Jimmy Donaldson (born: May 7, 1998MrBeast (formerly MrBeast6000), is an American YouTuber currently residing in Raleigh, North Carolina. He is known for doing a wide variety of expensive challenge videos that reward thousands of dollars, donation videos involving a lot of money, videos either with arduous tasks or survival, original vlogging videos, and more.
), commonly known on the internet as his YouTube channel name,He started the channel in 2012 at the age of 13. He was initially known for uploading the "Worst Intros" series, a series of videos where he reviewed small pre-teen YouTubers with funny or "bad" intros. Over the years, as he gained more sponsor money, he became a lot more generous and helpful to others.
With unrelenting passion and devotion to finishing arduous, yet creative, challenges, Jimmy has become an extremely popular YouTuber in recent years, and one of the most subscribed non-corporate YouTube channels, having reached the 60 million subscribers milestone as of April 2021. His main channel is the 23rd most subscribed channel in the world and the 10th most subscribed channel in the United States.[1][2] With the exclusion of children-oriented channels, corportation channels, and channels of music artists, MrBeast is the second most subscribed YouTuber, only behind PewDiePie.
Personality
Jimmy is particularly generous and kind, as shown by his donations and giveaways. He's also humble, as he doesn't flaunt his money; He funds lots of money towards good causes and hasn't shown buying expensive things for himself. He has a very polite personality, except with his friends, where he is more laid back and energetic.
Early life
Not much is known about Jimmy's childhood, except that he has two brothers, a sister and it appears that Jimmy doesn't have any contact with his biological father. Before he started MrBeast6000, he had a now-deleted channel called Beast5ty. He started his new YouTube channel at the age of thirteen, under the name "MrBeast6000."
YouTube Career
Jimmy officially started his YouTube channel on February 19, 2012. He first started uploading gaming videos, and the first video game that he recorded was Minecraft. After a year, Jimmy started recording other games such as Pokemon Online, Black Ops 2, and Battle Pirates. He also started his first series where he talks about how much each YouTuber earns, the first being PewDiePie.
After two years, Jimmy stopped making gaming videos and started to make discussion videos, where he would discuss many random topics that he wanted to. On April 18, 2015, Jimmy officially had 2,000 people subscribed on his channel, which led to him deciding to make a video about it, being grateful for the success.
In 2016, he used to make a series called "Worst Intros" which involved him laughing at lower quality intros, but these videos are now deleted because he shifted his content to challenges in 2016-2017, then stunts that allow him to grow in popularity, mainly because of both his generosity and original type of content.
As the years go by, the videos started involving bigger challenges and bigger prizes. At one point, with the increase of content and channels made by MrBeast (gaming videos in 2020, reaction videos in 2021, philanthropy videos also in 2021), MrBeast went from an independent YouTuber with a few friends to a whole production company, registered as MrBeast LLC, featuring around 50 employees who were shown on camera and presumably around 50 more off-camera, all of them getting highly paid to work on MrBeast's videos for a living and with Jimmy being the CEO of the company. Other than cameramen and editors, they also have ADR tech, logistic techs, producers, two accountants, a lawyer, admin staff, a personal bodyguard, a business manager, a talent manager, medical professionals for challenges, and construction workers that build his sets.

