Jimmy Donaldson, better known as MrBeast, has made history on YouTube by becoming the first individual content creator to reach 400 million subscribers. This is a huge achievement and sets him far ahead of the competition—he now has over 100 million more subscribers than T-Series, the popular Indian music channel that has long dominated the platform.
To celebrate this major milestone, MrBeast posted a message on X (formerly Twitter), where he shared a personal story about his journey. He talked about how hard things were in the beginning, when almost no one believed in him. For seven years, he kept making videos and working every single day, even when he had very few followers. He remembered telling his mother that he would rather be homeless than do anything other than creating content for YouTube.
That deep passion and non-stop dedication are now paying off. From small beginnings and facing doubts from others, MrBeast has built a massive global fanbase and become one of the most successful creators in the world. His story is inspiring to many young people who dream of following their passion and proving the doubters wrong.
With 400 million subscribers, MrBeast has not only broken records—he has also shown what’s possible with hard work, creativity, and a strong belief in yourself.
