To give a brief, MrBeast has been seen focusing on his thumbnails largely. In an H3 podcast with Ethan and Hila Klein, MrBeast admitted to being the “thumbnail man.” Moreover, he said that since he makes “crazy videos,” he tries to put in as much effort as possible to further optimize. And evidently, a living example seems to be in front of the whole community.

The video titled “I Hunted 100 People!” is the one that was released a day before the inauguration of the first brick-and-mortar MrBeast Burger restaurant in the American Dream Mall. In the same mall, MrBeast had invited 100 of his subscribers. Moreover, each one of them was given $10,000 and Jimmy had to hunt them down in 10 hours. The best part was that the contestants had the whole mall to hide.

However, the $10,000 wasn’t going to come easy, as Jimmy was escalating the level of the challenge by the hour. Inviting his friends and distributing them into areas managed to unveil some contestants. And to further make it difficult, he called a SWAT team and for their help, he gave a briefcase of $10,000 to each one of them.

Thus, as the challenge ended, 23 out of 100 subscribers managed to conceal themselves for a stretch of 10 hours. And went home with $10,000 each.
