MrBeast has broken yet another YouTube record, surpassing T-Series to become the platform’s most subscribed channel. On Saturday, June 1, the YouTuber, whose real name is Jimmy Donaldson, revealed on social media that he gained an extraordinary 2.1 million subscribers in just 24 hours, setting a personal record. MrBeast shared the news on Twitter, expressing his amazement at the milestone.
Typically, the 26-year-old content creator averages around 250,000 new subscribers daily. While he hasn’t broken the record for the most subscribers gained in a single day on YouTube, MrBeast holds several other records, including the most subscribers gained in a week, month, and year. His massive growth is attributed to his high-budget videos, each costing approximately $2.5 million, comparable to the budget of an independent film.

He reinvests his earnings back into his content, believing in the long-term success of his channel.
The YouTuber’s latest achievement further solidifies his dominance on the platform. His innovative and high-stakes challenges, giveaways, and philanthropic endeavors continue to captivate millions of viewers worldwide, making him a central figure in the YouTube community. As MrBeast’s channel grows, fans eagerly anticipate what record-breaking feats he will accomplish next.
