The eccentric king of YouTube Jimmy Donaldson aka MrBeast is back with yet another historic video in the making. On his social media, Jimmy shared a tease for his upcoming video that shows that he is all set to embrace his dark side and become the real-world variant of Gotham’s caped crusader, Batman.
Both Jimmy and Batman have the same superpower, money. Moreover, both use their power for the good of people, although their methods are drastically different. From his latest tease, it has become apparent that inspired by the legendary superhero, Jimmy has planned an ‘All seeing’ setup for his upcoming video.

In one of his recent Instagram stories, MrBeast shared that he and his crew have created a ‘Dark Knight’ inspired surveillance rig, known as the Bat-Sonar. However, it may not be as big and powerful as shown in the movies, but it consists of 100 screens and cameras to keep an eye on every corner without moving around. Just like a Bat with its sonar.

However, Jimmy may have forgotten that setting up observation cameras in public is not legal. This was even addressed in the movie. Batman’s subordinate, Lucius Fox, told him that he will leave his side if the machine is not destroyed. Understanding his comrade’s concerns and understanding the power such a machine could have, he agrees to destroy it by the end of the movie.
Jimmy may have missed this detail, or maybe he is well aware of it. The next video of MrBeast could most probably be the start of his villainous arc. Jimmy could be seen misusing the power of the Bat-Sonar. However, closely inspecting the tease, it appears that the cameras are set inside a compound.

Although the rig is directly inspired by the movies, the purpose of the machine could be completely opposite. The common speculation by the fans is that Jimmy is planning yet another Squid game-style video and the surveillance rig is to keep a watch on the participants of the tournament. In the end, all we can do is wait for the video to drop witness which path Jimmy takes. Will he become a hero like Batman or a villain like Joker.
