Why MrBeast’s New Video Became the Second Most Watched in 24 Hours in YouTube History

Y ouTuber Jimmy Donaldson, known to most as MrBeast , recently uploaded a new video that racked up 47 million views in 24 hours to become the second most watched non-music YouTube video within that time frame. In the video, titled “$1 vs $1,000,000,000 Yacht,” the 25-year-old compares a sinking boat worth one dollar to various luxury boats and a billion-dollar yacht. It also features surprise celebrity appearances from comedian Pete Davidson and recently retired NFL quarterback Tom Brady .

MrBeast, the third most subscribed YouTuber, who is known for his generous giveaways, tweeted the news of his second ranking on June 11. The only video that ranks higher is The Guardian’s Will Smith and Chris Rock Oscars slap snafu video , which had 50 million views in its first day last year. MrBeast actually bumped his own video out of second place: Prior to the yacht video, his video recreation of the popular Netflix series Squid Game held the second position. His latest video beat the Squid Game one, which currently has 438 million views and is his most viewed video, by 5 million views within the 24-hour timeframe.

The 15-minute video features MrBeast showcasing seven different boats, ranging from $1 (which sinks within the first few minutes of the video); to a $300 million boat that contains luxurious furniture, a movie theater, and helipad landing onboard; to a $1 billion cruise liner that holds “a floating city.” Viewers witness MrBeast peruse the exclusive sites alongside a handful of his crew members, and toward the end of the video with a handful of lucky subscribers.

More from TIME

If you’re new to the world of MrBeast, it might not immediately compute why a video about yachts would be such an immediate hit on the platform.

“What Jimmy has done here is take a luxury lifestyle item like a yacht or a cruise, something that the average American has aspirations for, and he’s able to contextualize them in a very fun and silly way,” says Jack Appleby, the creator of Future Social , a newsletter teaching social strategy to over 45,000 marketers.

You don’t get nearly 50 million views within 24 hours by chance. This video was so successful, Appleby tells TIME, because of the strong digital strategy of the YouTuber, who uploaded his first video as a tween in 2012 and became widely popular in 2017. “This is a guy who has meticulously studied YouTube content for a decade now and understands what we want to see.” Like the rest of MrBeast’s successful videos, this one includes helpful YouTube video elements: an eye-grabbing thumbnail, a catchy title, helpful subtitles, as well as graphics, video hooks, and transitions that keep viewers engaged. Appleby believes this video’s billion-dollar boat price tag and surprise celebrity appearances make it “way over the top compared to his other videos.”

So @MrBeast ’s new video hit 47 million views in 1 day—the 2nd highest 24 hour view count in YouTube history. I analyzed the video minute-by-minute, detailing 25 storytelling tactics he uses to pull you in + keep you engaged for a full 14 minutes.

And he isn’t simply showcasing the luxury items, like other successful formats have done (see, for example, mega YouTuber Casey Neistat , whose most viewed YouTube videos features him vlogging his experience on the world’s most expensive plane rides). In fact, it isn’t until the last three minutes of the video that he tours the billion-dollar yacht, after the majority of the video has been spent on showing cheaper boats and random anecdotes with his friends as they explore all the boats have to offer. “He uses constant tactics to keep you engaged,” says Appleby. “In this video, he used screen watermarks that remind you which boat you’re looking at and what you have to look forward to in the video.”

Another significant element of the new video are the cameos. MrBeast doesn’t often have celebrities in his videos, and despite not advertising them in the video thumbnail or title, the inclusion of Davidson and Brady as surprise guests works to broaden his reach to the sports and comedy fandoms. “I think it’s the nicest boat in the world,” said Brady in the video of the $300 million offering. Brady also says in the video that his children won’t stop eating MrBeast’s chocolate line Feastibles , serving as an endorsement of MrBeast’s other entrepreneurial efforts. His videos are largely successful with the children and teen demo groups .

It was clear even before his latest video that MrBeast is in a league of his own, with his biggest competition being himself. “The snowball effect is going to be larger and larger,” says Appleby of MrBeast’s future successes. “I think we’re at the beginning of how big this guy’s gonna be.”

MrBeast maritime adventure: YouTuber gives insight on $1B Royal Caribbean cruise ship

LOS ANGELES, CALIFORNIA: MrBeast , a well-known YouTube celebrity and philanthropist known for his thrilling challenges and deeds of kindness, did a new voyage at sea. The video blogger shows his viewers a variety of boats, each one grander and more expensive than the last, before arriving at the magnificence of a $300 million yacht.

But the good times don't end there. As the grand finale, MrBeast takes his subscribers on a voyage on the $1 billion dollar Royal Caribbean's Harmony of the Seas, one of the largest cruise ships in the world. The video received a staggering 62 Million views on Youtube in its first two days of availability.

MrBeast's maritime adventure

In his most recent video, MrBeast took to the sea. The incredibly well-known YouTuber started an unheard-of journey that elevated his quality of video creation. The Harmony of the Seas, operated by Royal Caribbean International, is one of the world's largest cruise ships and the subject of MrBeast's most recent investigation.

