MrBeast’s Latest Video Made Him Swallow a Staggering $2,830,000 Loss
One of the most well-known YouTubers in the world is Jimmy Donaldson, best known by his stage name MrBeast. His YouTube channel is the second most subscribed with over 160 million users. MrBeast, though, is more than just a popular YouTuber. He is also dedicated to helping others and is a philanthropist.
MrBeast gave $3 million to Ukrainian refugees in 2022. Through his charitable organization, Beast Philanthropy, he further fed approximately 300,000 individuals. MrBeast’s generosity goes beyond financial contributions. He also encourages individuals to help others by using his platform.
However, it appears even being a philanthropist and having the second-highest number of subscribers on YouTube didn’t help this time. In his most recent high-budget video, MrBeast made a startling loss of $2,830,000.
MrBeasts’ most recent video was a flop
Jimmy Donaldson, better known on YouTube as MrBeast, has admitted that his most recent video was a financial failure. MrBeast recently began providing financial information to his Twitter followers, and through doing so, he exposed the huge loss he made on his most recent project.
Budgeted at $3 million, the video was named Train Vs Giant Pit. Several explosive experiments are shown in the video, such as detonating 100,000 fireworks inside a house and smashing a train head-on into a huge hole. Over 85 million people have watched the video since it was posted six days ago. The first week’s ad revenue was barely $167,000, though. Accordingly, MrBeast suffered a loss of around $2.8 million on the video.
Nobody would have expected this figure. Who would have imagined the second-most subscribed YouTuber could experience such a significant financial loss?
MrBeast’s Youtube journey
One of the most well-known YouTube stars in the world is Jimmy Donaldson, best known by his stage name MrBeast. He is renowned for his absurd challenges and stunts, many of which involve huge financial gifts.
When MrBeast was barely 13 years old, he started his YouTube career. He first began by posting videos of himself playing video games and ones in which he estimated the wealth of other YouTubers, but he soon recognized that this wasn’t the kind of content that would set him apart.
MrBeast spent 44 hours creating the Counting to 100,000 video that was uploaded in 2017. The video’s success helped MrBeast build a sizable fan base. MrBeast has since released several other well-liked videos, such as I Spent 50 Hours in Solitary Confinement, I Gave $100,000 to Random People, and I Spent 24 Hours in a Desert.
Although MrBeast frequently experiences high production costs for his videos, his sizable fan base makes it affordable for him to do so. On MrBeast, his primary channel, he currently has over 160 million subscribers.
MrBeast has a number of channels in addition to his primary channel, including MrBeast 2, MrBeast Gaming, and Beast Reacts. Additionally, he supports numerous charities through his Beast Philanthropy charity channel.
