Dan Bilzerian News 2016: Instagram Celeb Reportedly In Rough Shape Following Bike Journey [VIDEO]
Dan Bilzerian reportedly just did the unthinkable and scored himself a good haul of cash.
The Instagram celebrity, who's caused plenty of controversy on the Internet, went on a bet that he couldn't ride his bike from Las Vegas to Los Angeles within a couple days. And surprisingly enough, the man apparently won that bet.
According to Friday's report from New York Post, Bilzerian won $600,000 from Bill Perkins who mentioned how disappointed he is for losing although there's a silver lining.
"I don't like it momentarily," he said. "But I do like the strong finish."
And even though Bilzerian might be a little bit richer, he's going to need some time to recover from the painful journey. Based on what Perkins said about him, the Instagram celeb is in pretty rough shape.
"He looks like the Grinch- his skin is green," Perkins said. "He's looking like death right now. He's in bed with chafed buttocks, a fever, hot and cold [flashes], chills, wobbly legs. His immune system is down, and every virus you can have is rising. I was hoping his muscles would seize up [midride], but they didn't."
Perkins also revealed that Bilzerian had a van in front of him for part of his ride that had its back doors open to lower the resistance.
"There's no doubt he had a mechanical advantage, and I didn't know he would be so close to the van," he said. "But you need to look at the totality and spirit of the bet. His drafting might have saved him 5,000 calories, but he had 14 hours in which to finish the bet. I did a back-of-the-envelope calculation and realized that he would have won even without the drafting."
