Challenge 1[]

Contestants 6 and 89 were the only ones who left within 10 minutes, so 25 people were eliminated at random.

Challenge 2[]

In the second challenge, each row chose a captain (in gold). A certain amount of money would be offered and if a captain accepts it he and his rank will be eliminated.

The 30-year-old contestant gave in on the offer of $100,000, thus eliminating the entire age group of 21-40.

At this moment all contestants in their 40s made an alliance.

Challenge 3[]

The third challenge consisted of a spinning wheel with all the participants, the participant who sailed in the roulette could be eliminated by the previous one.

After the third elimination, contestant 43 was saved, thus the control of those eliminated fell completely to the 40s alliance. 43 decided to eliminate every contestant she landed on, except for those in her own alliance. She was influenced by 42, who was seen as the villain of the challenge due to his power-tripping. The first contestants to be eliminated by the 40s alliance were 66, 57, and 65.

When 11’s age was landed on, he wept and pleaded to be saved. Despite 43 feeling bad for 11, he was eliminated anyway.

9 other contestants would then be eliminated quickly, including contestants 17, 16, 63, 79, 52, 76, 93, 83, and 75.

When 62's age was landed on, she decided to leave the challenge immediately, instead of letting the 40s alliance decide her fate. This decision was made because of 42’s villainy.

The wheel then landed on Feastables, MrBeast’s chocolate brand. Because Feastables was sponsoring the challenge, everyone got a chocolate bar.

With one elimination left in the challenge, 43 passed the ban hammer to the next number on the wheel: 41. 41, influenced by the alliance, eliminated 100 in a similar manner to 11.

Challenge 4[]

In the next challenge, all the cubes were covered and they took another $250,000. If someone came out in the next 10 minutes they would take them, but if more than one came out they would be eliminated.

42 spoke loudly saying that he was going to come out, he was about to win until 58 came out in the last 2 seconds in revenge for the massacre of the previous challenge. Due to this sabotage, both 42 and 58 were eliminated.

Challenge 5[]

The fifth challenge was inspired by the American program "Deal or No Deal", so much so that Jimmy brought out the original host of the show, Howie Mandel, to the stage. There were 18 briefcases that said either “eliminated" or "safe" inside, one contestant chooses a briefcase and the next contestant decides whether to steal it or not, whoever had the briefcase would be eliminated. Most of the contestants based their decision on the other contestant's trust and honesty. The challenges’ victims were 14, 43, 44, 45, 51, 59, 54, 71, and 67.

Challenge 6[]

The sixth and last challenge consisted of each one telling their story so that everyone could choose who went before the final 5.

  • 48 wanted to spend the money to help his son with special needs
  • 46 wanted to give back to his native Philippines.
  • 64 had no health insurance and severe nephropathy.
  • 47 wanted to help her cousin, who had lupus.
  • 56 wanted to help his son, who was autistic and non-verbal who was about to turn 7.
  • 72, who was saddened by the stories, had her business fall victim to the COVID-19 pandemic.
  • 61 wanted to spend the money on her mining platform.
  • 96 wanted to help his daughter.
  • 41 wanted to help her twin sister.

They ultimately decided to eliminate 61, 46, 96 and 72.

The alliance of the 40 also collapsed after an agreement to expel 46.

Spends[]

The 47 year old contestant won $250,000. She walked out of the challenge emotional, and was filled with glee to have been congratulated by her parents who have been backstage the whole time.

Other contestants who received money were:

  • Age 30 won $100,000
  • Age 100 won $20,000
  • Ages 41, 48, 56, and 64 won $10,000
  • All of the eliminated contestants shown in the video (Ages 42 and 58 as well as the 27 contestants eliminated from the first challenge) appeared to have earned a stack a cash with what looked to be around $500-$1,000 as a consolation prize
    • Additionally, according to a comment by one of the 20s that got eliminated from the second challenge thanks to the 30 year old (now deleted), she stated that the 20s and 30s earned $500 after being (unfairly) eliminated, so it can assumed that the aforementioned eliminated contestants have also earned the same amount of money after leaving the challenge.

