It’s a big day for Jimmy ‘MrBeast’ Donaldson, as he reaches the benchmark for 300 million YouTube subscribers.
As he celebrates this extraordinary feat, the creator, who is known for his elaborate, high-budget videos, is pulling one of his craziest stunts yet. It involves creators, a giant glass cube, and a stupid amount of money.
In short, MrBeast will trap some of the biggest creators on the internet in a glass box where they will battle it out for $1 million — although exactly what these creators will have to do in the competition is unclear.
Participants include Logan Paul, Kai Cenat, Matpat, KSI, MKBHD, Pokimane, LilyPichu, Sketch, CarryMinati, Ibai Lanos, MoistCr1TiKaL, and Valkyrae, among others.
Usually, these types of inter-creator face-offs are reserved for the boxing ring, so the very fact that MrBeast has managed to round up all these famous faces for a competition is impressive.
Still, for the average person, $1 million is a life-changing amount of money, whereas for some of these creators, it’s nothing more than pocket change. The stakes for this contest are pretty low, and it does feel a bit navel-gazey.
Either way, we’ll find out whether it is worth watching this Saturday, so mark your calendars.
