He owes a lot of his success to his stunts that account for tireless hours of work and also the frequent giveaways. There are a lot of YouTube creators out there. Like any other creator, it took him time to find the content the audience liked and satisfied him too. However, the 22-year-old has been breaking the internet for a couple of years now. So, it’s safe to assume that he has found his rhythm.

His numbers speak for themselves. Just recently, YT Battles reported that one of his videos had reached the 30 million views mark.

However, that’s not it. We also know him for his philanthropic personality. He gives away millions of dollars to friends, streamers, and even random people on the internet sometimes.

He organized an event in Minecraft where he offered $10,000 to the last man standing. At a massive location with more than ‘a thousand hiding spots’, the last man standing would receive the amount. Needless to say, everyone wanted a minute to win it.

MrBeast has become a household name in the gaming community. He has donated money to Shroud and also lay his hat on the whole T-Series vs PewDiePie when he donated money to support Pewd’s channel.
