Throwback: Millionaire MrBeast Offered Former YouTube King PewDiePie “$5-Million” if the Latter Met a Certain Milestone

PewDiePie is one of the most revered YouTubers and was considered the king of the video-sharing platform. He rose to become the most subscribed individual figure on the platform and sure did enjoy popularity from it. MrBeast, on the other hand, is the current YouTube king. He surpassed PewDiePie in 2022 to become the most subscribed individual YouTuber.

Jimmy Donaldson has always expressed being a fan of PewDiePie, and there was one time he planned to spend millions of dollars on his idol.

PewDiePie, MrBeast and the story of $5 million

The millionaire YouTuber MrBeast has always been a huge supporter of PewDiePie. It was quite evident during the T-Series vs PewDiePie era when Jimmy and his friends were doing activities to increase the latter’s subscriber count.

But there was a time when MrBeast decided to spend millions for Felix. Once there was a tweet by Keem Star about the 2019 Super Bowl. The tweet was about who was going to be in the Super Bowl. Jimmy Donaldson commented that a PewDiePie ad would be there. The ads for Super Bowl costs around $5 million dollars, and Felix was requesting not to spend that much money for him.

PewDiePie asked Jimmy to not waste that much money on an ad as Felix thinks it won’t be of any use. Instead, the former YouTube king had another request. He asked MrBeast to give him that $5 million dollar by cash. Though Felix thanked the generosity of MrBeast.

Furthermore, PewDiePie asked the fans for helping him convince Jimmy. PewDiePie said in his video that Donaldson had agreed to pay him that money under a certain condition. That is, if this video from PewDiePie reached 100,000 likes, MrBeast would pay PewDiePie that huge amount.

Apparently, MrBeast did not pay PewDiePie the insane $5 million amount. But he did something even more insane. During the NFL Super Bowl of 2019, MrBeast and his team advertised PewDiePie from the stands. That is, he bought out half a row of tickets just behind the field goal. So, when someone scores, the “Sub 2 PewDiePie” banner was seen on the television.

Now, MrBeast, and PewDiePie have ventured into other things in their lives. PewDiePie is churning out videos every now and then for his fans. And Jimmy is expanding his horizon with more innovative videos. Like his recent one where he helped 1000 people get vision. The video has gone viral and had been the talk of the town since its release.
