Understanding the Algorithm
MrBeast seems to have figured out how to monetize his YouTube channel in a major way. He appreciated the thousands of views, but he had his sights set on greener pastures. He quickly learned that the only way to make money was to spend it on outrageous antics, and he has since made that his entire business model.
His pranks always had positive messages, such as “Giving a Random Homeless Man $10,000” and “I Donated $30,000 to a Random Twitch Streamer.” As usual, he continued his outrageous antics, such as trying to “fly” with nothing but leaf blowers.
