00:02The most expensive video produced by Mr. Beast.
00:06It was announced in late 2021 that Donaldson's superhuman ability to conquer YouTube made
00:11headlines throughout the world after spending approximately $4 million recreating the Netflix
00:17series Squid Game, without the excessive violence, and awarding the winner $456,000
00:23through a grueling musical chairs competition.
00:26Since the video was uploaded, more than 225 million people have viewed it.
00:31Mr. Beast's Video Expenditures
00:33As Donaldson's subscriber base has grown rapidly, so has his video budget.
00:38Most of today's models cost upwards of $1 million to produce, making only a fraction
00:43of them worthwhile.
00:44A significant portion of Donaldson's main channel is subsidized by his gaming and reacts
00:49channels, which feature the lads and are produced at a low cost.
00:52Donaldson states, I could do videos for less money.
00:55However, I do not feel like doing so.
00:58I will go even further if I am able to do so.
01:01This is his first giveaway.
01:03Donaldson's first brand agreement occurred shortly after he reached 750,000 subscribers
01:09and moved into a modest house with his best friend, Chris Tyson.
01:13Instead of spending the money on frivolous items, he gave a $10,000 check to a homeless individual
01:20in a YouTube video.
01:21His mother was unaware that he was making YouTube videos.
01:25Sue was shocked to discover from a yearbook entry that he had been producing videos for
01:30YouTube.
01:30I was a typical parent, they say, and she confirms this.
01:35She was quite concerned about the world.
01:37However, her concerns subsided after Donaldson assured her that he was making a profit from
01:43his channel.
01:43Nevertheless, she insisted that Jimmy continue his education beyond high school.
01:49Despite agreeing to attend community college, Donaldson claims he never attended a single
01:55class and left in the middle of the semester.
01:57Childhood memories of Mr. Beast.
01:59According to Donaldson, he does not have a clear memory of his early years.
02:04He attributes much of his success to his natural business sense.
02:08He considers himself to be a highly futuristic individual.
02:12It is time to let the past go.
02:14The event has already taken place.
02:17To put it another way, I am out to rule the future.
02:20Although his mother keeps every piece of memorabilia from his old videos in a large warehouse,
02:26he has never visited it.
02:28Models he looks up to.
02:30In Donaldson's otherwise unremarkable office and living area, there are paintings of Steve
02:35Jobs and Elon Musk, including one of Musk dressed as Napoleon Bonaparte.
02:39In regards to Musk, Donaldson states, I do not endorse or look up to anything he does
02:44or the way he deals with people.
02:46However, when it comes to growing wealth and business, there are far more than just
02:50far worse individuals to admire.
02:52Recently, Elon Musk joked that he would give Twitter to Mr. Beast when he dies.
02:56In order to focus on YouTube, Mr. Beast didn't finish college.
03:01According to reports, Mr. Beast began college in late 2016, but the details of his studies
03:07are not yet known.
03:08It is reported that the YouTuber dropped out of college after only two weeks, telling his
03:13mother, I would rather be poor than do anything other than YouTube.
03:16When he was 18 years old, his mother, who, loved me and simply wanted me to succeed, forced
03:22him to leave North Carolina.
03:23The New York Times published an article about how Mr. Beast treats her employees in 2021.
03:30Ex-employees have made allegations of mental harassment and workplace abuse.
03:36People with disabilities have been accused of verbal abuse and slurs that are offensive to
03:41them.
03:42According to the allegations, he would also not give credit to the people who worked on
03:47his videos.
03:48However, his fans would also stand up for him.
03:51Due to the fact that he is so famous, these allegations might not get anywhere, considering
03:57how big he is.
03:58Mr. Beast is an award-winning artist.
04:01He has been recognized for the quality of his videos and the impact he has had on the YouTube
04:06community.
04:07He has received several awards, including the 2019 Creator of the Year Award at the
04:12Streamy Awards.
04:14Additionally, he won awards for Best Live Special, Social Good Creator, and Social Good, Nonprofit.
04:20The accolades that have been bestowed upon this talented creator are well-deserved.
04:25Under the pseudonym, Mr. The Youngster gained online notoriety for his films.
04:30For the first few years of his career, Donaldson attempted to game the YouTube algorithm by
04:35making videos that he thought would appeal to a broad audience.
04:39I really appreciate you watching.
