Jimmy \u2018MrBeast\u2019 Donaldson is one of the internet\u2019s most famous figures. The YouTuber, who currently reigns as the site\u2019s most-subscribed creator, has become a social media icon for his wildly extravagant videos and charitable projects. From his big-budget recreation of Netflix\u2019s hit series Squid Game to his super-viral video paying for 1,000 people\u2019s cataract surgeries, MrBeast is nothing short of a household name on the internet. However, despite his good deeds and high-value entertainment, the influencer has come under fire in the past due to his wealth. He notably received a swath of backlash after he published his cataract surgery video, with some critics accusing him of profiting from disadvantaged people. More recently, the YouTuber came under scrutiny after publishing a video comparing a $1 plane ticket vs a $500,000 ticket. Some users suggested that he may have been paid to promote the more expensive airlines\u2026 but another content creator is hitting back at those claims. YouTuber hits back at claims MrBeast was paid for extravagant airplane video YouTuber Nonstop Dan says that he worked with MrBeast to make his plane ticket experiment come to life, and claims that Donaldson was not paid by any of the airlines involved to promote their companies. In fact, Nonstop Dan says that MrBeast actually encountered major difficulties in securing filming rights on the planes, and ended up paying for the whole project out of his own pocket. \u201cYou might be surprised that, not only did he pay full price for all his tickets \u2014 sometimes buying out the whole first class cabin for tens of thousands of dollars \u2014 but the airlines didn\u2019t even want him onboard,\u201d he claimed. \u201cHis team had a huge battle to even be allowed to record. Point is, the airlines made literally hundreds of thousands of dollars and got over 100 million views of free promo, all while giving MrBeast a hard time.\u201d This isn\u2019t the first time MrBeast has spoken about losing a huge chunk of change on his videos; in fact, the YouTuber claims he doesn\u2019t even care how much money he makes from the platform, saying he only \u201clikes money because I can hire more people and grow my business, but not so like I can increase my lifestyle.\u201d<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>YouTuber claims MrBeast was not paid for extravagant airline video YouTube: FLAGRANT, MrBeastA YouTuber is claiming that internet superstar MrBeast was not sponsored by airlines in a $500,000 video, but instead encountered major difficulties and ended up paying out of pocket for the project.
