Jimmy ‘MrBeast’ Donaldson is one of the most prominent creators on YouTube. The viral mastermind has delivered some of the most extraordinary pieces of entertainment available on the red platform. But despite his ingenuity and business acumen, he doesn’t possess future sight. Unlike Twitter user JASON, who predicted the Will Smith-Chris Rock incident six years before it happened!

Your eyes aren’t deceiving you. JASON managed the ridiculous feat, even if it was a hilarious fluke. The tweet has gone viral overnight. As hundreds of thousands flock to the stunning post, MrBeast himself has responded with an amusing inquiry.

MrBeast has a hilarious response for the Twitter user who predicted the infamous Will Smith blow

For the uninitiated, JASON shot a tweet way back in 2016, saying, “Will Smith has to punch Chris Rock in the face …. He has no choice”. This was in response to the comedian’s Oscar monologue calling out Jada Pinkett Smith for boycotting the event. Chris Rock poignantly noted, “Jada boycotting the Oscars is like me boycotting Rihanna’s p******, I wasn’t invited!”.

Significantly, JASON’s tweet has aged like fine wine. As Hollywood superstar, Will Smith shocked the world by delivering an echoing slap to Chris Rock for his joke regarding Jada’s hair. The fresh prince also dropped an F-bomb, saying “Get my wife’s name out your f****** mouth”. So with JASON having established his impressive foresight, Jimmy has turned to him for some financial advice.

Although it must be noted the YouTube maestro probably meant it as a joke. In fact, with his mastery over viral content, it’s perhaps the smart choice to engage with the tweet that’s sitting at over 800,000 likes at the time of writing.

In a hilarious turn of events, Will’s slap also had the unexpected effect of breaking MrBeast‘s YouTube record recently. According to reporting by Comicbook, Jimmy’s real-life Squid Game video garnered 43 million views in a matter of 24 hours.

However, The Guardian’s uncensored upload of the Oscars incident has dethroned the aforementioned video by accruing 56 million views within the same time frame.