Trivia[]

  • This was a sequel to Ages 1 - 100 Fight For $500,000.
  • In this video MrBeast in the Spanish Secondary audio track is again dubbed by Fede Vigevani.
    • The 14 years old is dubbed by Soy Carlitos and the 16 years old is dubbed by Yankee, two members of Fede Vigevani's Vecibanda.
  • The 11 year old and the 71 year old are the only contestants to return from the first game.
  • This is the longest video of 2024.
  • This video calls the 11 year old by his real name, Gio.
  • Perhaps ironically in a twist of fate, near the beginning of the video when introducing the contestants, the 30 year old contestant said that he and his row (21-30) will make it all the way to the end of the challenge, but after he sacrificed himself and his row in the second challenge, they got entirely eliminated, thus seemingly making this action made by contestant 30 no longer true, and said tactic appeared to have been passed on to 42 and his own row, forming the 40s alliance as a result. And it came true: despite the alliance being broken after the agreement to eliminate 46 in the penultimate challenge, contestants 41, 47 and 48 managed to make it to the top 5, with 47 ending up being the winner of the whole challenge.
  • 2 follow ups of this video were made in the form of YouTube shorts, with one video called, “Would You Split or Steal $250,000?”, featuring contestants 42 and 58 partaking in a challenge from Survive 100 Days Trapped, Win $500,000 (which itself is based on a tiebreaker challenge that first appeared in MrBeast Gaming) where the 2 contestants have to decide whether they split the $250,000 or have either one of them take the money, to make up for the damage 58 caused for 42 by making 42 lose the chance for the money he wanted to win, and another video titled “Ages 1-100 Try My Chocolate”, showing contestants from the video trying MrBeast’s new Feastables chocolate bar, although the reactions of 100, 58, 48, 47, 42, 14, 11 and even 1 are only shown in the short.
  • This video is sponsored by Top Troops.
  • This video in some ways mirrors the previous Ages 1-100 video:
    • Both videos start off with the contestants behind Jimmy, then a line of contestants by their respective ages going from age 1 moving all the way to age 100.
      • Additionally, Jimmy's introduction in this video is almost the same as his introduction from Ages 1 - 100 Fight For $500,000, where in both videos he says, "Behind me are 100 people; they range from age 1 all the way to age 100".
    • The first set of contestants to be eliminated were the youngest and a couple from the elderly group.
    • The first challenge of both videos resulted in approximately 25 contestants to be eliminated.
    • The first day (at one point) had the contestants be left in their cubes for a long amount of time without any challenge, causing many people to become bored and leave their cubes.
    • The decade of ages 1-10 was the first decade to be eliminated, making all of the kids be the first group to leave (except for Gio, who was 11 and was part of 11-20), much like the previous 1-100 video.
    • Both videos had the contestants not getting along and starting drama with each other at some points.
    • 42 acted like 54 from the previous 1-100 video, as both led an alliance of a middle age group and teamed up with their neighbors to eliminate other contestants via manipulation, thus earning both 54 and 42 the title of "villain/antagonist" of their respective 1-100 videos.
    • Both videos had a middle aged decade form an alliance, both of which occurred during a challenge that had to do with choosing who gets eliminated. The alliances also survived the whole challenge without eliminating a single contestant from their group (albeit one contestant of their respective age groups got eliminated from a prior challenge).
    • Gio, the 11 year old (also the 10 year old from the last 1-100 video), got eliminated in a similar way from last time, that being getting eliminated from a challenge that involves deciding who leaves, and was the youngest victim of both of the challenges he partook in. As a result, Jimmy felt so bad for his elimination that he got Gio to help him with the rest of the challenge.
      • Gio begging and pleading not to be eliminated while crying could have originated from his traumatic ordeal of him being eliminated due to being voted out unfairly from Ages 1 - 100 Fight For $500,000, as he likely did not want a repeat of what happened before.
    • The final victim of the spinning wheel challenge was the 100 year old contestant, and much like the voting challenge from the previous 1-100 video, he was the oldest victim of the challenge, making Gio the youngest victim and the 100 year old contestant the oldest victim, much like 96 being the oldest victim of the voting challenge.