Jimmy uploaded the second $200,000 Youtuber Battle Royale video on this channel.
Income & Spending
Currently, he has an estimated net worth of around 25+ million dollars (currently; number may vary). In many of his videos, he budgets hundreds and thousands of dollars, but of course, it depends on the video, like if he is buying something expensive, donating a lot of money to people, or hosting a challenge with his friends; it all requires a large amount of money. According to a Colin and Samir interview, he and his team have spent a total of $50 million a year investing in his videos and this number tends to increase as MrBeast receives more popularity. Moreover, a MrBeast staff member confirmed that in the more recent videos of the main channel, they spend around $350,000 to a million dollars per video.[4] He has several sources of income: he generates money from the advertisements that can be found on his YouTube videos on his main and gaming channels, he also gains money from sponsors (Quidd, Honey, etc.) as well as merchandise from ShopMrBeast, he is gaining a bit of extra income from MrBeast Burger.
Involvement in PewDiePie vs T-Series
Advertising PewDiePie
On October 24, 2018, Jimmy made a video called, I Bought Every Billboard in my City to do this. In the video, Jimmy used multiple billboards around his city to advertise PewDiePie and to prevent a music company, T-Series, from surpassing PewDiePie in subscribers. Additionally, Jimmy created online ads to advertise PewDiePie that, when clicked, redirects to PewDiePie's channel.
Jimmy also advertised PewDiePie on public posts, newspapers, and the radio, the PewDiePie advertisements have garnered significant attention locally and globally, causing PewDiePie's channel to grow at a faster rate than T-Series. T-Series was approximately less than 100,000 subscribers away from becoming the most subscribed channel up until the release of Jimmy's video, which temporarily halted the channel's growth. Likewise, Jimmy's channel had also gained exponential growth off of the video and the advertisement, which he had mentioned himself on multiple occasions.
Saying PewDiePie 100,000 Times
Even after Jimmy advertised PewDiePie with billboards, it did not stop T-Series from slowing down from PewDiePie longer. T-Series was approximately 90,000 subscribers away from surpassing PewDiePie before Jimmy made another video to keep PewDiePie #1 most subscribed. On November 25, 2018, Jimmy says PewDiePie 100,000 times. At the start of the video, Jimmy tells his fans and new-comers to subscribe to PewDiePie and to help him win the war. The subscriber growth was given to PewDiePie once again, gaining 244,000 subscribers the day of Jimmy's upload, and 247,000 subscribers the next day. Jimmy also gained major exposure from the video and gained 181,000 subscribers on the day of its upload, which is Jimmy's fastest growth in terms of subscribers in the past 24 hours. Jimmy also gained 151,000 subscribers the next day.
Surrender
Even after Jimmy helped out PewDiePie, PewDiePie made a tweet, It looks like this is it boys. with a picture of a text saying Dawn of The Final Day 24 Hours Remain, in which PewDiePie now surrenders his #1 most subscribed title, as T-Series growth had not stopped. Jimmy also made a tweet responding to PewDiePie saying It was an honor fighting by your side, in which Jimmy gives up and can no longer help PewDiePie further, possibly to prevent lack of PewDiePie videos from Jimmy, as it can get weaker along the way.[5]
Advertising PewDiePie at the Super Bowl
On February 3, Jimmy and his affiliates made plans to try and advertise fellow YouTuber PewDiePie's channel while attending Super Bowl LIII (53). To do so, Jimmy bought seats next to one of the end zones, with him and his affiliates wearing shirts ultimately spelling out "SUB 2 PEWDIEPIE" to be seen during one of the field goals. The attempt was broadcasted on live television, with approximately 110 million viewers watching the game. ESPN later tweeted a picture of one of the field goals, subsequently featuring Jimmy's ad.[6] Afterward, PewDiePie's growth grew from 50,000 subscribers to 277,000 subscribers in a single day.
Expensive Challenges
Projects
TeamTrees – Planting 20 Million Trees
- Main article: Team Trees

Team Trees, also known as #teamtrees, is a collaborative fundraiser that managed to raise 20 million U.S. dollars before 2020 to plant 20 million trees. This initiative was founded by MrBeast and Mark Rober and it was supported by a large part of the YouTube community as a whole, including some YouTube personalities.
All donations go to the Arbor Day Foundation, a tree-planting organization that pledges to plant one tree for every U.S. dollar donated. The Arbor Day Foundation planned to begin planting in January 2020 and end "no later than December 2022".
It is estimated that 20 million trees would take up 180 square kilometers (69 square miles) of land, absorb around 1.6 million tons of carbon and remove 116 thousand tons of chemical air pollution from the atmosphere.
MrBeast Burger

- Main article: MrBeast Burger
MrBeast Burger is an online delivery only fast-food chain and restaurant brand created by Jimmy Donaldson. This restaurant, temporarily opened physically in only one location, is the key setting and location for the video "I Opened A Restaurant That Pays You To Eat At It".
In a November 2020 article with The Wake Weekly, Will Hyde, a producer of the MrBeast channel, announced that Jimmy would launch a virtual restaurant called "MrBeast Burger" in December 2020. Hyde said his team worked with the company "Virtual Dining Concepts" during the development of the virtual restaurant concept. MrBeast Burger then serves the burgers to restaurants across the United States and customers will be able to order the burgers via online delivery services.
On December 19, 2020, the MrBeast Burger application for Android and iOS devices was developed for ordering food from there only by delivery. For now, the MrBeast Burger deliveries are only available in 300 locations in the United States and not internationally, but there are plans to allow these deliveries to happen internationally in the future.
MrBeast's 2020 YouTube Rewind
On November 17, 2020, MrBeast announced that he was going to make his own YouTube Rewind due to YouTube cancelling their annual Rewind that year. MrBeast also said that if other YouTubers wanted to come and help, they could reply to him on Twitter. After 1 month, MrBeast released his own YouTube Rewind on January 1, 2021, titled "Youtube Rewind 2020, Thank God It's Over".
It featured many notable YouTubers giving their thoughts about what should be in MrBeast's Rewind, and their thoughts about the worst events of 2020. In addition, there were tributes to some celebrities who passed away in 2020, such as Kobe Bryant, Chadwick Boseman, Ruth Bader Ginsburg, and Alex Trebek. There was also a so-called "face reveal" which had been teased by Dream on his Twitter prior to the release of the Rewind, though his face was not shown, instead being hidden under a mask.
