Mr BEast has his own chocolate line and makes millions every year from his YouTube videos.
There are some things in life you really would not expect someone to do it in real life.
Like re-creating fictional things that we all know and love.
Simply because they are impractical, extremely costly and very laborious to do so.
That is exactly what Mr Beast the YouTuber did.
He built a life-sized Willy Wonka Chocolate Factory, complete with a chocolate river, chocolate doors, marshmallow room and giant mentos.
He recently hit 100m subscribers on YouTube!
Ok, even if you don’t watch his videos or know much about YouTube metrics, 100 million is still an impressive number regardless.
“Jimmy ‘MrBeast’ Donaldson has become one of the biggest names on the internet in recent years, with the ability to create viral YouTube videos like no other, and many other creators looking to imitate his work and success. Now, he’s joined a truly elite club by reaching 100 million subscribers on the platform.”
He had a livestream to literally countdown to the 1 millionth subscriber.
I saw his Willy Wonka Chocolate Factory Video which he really went all out to build.
He is famous for such antics, going to extreme lengths for his YouTube videos.
I guess he understands the principle of “making even more money with more money”.
How much did he spent?
Probably a fortune.
The time it took to plan this whole thing is just staggering.
The amount of effort, coordination from the various teams and contractors needed to pull this off.
The sponsors he had to spice things up.
The know how, connections, talents and resources needed to plan and create all this from scratch.
It is refreshing to see the way he introduces sponsors and ads into his narrative as the game goes along.
How much did it take to recreate every detail of the Willy Wonka Chocolate Factory?
What I’m saying is that it takes effort and careful planning for all these to happen.
He did the same for the squid game video too!
It is amusing how each of the amazingly intricate prop and stage took so long to build and he spends only a few seconds on it.
For the love of content creation I guess.
Gordon Ramsay even came to judge the final dessert-making challenge!
That was a painful judging and I bet he hated every dessert made, but it was entertaining to watch.
How did he convince Gordan to do it?
I guess when you have an unlimited budget, one of the largest audience on social media and a great personality, you can pretty much get anyone you want.
Still can’t believe Gordon joined the video.
Mr Beast even gave $10k for some of the participants who got eliminated midway through the games.
He gave the final winner the entire factory, made him sell it back to him for $500k, and still got 87M views for the video on YouTube.
Genius.
“For the year 2021, according to Forbes’ annual list of the highest-paid YouTubers, Jimmy Donaldson (MrBeast) earned an estimated $54 million from his videos on the platform. YouTuber Nate Woodbury estimates that MrBeast makes $50-$100 million per year.”
All that money don’t come easy.
He has to put in the work.
Mr Beast, started his journey at 11, has 17 YouTube channels and is very active on Twitch.
He is also an entrepreneur and a generous philanthropist.
I can’t wait to see more of his outrageous antics and videos.
