This year he spent significantly less than that (12, maybe), and he made it to the money second in chips.
 
Keep in mind that there's a method to his madness too: what he's doing is dumping a huge number of chips onto his table, which he intends to win back.
 
The quantity of chips on your table puts a practical limit on the number of times you can double through - if people have only made a few rebuys and there's only, say, $20K total chips on your table, then you can't expect to build a stack much bigger than say $15K.  Absolute best outcome is you knock everyone on your table out and take the whole $20K.  Whereas if you've put in a ton of rebuys yourself, suddenly there might be $50K getting about on your table, and you've got a much better chance of building a dominating stack.
 
One year in particular Negranu used this strategy and came in third - making a sizeable profit on the tournament, even after making about $30,000 in rebuys.  Other years he's bombed on the first day though.  Seems this year he's found the happy medium.