      • Additionally, the 100 year old contestant was compensated money by Jimmy, just like the 96 year old contestant of last year's video.
    • The 42 year old got eliminated and lost his chance at $450,000 because of contestant 58 leaving his cube at the last second, much like how 54 (the other "antagonist" of the last 1-100 video) got eliminated because of his arrogant behavior towards the other contestants, especially 74. In other words, 42 got eliminated because of something having to do with another contestant of an age group he started beef with, like 54 having beef with 74 of the 70s.
    • The Deal or No Deal challenge somewhat resembles the final challenge of Ages 1 - 100 Fight For $500,000, as both challenges involve the contestants having to choose a briefcase and deciding whether to take their own briefcase or their opponents' with one contestant peeking inside without telling their opponents. Both challenges also had to with telling the truth or lying, as the contestants (as well as MrBeast and the crew members) have no idea what is inside, so they have trust each other if either one of them wants win the prize.
    • When the top 10 (or top 9 in this case for this 1-100 video) happened, the outcomes appear to be in stark contrast with each other. In Ages 1 - 100 Fight For $500,000, during the top 10, the contestants consisted of young adults and middle aged people, leaving the elderly side empty, while in this video, the Top 9 consisted of middle aged people and elders, leaving the young people's side empty.
    • Age 96 from this video and Age 96 from Ages 1 - 100 Fight For $500,000 both got eliminated the same way as each other, which is being voted out by the remaining contestants.
    • The final contestants to make it near the end of both videos were a few from their respective alliances (In other words, the top 10 of Ages 1 - 100 Fight For $500,000 had 52, 53 and 54 from the alliance of the 50s, and when the final 2 occurred, 52 survived. In this video, 41, 46, 47 and 48 of the 40s alliance managed to make it to the top 9, with 41, 47 and 48 surviving until the top 5).
    • The final challenge of both videos required the contestants to leave their cubes (without getting eliminated) and interact with each other to see who wins the grand prize.
    • Both videos ended with someone in their 40s being winners, with the runner-ups/last 4 contestants of the top 5 being compensated with money for almost making it to the top.
  • Some people have speculated that candidate 48 lied to allow candidate 47 to win, but this can be refuted by the fact that of the 5 remaining candidates 3 were in their 40s so 48 probably ranked 47 second after him (probably because they made an alliance) 47 probably ranked her first ( probably because it's her) and 41 probably ranked 47 second after her (because she probably felt closer to her than the others although we didn't really see them interact together, we can also note that 47 voted to eliminate 72 which allowed 41 to stay so she probably put 47 in second position after her as a sign of recognition).
  • According to Jimmy on Jon Youshaei's channel this was the record with the most cameras ever recorded.

Errors[]

  • The text "I'll Buy You Robux" the last word is misspelled as "Roblox" this has also happened in the captions.
  • When the 44 year old contestant opens his case the age on the top left corner is incorrectly shown as 45.
  • When it shows the Ages 1 - 100 Fight For $500,000 the numbers between the hyphen are not spaced and "for" doesn't have a capital letter.
  • Sometimes the fonts displaying on the screens keep changing.
  • At 19:08 the timer said that there is 39 seconds left but if we look at the background of candidate 42 the tablet said there is 04:03 minutes left, however this was probably made on purpose for more emotion or this was recorded before the actual time.
  • When they are 39 contestants remaining the number is miscounted as 38.
  • During the Spinning Wheel challenge, the wheel landed on Feastables near the end of the challenge before the final elimination. However, the contestants prior to the Feastables sponsor were shown to have the chocolate bars in their cubes, even the eliminated contestants have them. However it could be that some of the bars were given as a treat prior to the challenge or the wheel actually landed on Feastables before the elimination of certain contestants (although it's most likely the latter possibility since the 16 year old contestant can still be seen in his cube when the 14 year old got his chocolate bar).
  • MrBeast said that there are 36 contestants but the screen shows 33 and also the 3 contestants who are out are not shown.
