With Prime Video’s ‘Beast Games‘ breaking all bounds of the reality competition genre by having a thousand contestants vie for $5 million, we get an original that is simply gripping. After all, it incorporates a set of completely unique challenges over ten episodes that test not only the cast’s mental as well as physical strength but also their honesty, integrity, and wit. Amongst those to thus partake in season 1 of this production was Gage Gallagher as Player #974, whose fair strategies and uncompromising trust in his luck took him right to the end.
Gage Gallagher Never Wavered From His Gut Feelings
From the moment Gage first came across our screens, it was evident he was ambitious, competitive, and determined to walk away with the prize pot, but he never let it influence who he is. While many did fall into the traps of money MrBeast put forth at every turn, he managed to keep his head on straight and focus on the life-changing end prize while remaining honest. The prime example of this was in episode 3’s Cube Challenge, wherein teams of three were placed in confinement cubes and given 5 hours to decide which one member would be booted.
This round was obviously designed to test the players’ strategies as well as team spirit, only for Gage to actually pass with flying colors as he let a coin toss decide his fate – he got lucky. The tide did turn for him in the second last challenge – the voting round among the top 10 – as he manipulated and bribed his way to be the fifth (out of six) finalist selected, yet he didn’t regret it one bit. That’s because he knew he played the game as well as he could, yet he still decided to test his luck a bit further with another coin toss to see if he could double the prize pot to $10 million.
Gage Gallagher Prefers to Lead a Quiet Life
Despite the fact Gage willingly participated in ‘Beast Games’ in the hopes of bagging a sum he knew could turn his world upside down for the better, he prefers to keep away from the limelight. This is evident through his social media platforms, especially since he isn’t active and has chosen to share the barest details about who he really is, his background, his passions, as well as his personal experiences. So, all we know for certain is that this San Clemente, California, native is a family-oriented man whose love for the outdoors and travel take up most of his time whenever he is not working.
Gage is reportedly an Ambulance Emergency Medical Technician (EMT) as of writing, yet there was once a time when he used to serve as a tennis instructor at the Professional Tennis Registry (PTR). His work is undeniably intense, stressful, and time-consuming, but it appears as if he truly loves what he does because it gives him the opportunity to make a positive difference in someone else’s life. Nevertheless, the San Clemente resident seemingly also understands that if he doesn’t make time for his other passions, he will get burned out, which is why he doesn’t hesitate to travel. Whether it be Costa Rica, Hawaii, Canada, San Francisco, or different national parks across the nation, the hobbyist hiker plus rock climber has been everywhere in the past few years.
