"I should do more like this": MrBeast's latest video almost broke another YouTube record

Jimmy "MrBeast" is perhaps one of the most popular YouTubers ever. In typical fashion, his latest video has gone viral, amassing millions of views since its release on May 27. However, as per a tweet posted by this creator, it appears that the video was one of his more successful ones. This is because it barely missed out on breaking a YouTube record for the most viewed non-music video in the first 24 hours.

In a tweet posted on May 28, Jimmy revealed this information. MrBeast was quite jubilant and optimistic as he broke this news, telling his viewers that he will probably try to do similar content in the future. Here's what he said:

"New video almost broke the record for most views in 24 hours on a non-music video... guess I should do more like this."
