Over the last decade, the American YouTube personality, entrepreneur, and philanthropist has pioneered a content genre focusing on expensive stunts, challenges and donations. The more popular he gets, the more money he gives away.
Well now, one lucky subscriber has won an extraordinary prize of a private island.
Before hitting the mammoth achievement, MrBeast teased the celebratory video on Twitter. He said the 100M special would mark his most extravagant video to date.
His video titled “I Gave My 100,000,000th Subscriber A Private Island” saw the popular YouTuber fly a hundred of his subscribers to the location where they took part in challenges.
