started as a YouTuber that did trend videos like “I did the latest trend, but did it BIGGER”
figured out a (very exploitative) formula for maximising viewer retention whilst getting as many sponsorship deals into a video as possible
Became the first YouTube Millionaire
Started amping up this formula by making the challenges shocking and attention grabbing, such as “I PUT 10 PEOPLE IN AN UNLOCKED HOTEL ROOM, LAST TO LEAVE GETS $5 MILLION”
realised he could wash his terrible reputation by occasionally releasing a charity video instead, kept it being exploitative though, his most famous example was “I CURED THE BLINDNESS OF 100 PEOPLE” (all blind because they had treatable, easily, diseases but American Healthcare is so exploitative they couldn’t afford to get the treatment)
Managed to get a TV series called “Beast Games” that’s this but TV
He’s basically everything wrong with YouTube rolled into one person
Being serious:
He’s basically everything wrong with YouTube rolled into one person
You didn’t even mention his terrible chocolate and candy
Ooh yeah true I did
Ollie’s has Mr. Beast beef jerky. Seems more appropriate.
