To honour the release of Uncharted 3: Drake’s Deception, Kevin Butler is offering $10,000 to whoever has the greatest physical endurance and free time.

To win, all you need to do is sit in front of your webcam, holding your arm out, for longer than anybody else. No, really, but the current champion has over two hours under his belt. The promo also offers $500 daily prizes.

Watch Butler’s fierce introduction and try your luck at the promotion’s website – but be advised, only US residents are eligible, and you may want to glance over the rules and FAQ – no fake hands are eligible.

Solve a couple of puzzles and you and a friend could be off to visit Istanbul, the modern-day city once known as Constantinople and the setting for Assassin’s Creed: Revelations.
