MrBeast broke the internet with another mind-blowing challenge video. The YouTube star is famous for spending a lot of money on his video, but he had to spend his weight this time.

The 24-year-old recently uploaded a video on his channel titled “I Didn’t Eat Food For 30 Days.” As the title explains the video’s content, MrBeast challenged himself to not eat anything for 30 days. Undoubtedly, it was a massive risk that Jimmy Donaldson took for this challenge.

However, he was under the supervision of doctors throughout the challenge. He didn’t face many issues other than losing a lot of weight. Further, he lost his hair, as there was a condition to shave his head for not completing the challenge. MrBeast could only do this challenge for two weeks.

The American YouTuber weighed 220 pounds at the start of the video. But just a day without food, he lost a pound. As the challenge continued, Jimmy started to shed around 1.4 to 2.1 pounds every day.

After a week of fasting, the American Youtuber lost 11.8 pounds. As a reward for finishing one week, MrBeast celebrated by eating ice cubes as he was allowed to have water. But MrBeast lost even more weight as he weighed 204.3 pounds on day 12.

However, this continuous loss took a toll on Jimmy’s energy level. He was shooting the famous Willy Wonka Chocolate Factory video and another video about a man spending 100 days in a circle. But because of the massive dip in weight and energy level, Donaldson was so tired that he nearly scraped the Chocolate Factory video.

MrBeast rejected all food temptations but had to bend his knees to one of the best chefs, Gordon Ramsey, whom he met for a collaboration. The British chef made a delicious burger for MrBeast, with which he ended the challenge after 14 days. After two weeks of continuous fasting, Jimmy weighed 202.5 pounds, having shed 17.5 pounds.
