Mr. Beast is a well known content creators, mostly known for his gameshow type of videos on YouTube. Almost all of his videos gain millions of views and people overall enjoy watching his content. Mr. Beast has now become the most subscribed channel on YouTube. Previously, the crown for the channel with the most subscribers was held by T-series, a Bollywood music production channel. It had been the same since 2018, when T-series was successful in gaining more subscribers than the channel known PewDiePie. PewDiePie had to face too many controversies in 2018 and it was a good chance for T-series to take over.

Mr.Beast, whose real name is Jimmy Donaldson, was ecstatic with the news of him becoming the most subscribed on YouTube. He wrote on X that he has finally taken revenge for PewDiePie from T-series. When PewDiePie’s channel was competing with against T-series, Mr. Beast offered a lot of support to PewDiePie.

Right now, Mr. Beast has 270 million total subscribers on his YouTube channel. Mr. Beast has also continued breaking records. Just in August 2023, he also claimed that one of his videos on his YouTube video has the record for highest views in 24 hours for a non-music video. This was when Mr. Beast’s subscribers were 174 million so this is really impressive.

It is important to note that, despite Mr. Beast has claimed the throne as YouTube's most subscribed channel, his impressive subscriber count doesn't necessarily translate to the most views.
