A job where you don't have to do anything

One of the easiest jobs in the worldis 38-year-old Japanese Shoji Morimoto. Previously, he worked in an ordinary company, where he was often reproached for doing nothing.

A job to sleep in

Scientists regularly conduct research tolearn how sleep affects the human body. For example, relatively recently it was found that frequent daytime sleep can be a sign of dangerous diseases.

To conduct experiments on sleep, scientiststhey are looking for volunteers - they are paid money for participation. Men and women are usually only required to sleep. All other matters, including monitoring their health indicators, the researchers do themselves. In some cases, volunteers need to do the opposite, refrain from sleep - this is how scientists investigate the impact of lack of sleep on health.

Participants in some experiments get paid for sleeping

In 2019 NASA aerospace agencyoffered volunteers $19,000 to do nothing in bed for about two months. This is quite a reasonable amount for such an ordeal - a long absence of movement can seem like torture to any person.

How much do wrestlers get for work

Probably no one needs to explain that inwrestling fights are not real - this is a premeditated performance. But do not think that the work of wrestlers is very easy. For many months they need to watch their bodies and learn acrobatic tricks. During battles, there is always a chance of serious injuries - not everyone will dare to jump on a person from the height of a stepladder.

No matter what they say, wrestling is a very dangerous occupation.

With all this, some wrestlers gethuge salaries for doing next to nothing. As of 2020, wrestler Mark Calway or "The Undertaker" was earning $2.5 million annually. At the same time, he entered the ring a couple of times a year - the rest of the time he could sit at home. His only task was to maintain good physical shape.
