MrBeast has recreated his popular ‘Press this button, Win $100,000’ challenge. The earlier rendition of this challenge was a huge hit for the YouTuber, gaining over 250 million views. The premise of this challenge is straightforward, players just need to press a button. Doing so generates a random challenge or gives the player a grand prize of $100,000.

In the earlier version, MrBeast’s crew members competed with each other for the prize money. This time, however, the challenge was hosted on a private Minecraft server. And MrBeast brought three random Minecraft players, GradyTV, heyGraecie, and notmarkie, to participate in this challenge.

After the commencement of the challenge, the three participants had to complete various challenges. And the YouTuber made sure these challenges were not easy. GradyTV had to mine a vast block to retrieve one single block of a diamond while heyGraecie had to completely destroy a house with over 1000 pieces. While at first notmarkie thought he had a fairly simple task of killing a chicken, the chicken he had to kill had a thousand health.

Most of the challenges were in the Minecraft server. However, some tasks were required to be accomplished in real life. For one of the challenges, MrBeast asked GradyTV, “You have to go touch grass in real life.” To make things more interesting further down the video, MrBeast covered the button with Obsidian, which takes a lot of time to break.

After completing a string of challenges, GradyTV emerged victorious. Earlier in the video, MrBeast was almost able to convince the winner to skip his turn. If he would have done so, one of the other participants would have won the challenge. Winner of the real-life version of Press the Button, Karl Jacobs, was also present throughout this Minecraft rendition. He hosted the challenge alongside MrBeast and offered the players helpful advice and fun banters. Although GradyTV won $100,000, the kind-hearted YouTuber also presented heyGraecie and notmarkie each with $10,000.
