MrBeast comes under fire from fans again
The latest video from MrBeast ‘Every Country on Earth Fights for $250,000’ was an achievement in its own rights. This video was the biggest video yet from the YouTuber with over $4 million being put into it. Furthermore, the video also almost had a person from every country. Almost because MrBeast made some geographical errors in the video, leading to online critics targeting him.

In the past, MrBeast made a geographical error in his video ‘$1 vs. $250,000 Vacation!’. However, the mistake made this time has caused an uproar on a much bigger scale, as it has touched on a sensitive topic of border issues. The video had participants from Hong Kong but not from Taiwan and Tibet. Furthermore, territories of the United States and the United Kingdom also had their own participants in the video.

MrBeast’s innocent video adds fuel to border fires across the world
Across the world, there are several ongoing border disputes, as well as territories fighting for the right to be recognized as independent nations. MrBeast’s video has been criticized for not taking these factors into consideration while making the video. A Twitter user by the name of Proley Taire made a thread explaining the errors made by the YouTuber in his world map present in the video.
