Jimmy Donaldson, better known as MrBeast has had a phenomenal last year. The American YouTuber must be on cloud nine after closing out Forbes’ list of highest-earning YouTubers with a first-place finish. From hosting his own version of Squid Game to the tremendously successful MrBeast Burger, 2021 was MrBeast’s year and his boom sent ripples across the entirety of YouTube.

Furthermore, Jimmy seems to have no intention of laying off the stunts this year. It is only two months into 2022, and MrBeast is already showing off a well-nigh impossible feat.
Conveniently we have 5 diamond play buttons and I only have 4 friends
MrBeast and his crew of Diamond Play Buttons
Donaldson greeted his fanbase to a stunning post on February 22. Sitting with over 150,000 likes at the time of writing, the post reads, “Conveniently we have 5 diamond play buttons and I only have 4 friends.”
The self-explanatory post showcases Jimmy sitting with friends, each ceremoniously holding a Diamond play button making a grand total of five. While it is a dream for any creator to show off just one Diamond play button to their audience, with a name like MrBeast, normal rules don’t apply.
It seems a $54 million payday is not enough of a flex for the YouTube titan.
This isn’t be the first time Jimmy showcased the celebratory play buttons for his audience. In a video on the MrBeast Shorts channel, Jimmy gathered all of his play buttons to be shown to his audience. Since then, his Shorts channel has crossed the 10 million subscriber threshold.
