Jake Weddle gives a "warning shot" to MrBeast for allegedly blackmailing amid controversy involving him, DogPack404, and Rosanna Pansino

Jake Weddle, a former Jimmy "MrBeast" employee, has released a new video in which he issued a "warning shot" to the YouTuber following the recent controversy. For those unaware, Jake Weddle got into the spotlight when he appeared in YouTuber DogPack404's video titled, I Worked For MrBeast, He's A Sociopath.

In the 50-minute-long video, Weddle leveled serious allegations against MrBeast, claiming that the Kansas native allegedly hired a registered sex offender in a managerial position. Jake Weddle also accused the most-subscribed YouTuber's team of keeping him sleep-deprived during the filming of a video.

On August 10, 2024, Jake Weddle uploaded a video, Jake The Viking vs Jake The Weddle, in which he insinuated that the 26-year-old was allegedly "telling lies" about him, DogPack404, and Rosanna Pansino. Claiming that DogPack404 received two cease and desist notices, Weddle remarked:

"But DogPack received not one, but two cease and desists. Huh?! Two warning shots? That's interesting. Now, me personally, I would love to get a lot of stuff on the record. I would love to go through a discovery process. But I'm not going to send you guys a cease and desist. I have no money and no power."

He then issued a "warning shot" to MrBeast, saying that he "won't tell no truths" about "six or seven" people associated with him under the following conditions:

"But just to let you guys know - this is a warning shot and I do not send two. Don't tell no lies about me, DogPack, and Rosanna (Pansino), and I won't tell no truths about six or seven of you guys over there."

Jake Weddle further claimed that MrBeast was engaged in "blackmail":

"And look, I'm a nice guy. You guys saw my video. I don't want to do this. I think this is gross. Genuinely! The idea that you need to blackmail somebody to shut them up is disgusting! I'm not trying to shut anybody up. I'm trying to make sure everybody can talk."
