MrBeast has officially surpassed Swedish YouTuber Pewdiepie and taken the spot as the number one most subscribed YouTube content creator.
Jimmy Donaldson or more popularly known as MrBeast, is a famous American YouTuber and entrepreneur. He is famous for his videos where he pulls off expensive stunts and gives away a lot of money. MrBeast is said to be the pioneer of a new genre of content on YouTube that features expensive giveaways and huge spending. MrBeast is also the co-creator of Team Trees which is a fundraiser that has successfully raised over $22 million and planted over 20 million trees.
A few years ago, Swedish YouTuber Pewdiepie had a subscribers race with TSeries and Cocomelon. At that time, MrBeast came to Prediepie’s aid and urged people to subscribe to Pewdiepie. It was a race to be the first to reach 100 million subscribers on YouTube. Since then, Pewdiepie has basically retired and moved to Japan and now makes content rarely.
MrBeast, on the other hand, is doubling down on content creation and even gave away a free island after reaching 100 million subscribers. For the last year or so, MrBeast has been gaining new subscribers at a frightening rate. And just recently, he blew past Pewdiepie’s subscribers count.
