competed for a prize of over 2 million yen, approximately $14,000. The event highlights Japan's struggle with sleep deprivation, as the average sleep duration is less than in other OECD countries. The winner expressed plans to use the prize money for moving into her own apartment. Organizers hope such events will raise awareness about the importance of sleep.
