I'm selling my body.
On September 19th, I'm competing in my first HYROX race in Turkey.
You can advertise your startup on 10 of my muscles:
- Your website is listed on https://t.co/49RnsFBVzP
- Your logo will be tattooed on my body on race day
- I'll share it on my YouTube and X accounts
Bidding starts at $1,000.
Each takeover doubles the price: $1,000 → $2,000 → $4,000.
If outbid, you’re refunded minus the Stripe fee.
Bidding closes on Thursday the 10th at midnight UTC (in 2 days), so I have enough time to print the winning tattoos.

$112,000.
That's how much I'm getting paid to race at HYROX in İzmir, Turkey, on September 19th.
That's 3x what the 2026 world champion made. Honestly, I'm feeling the pressure. The numbers so far:
🌎 60,207 people from 184 countries visited https://t.co/49RnsFBVzP
My chest got 62,343 clicks, 3x as many as my biceps
🍑 My butt sold for $20,000
A huge thanks to my sponsors and the people who shared this little experiment. You've given me a story I'll tell my kids, and I'm grateful for it ❤️

I'm selling my butt 🍑
Bidding starts at $10,000.
Then +$5,000 per takeover.
It's a premium spot ☺️ so it's more expensive than the tattoos.
