MrBeast has finally broken the YouTube record for the most number of views gained within the first 24 hours of uploading a video, with the latest one about surviving a week stranded at sea. The popular YouTuber had been inching closer to the title for months after one of his previous videos came close to dethroning the infamous Will Smith slap clip.
With a mission to become the most liked non-music video creator, Jimmy "MrBeast" thanked his fans for allowing him to live the life of his dreams in a post on X, formerly Twitter. He also said the dream was years in the making, as he had been thinking about leading such a life since he was 13.
Announcing that he doesn't take his huge fandom for granted, the YouTuber wrote:
"New video broke the world record for most views in 24 hours on a non music video! I’m living the life I would dream of every night when I was 13.. I love all of you and thank you so much for watching our videos!!! I’ll never take you all for granted."
