With over 130 Million followers and billions of cumulative views, MrBeast dominates the current YouTube scene. He worked really hard, was passionate about his art, and threw away millions of dollars worth of videos to achieve his incredible accomplishment. But what happened to the people who scooped all this enormous cash?
MrBeast creates ludicrous challenges of epic dimensions in his films, offering thousands of cash to the winner. He has already awarded about $8 million to challenge winners as of 2022. So far in 2023, MrBeast has given away $600k worth of cash in two different challenges. While these enormous riches have given people new lives, some of them have also had to deal with negative effects.
Top 5 winners of YouTuber's giveaway challenges
1. Cam
The biggest and most watched video on the MrBeast channel is a challenge video where he invited 456 competitors to compete for a $456,000 cash reward in a real-world version of the popular Netflix program 'Squid Game'. The contest's victor was a guy by the name of Cam.
Cam was able to defeat all 456 competitors and win the competition despite applying late. Many people tried to approach him after he won the money, but he ignored them. Cam has disclosed that he would use the funds to support his family and create his future.
2. Della Vlogs
Of all the MrBeast challenge winners, YouTube vloggers Bella and Dallin, aka Della Vlogs, had the greatest level of success. Their channel attracted a million followers after winning $500,000 in the chocolate factory competition.
The couple acquired several things, including a farm, with this cash. They also gave generously to charity, and because Bella is a self-made young billionaire, they were able to give approximately $6 million to non-governmental organizations.
3. Chandler
The MrBeast team's amiable member had won a sizable island worth $800,000 from one of the challenge films. For a long time, Chandler had kept this island to himself.
But finally, he had to sell it since he could no longer afford the taxes and maintenance. He's still a part of the MrBeast crew. Along with that, he just got married and established his own fashion line.
4. Shawn Hendrix
With few resources, he had successfully spent 100 days in a circle. He had lost all contact with his family. Following his winnings of $500,000, Shawn invested the money in his dream house in North Carolina and started his own TikTok and YouTube accounts. Even some of MrBeast's videos are directed by him.
5. Zealous
Zealous was one of those people that were able to launch their career as a result of MrBeast. Zealous applied for a MrBeast challenge without even having 100K subscribers. Zealous's channel, however, sprang to fame after his appearance in Jimmy'd video thanks to the millions of subscribers he attracted and the attention his content received.
His career as a content creator has been quite successful, and he currently has over 3 million members.
