Information reaching Kossyderrickent has it that MrBeast hit 200,000,000 subscribers on YouTube.
The popular YouTuber Mr. Beast, whose real name is James Stephen Donaldson, has become the first YouTuber in the world to reach the 200 million subscribers milestone on the platform, trailing only behind the Indian music label account T-Series.
At only 23 years of age, Donaldson has already amassed 200 million subscribers across 19 of his official YouTube channels. A graphic tweeted by MrBeast Statistics claims that he has over 162 million from his English channels and another 37 million from his international channels.
Donaldson has become one of the most recognizable names since rising to prominence in 2017. Known for his high-profile stunts and expensive giveaways, the internet personality attracts millions of views with every new video he posts.
Donaldson began posting on YouTube in 2012, mainly focusing on Let’s Play content and videos talking about the earnings of some of the biggest creators on the platform. In 2016 he decided to withdraw from Eastern Carolina University to pursue YouTube content creation full-time. While this was undoubtedly a huge risk, it has more than paid off.
Expressing his excitement over this significant milestone on X (formerly Twitter), Mr. Beast announced, ‘We’ve hit 200,000,000 subscribers!’ He further expressed that he wouldn’t have believed it if someone had traveled back in time to show his 13-year-old self a screenshot of 200 million subscribers.
Confident in achieving more milestones in the decades ahead, Mr. Beast stated, ‘This is just the beginning; I still have decades left in the tank.’
