Mr. Beast :- How did a person who used to crave for every single subscriber 13 years ago become the biggest YouTuber in the world? I am talking about Mr. Beast who was recently offered $1 billion to sell his channel which if seen in Indian Rupees is Rs. 8542 crores. He rejected so much money and that too on just one YouTube channel and his reason behind this was that he did not want to work under anyone and always had his own YouTube channel which is more than 60 million. Where his Mr. Beast channel had already left behind T-series a long time ago and with 340 million subscribers, it is currently the world’s biggest YouTube channel and had filled his YouTube channel for years. You will be surprised to know that with how many difficulties Mr. Beast started making content and how many times he was close to failure. So in today’s video, we will know Mr. Beast’s journey from the beginning and try to know how a middle class boy named Jimmy has become the world’s number one YouTuber Mr.
Beast today. So the story begins with It starts from 1988 when James Stephen Donaldson was born in a middle class family in Kansas State of America. Now who knew at that time that he was going to become the world’s number one YouTuber Mr. Beast. James was lovingly called Jimmy by his mother, due to which he got his name Jimmy. Jimmy was not interested in studies since childhood and he understood this very early, due to which he thought it right to follow his passion by not spending time on studies. At that time Jimmy joined college, but after studying in the university for two weeks, he decided that he would not continue his studies further. He was not interested in studies at all, after which he thought of dropping out of college and following his dream.
His mother was not at all happy with this decision and her anger was justified because Jimmy’s parents had divorced in 2007 and his mother was alone who was taking care of both her sons Jimmy and CJ alone. Like any normal family, his mother wanted Jimmy to settle in his career and get a good job. Parents have basic expectations from their children, but Jimmy calmly explained to his parents and his mother what he wanted to do and how he would not fail on this path, after which his mother also started supporting him, now the story reaches 2012 where Jimmy created his first YouTube channel, but wait a bit, it has been written on the internet and you too must be thinking that today we know him by the first name of Mr.
Beast and in 2012 he created his first YouTube channel, in the same year Jimmy created his first YouTube channel, about which rarely people know, on that channel he used to put gaming related content and the name of that channel was Beast 5t, but soon he realized his mistake, due to which after a few months he decided to delete his channel and start a new channel, actually at that time Jimme used Sub Force Sub to grow his Beast 5t channel, in which you subscribe to the channel of the other user and in return he subscribes to your channel, this increases your subscribers Jimmy soon understood that his subscribers may increase for a day but he will never be able to become a big YouTuber.
That is why he deleted his old channel and after a few months created the Mr Beast 600 channel, which we know today as Mr Beast channel. Initially, he used to upload commentary videos on gaming videos, which mostly had videos related to games like Mafia and Call of Duty. In this way, Mr Beast established his first proper channel and his YouTube channel. He did not even know that this channel started in 2012 was going to demand so much patience and years of hard work in return for his success. It also teaches us that the bigger the success, the more time and hard work is required for it.
Mr Beast’s first video went viral in 2017, but his hard work journey from 2012 to 2017, i.e. for the entire 5 years, was something like this In the beginning of 2012, he was uploading only gaming commentary videos, but soon he understood that these videos were not getting the response as per his expectations, due to this, in 2013 he started uploading experimental videos, in which he made a series of roasting the intros of youtube2 and his series of roasting the intros of creators gave good growth to his channel and by 2015, his channel got 5000 subscribers. His turning point came in 2016 when he uploaded a video of counting to 10000 in which he counted numbers from 1 to 10000, which was a very different theme and this video gave him very good views and took his channel to 10000 subscribers. At this time Mr. Beast was trying to understand youtube3, how videos go viral and what the audience likes to watch.
At that time the content of youtube3 was available but Not many creators were working on out of the box ideas like one to 10000 Counting numbers up to 1 lakh, which was a unique and bold idea in itself. In 2017, he uploaded a video of counting to 1 lakh, in which he showed in fast forward footage that he counted up to 1 lakh numbers in 40 hours.
This video was so unique that it proved to be an instant hit as soon as it was uploaded. Within a few days, he completed 1 lakh subscribers and by the end of 2017, he also completed 1 million subscribers. Before his first video went viral, between 2012 and 2017, he had uploaded 300 to 400 videos, that is, about 100 videos every year, which tells without saying what level of dedication you need for success and that too when your hard work is not showing results for years. This journey gave him an opportunity to learn that youtube2 Around 17 it started to seem that Mr Beast had made his first viral video Giving a Homeless Man $100 at the end of youtube1.
This video uploaded was based on the theme of donation and charity and this kind of content was completely new for the audience at that time. Giving $100 to an unknown homeless person was taking donation to a different level. With this video, Mr. Beast set a benchmark of his smart brain as well as kind heart personality.
By that time, he was earning a lot from his channel, but instead of using that money on himself, he decided to invest it in the production of his videos so that not only his channel grows but he also keeps getting unique content. However, giving 000 rupees earned by his hard work to a random person was not an easy thing. That is why as soon as this video was uploaded, he had a different emotional connection with his audience and finally Mr. Beast finally started seeing the result of his years of hard work. This video also proved to be an instant hit like the previous videos, after which he uploaded another donation related video, donating $30000 to random twitch.tv streamers. If you still give high super chat to youtube2 random streamers, this trend was started by Mr Beast in 2017 and it is still as fresh and engaging today, it shows how wise Mr Beast is for the ideas of his videos, his videos do not have to follow any current trend to go viral, rather his videos are on youtube1 year later, if you watch those videos, they will still be as refreshing. Next, he recreated the Counting to 1 Lakh video, but this time on a double scale, Counting to 2 Lakh.
This content was simple to look at, but it was enough to tell that even after becoming a big YouTuber, Mr Beast puts as much effort in his videos as he used to put in the beginning. By this time, there were many changes in his video style as well. Bright colors started being used a lot in his thumbnails, which shows that he had mastered thumbnail designing, due to which even today the thumbnails of every video of Mr Beast are so They are so eye-catching that even if they are placed among many different videos, people will definitely notice that video and this is a factor that Mr. Beast understood a long time ago and that is why his videos always stand out, due to which it would not be wrong to say that this improvement in his thumbnails is a big reason for the success of his channel.
along with this, he has worked on increasing the audience retention of his videos by understanding the youtube2 thing, which is called youtube2, which is very important in making the video viral, this is the reason why Mr. Beast reveals in the beginning of each of his videos what is the content of the video and what the audience is going to see next, but at the same time he also shows some exciting parts to be seen further in the video at the beginning of the video so that the audience’s interest remains and people watch his videos for as long as possible, after this he posted many videos related to donation and charity like what is Tip D Pizza Delivery Guy $100 And this theme shows one aspect of his success which is high risk high reward. To make these videos, Mr. Beast invests in very high scale production, along with the rest of the expenses of making the video and a huge investment is also made in the prize and rewards, one aspect of which is that if he did not get good returns from these videos, then it could have been a very critical situation for him where he would have neither money nor audience, but even then without thinking about it, he took high risk and made such videos for which he is getting proper high reward today. However, at this time such allegations started coming on Mr. Beast that he uses fake money in his videos and does not give money to the winners, which he soon got rid of and proved that real money is used in all his videos and the winner gets full money according to the prize.
