Whatever happen to him? I used to watch =3 and it was good for a while and then just started getting sponsor heavy.

Yeah, it's been like, 15 years since I've seen a video from him. Totally forgot he existed lol

It's weird when something suddenly pops up again that was completely lost in your brain. I used to watch a lot of small YouTubers back in that timeframe that i forgot the name and everything. Every now and tgen someone pops up and i'm like yeeeeeeah, i saw that guys backyard many times.

He’s still huge on YouTube. Seen a funny video from him a couple days ago where some girl lied and said he was her father and he abandoned her. He got flooded with tons of messages out of nowhere.

I feel like he got pretty mean with an obviously mentally ill person, buuuuut, he had the right.

i wouldnt says hes huge anymore, he has a smaller following. huge is mr beast huge, or sniperwolf huge, or one of the new influencers.

18 million subscribers is still huge. He’s doing better than he was back in the day.

mrbeast is just absurd (sub count and all of it). I doubt many people truly like his content, they just fantasize that one day he’ll throw them some money.
