Millionaire MrBeast Gives Clarity On Why He ‘Dumbs Down’ His YouTube Videos

YouTube megastar MrBeast has a remarkable fashion of tailoring his videos with a lavish prize. While he already invests millions in his videos, something tells us that he could have put in more money. However, he has given the reason for his not doing that and greed is way away from the real answer.

Jimmy Donaldson, better known as MrBeast, is a prominent content creator in the community. The 24-year-old YouTube has redefined the content creation craft. Recently, he surpassed PewDewPie on YouTube and has over 115 million subscribers on YouTube. While he keeps on producing his signature content, here’s why he had to tone the prizes down.

Why does MrBeast lower the winning prizes on his already lavish videos?

While appearing on the TMG podcast, MrBeast talked about his future career, his videos, his thinking about content creation practice, and many other interesting topics. Surprisingly, a segment came where he spoke on the fact that people have a hard time believing his content is real. Subsequently, to make them believe, he admits to having to tone it down as the videos keep getting bigger and bigger.

MrBeast said, “You know actually what’s interesting is the bigger the videos get the less people think they’re real. So like if I give away a million dollars in a video I’ll get hundreds of thousands of comments and tweets like, ‘This is fake clearly this is fake no YouTuber could afford it.'”

Furthermore, he said, “Same thing when I give away private islands or that video. A lot of people just won’t think it’s real. Whenever I go above a hundred thousand dollars no one believes it and they just let they just can’t fathom that a YouTuber can make that kind of money. So like a lot of videos I’ll dumb down the prizes just so people think it’s real.”

Noel Miller, the co-host of the podcast, asked Jimmy, “So, will you actually give them a larger Prize or you intentionally make it like oh you’re competing?” To this, MrBeast answered, “For just some videos like instead of giving away like 300 Grand, I’ll give away 100 just because if I do higher people just don’t think it’s real.”