The adventure started out with MrBeast amusingly spending time on a $1 yacht. The novelty of this little craft was immediately eclipsed by its inability to withstand the elements as it began to sink, leading to a humorous, hasty escape by MrBeast and his friends. A tour of a $1 million yacht was the next stop on the voyage. With many bedrooms and a sizable living space, this more roomy vessel delivered unexpected luxury.

MrBeast and his companions continued their opulent cruise by traveling to a $10 million boat. They were impressed by its increased size and its first-rate amenities, which included more bedrooms and luxurious seating places.

The excess didn't end there. MrBeast and his crew appreciated the extra novelty of getting pizza delivered by helicopter while sailing a $25 million boat. When they explored a stunning $50 million boat, the thrill was amplified even more. But this was when things started to get interesting.

The superyacht portion ended with a stunning $300 million vessel. MrBeast and his companions toured the ship's many decks, opulent cabins, state-of-the-art gym, movie theater, and even a helipad while being catered to at all times by a crew of 50 people.

Harmony of the Seas

MrBeast embarked on the Harmony of the Seas in the big climax of the video. With a gross tonnage of 226,963, this cruise ship is among the biggest in the entire world.

The video by MrBeast started with a tour of the ship without any passengers, showing off all of its facilities, and it ended with him doing what has made him famous: giving back to his subscribers. The $1 billion cruise ship offered a free cruise to all 400 of his subscribers.

A total of 6,687 passengers can board Harmony of the Seas, including 5,479 double occupancy passengers who will be looked after by 2,200 devoted staff members. There are 2,747 stateroom options available to passengers, including 1,957 balcony cabins, 448 inside rooms, 266 outside rooms, and more.

The ship has 16 guest decks and a total of 18 decks. Highlights include Splashaway Bay, a children's water park, The Perfect Storm, a trio of water slides, and the Ultimate Abyss, a 10-story drop. She launched her first trip on May 29, 2016, after being constructed at the St. Nazaire, France-based Chantiers de l'Atlantique shipyard.

The $1 dollar yacht was big and had a great look on the outside, but on the inside, it was mostly wood and then the yacht started to sink.

It had a living room, 2 bedrooms, and some pillow beds. After that, Jimmy was sailing over to the $10,000,000 dollar yacht.

$10,000,000 [ ]

4 master bedrooms, and upstairs, there were seats that were soft, comparing to the $1 yacht as it was leather and hot.

$25,000,000 [ ]

This yacht can hold 150 people in it, so Jimmy invited all his friends there. There was a bedroom in the back, and a taller ceiling so Jimmy does not hit his head compared to the $1,000,000 yacht. The yacht has a living room, an office, a massage parlor, 2 dining rooms, and 7 bedrooms. While Chandler was getting his massage, Nolan found Feastables. After, a chef came with the yacht, but the boys wanted pizza. Jimmy told them that he ordered it by a helicopter drop off. After, Jimmy says when you pay $25,000,000 dollars, you get jet skis.

$50,000,000 [ ]

The yacht is 234 feet long, 4 stories high, can hold over 200 people, and comes with a 20 person crew. Jimmy invited Pete Davidson over. When you pay $50,000,000 dollars, you get a remote so you can call the crew at anytime. The remote also lowers the TV down and raises it up.

$300,000,000 [ ]

The yacht has over 50 crew members waiting on your every request. 49 rooms, and 9 master bedrooms. The crew member said that the yacht is the 69th largest yacht in the world. There are 6 floors, a massive pool, and a hot tub with a view. The yacht comes with a gym that overlooks the ocean. A movie theater with windows the auto-darken whenever you watch something. Then, a dining table worth $3,000,000 dollars. And a piano that plays by itself. There was a haircut area, and a sauna. Downstairs, there are 7 jet skis. Behind the door is an exit to the ocean. On another floor, there was an even bigger helicopter pad.

$1,000,000,000 [ ]

The yacht is 4x bigger than the $300,000,000 yacht. Is also bigger than 3 Statues of Liberty, It is a floating city that is 1,200 feet wide, and 17 stories high. It can fit ALMOST 10,000 people. The yacht has over 2000 rooms. It has water slides, an indoor mall, a basketball court, and tons of other stuff. There was a sports floor, including mini golf. Then, there is a carousel, restaurants, shops, arcades, and Starbucks. There is also an entire floor for indoor shows and events. Jimmy then invited 400 random subscribers on the big yacht. Inside the mall, there is a bar that comes down from the ceiling. There also is a bionic bar. Nolan announced that the subscribers can stay there for 3 days.

• Jimmy mentioned that there will be a secret MrBeast video that won’t be uploaded to YouTube.
• The $1,000,000,000 Yacht was actually a cruise ship he rented. It is the Harmony of the Seas.

MrBeast’s New Video “$1 vs $1,000,000,000 Yacht” with Pete Davidson, Tom Brady, and All his Crew Members!

From the creative mind of Jimmy Donaldson, widely known as MrBeast , this extraordinary event pushes the boundaries of what is conceivable on YouTube.

The video, which has already garnered millions of views within hours of its release, showcases MrBeast’s unparalleled ability to orchestrate attention-grabbing content that transcends traditional online entertainment.

The stakes are higher than ever as the participants go head-to-head in a battle of wits and determination, pitting a mere dollar against a luxurious, one-of-a-kind yacht worth a staggering one billion dollars.

MrBeast’s Latest Video $1 vs $1,000,000,000 Yacht

In a jaw-dropping display of audacity and star power, MrBeast has once again captivated millions of viewers with his latest video extravaganza, “$1 vs $1,000,000,000 Yacht.”

This grand spectacle features two iconic figures from the entertainment and sports world: comedian Pete Davidson , NFL superstar Tom Brady and All his Crew members .

All of Nolan Hanson’s friends were also in the video.

Happenings in the Video

Upon boarding his newly acquired boat, MrBeast immediately understood the motivations behind its owner’s eagerness to sell. With a disappointed tone, he remarked, “And stepping onto the vessel, it became abundantly clear why this yacht carried a price tag of just $1.”

The boat’s designer, witnessing the unfortunate turn of events, observed the utter lack of value even at such a meager cost as water started seeping through the lower floors. Expressing concern, the designer added, “The floor is not meant to behave this way… I am doubtful if this vessel was even worth a single dollar.”

In a lighthearted moment, the creator of the film playfully shouted at the gradually submerging boat, eliciting laughter from those present. As the passengers swiftly disembarked, renowned philanthropist MrBeast and his companions took to the water, swimming back towards the safety of the shore.

Amidst the comical scene, he humorously exclaimed, “My baby… I paid a whole dollar for that.” However, the true purpose of the film was to showcase the grandeur of luxurious yachts and their escalating price tags. MrBeast further demonstrated this by presenting the opulent interiors of six additional vessels, with price ranges spanning from a staggering $1 million to an astonishing $1 billion.

Have you ever seen a $1 billion yacht? Let MrBeast show you

G REENVILLE, N.C. (WNCT) — Have you ever seen a $1 billion super yacht that’s big enough to hold an entire city on it? If not, MrBeast can show you.

Best of MrBeast: Would you take $1 or a mystery prize?

His newest video was released Saturday. He and his friends checked out yachts that ranged from $1 to $1 billion. It takes on a familiar beat to one of his last videos, called the “$1 vs $500,000 Plane Ticket!,” which was released on April 1.

In this video, there were many boats and yachts he showed off. He started with a big boat he bought for $1. It very quickly became apparent why it was so low. As soon as they put it in the water, it literally started sinking until it was completely underwater.

The next yacht was a $10 million one that was a little bit nicer with more bedrooms and bathrooms. It also offered more seating areas with better material.

It was followed by a $25 million yacht they considered to be “a mansion.” It also came with a chef. While all of that was nice, they put the yacht’s helipad to good use and got pizza delivered. See how they did that here .

MrBeast said he turned down $1 billion deal for his YouTube channel and associated companies

• MrBeast — real name Jimmy Donaldson — has over 100 million subscribers on his main YouTube channel.
• On the Flagrant podcast, Donaldson said that he received an offer of $1 billion for his content empire.
• He said it would take an offer of at least $10 billion to sell. 

YouTuber MrBeast — whose real name is Jimmy Donaldson — said he received an offer of $1 billion to take over his content empire, including his main channel which has over 100 million subscribers, but turned it down. 

During an appearance on the Flagrant podcast on September 27 , co-host Andrew Shulz said he was "shocked" that Donaldson hadn't been offered "the craziest check in history" for his content.

"I have been offered a pretty crazy one," Donaldson said. "There's people, not like official term sheets, but people that would be able to afford it, a billion dollars if they could own the channel and the companies and stuff."

Related stories

The 24-year-old said he couldn't give any further details of who or where the offer came from but that it was a legitimate offer. 

Flagrant's co-hosts asked Donaldson whether he had a price in mind for his channel and associated endeavors if he were to sell in the future. 

"It's so crazy I don't even want to say it because it's just where I want to be. If we have a mobile game company and we got 100 million people playing it, and we have a thousand physical Beast Burgers and Feastables in 20,000 stores, it would probably be like $10 billion, $20 billion," he said, referring to his burger restaurant chain and line of chocolates and cookies. 

In July, Insider reported that Donaldson planned to hire a programmer to create a "mobile strategy game for iOS and Android."

Donaldson is one of the most popular and highest-paid creators on YouTube, and is known for stunts like turning a backyard into a ball pit , and giving away a million dollars but only giving people one minute to spend it. He's given away everything from an island , to luxury cars , to millions in cash.

But his rise to fame has not been without controversy — last year, a group of former employees told The New York Times Donaldson created a hostile work environment and that his "demeanor changed when the cameras weren't around."

Donaldson launched a delivery-only restaurant brand, MrBeast Burger, in December 2020 and sold over one million sandwiches in three months. In early September 2022, MrBeast Burger opened its first physical restaurant at the American Dream Mall in East Rutherford, New Jersey. Thousands camped out for the opening.
