My money is on Mr. Beast running a game show out of RFK's wellness camps. "Only one of these foul minorities will be allowed to be allowed to live, and will fight each other to the death to earn their life!"

He will live up to his name.

he fucking what?

Disclaimer: I hate this guy and all the stupid things he did in the past.

I don't understand the issue here. Assuming what he is telling regarding the safety features are true, this is not more dangerous than a stunt scene in a movie. If they had hired someone who is not a professional stunt man, I would classify this as 'dangerous'. But I can't really see the issue of shooting a 'stunt scene' with professionals, just like any action movie will do.

That said, I think this is just manufactured outrage, which will create more views for that video. Probably thile response to the video was underwhelming, and they wanted to drive up the views to ensure revenue.

I once posted a Youtube video from this man in my disability-focused community, in which he helped a lot of people get prostheses, because I thought was he did in his video was kind of cool.

I didn't know him back then. The post and the video got backlash I didn't expect.

Now I know him and I understand why.

Stop giving this leech attention. This headline is manufactured for attention.

I’m so ready for the influencer era to be over.

how in the fuck is this not the onion. he's just doing his own satire now

Yeah, YouTube recommended that video and I gave a fucking pass. I have no interest in watching a paid professional act like a desperate contestant degrading themselves for this dipshit's billionaire's petty cash.

“$1,000,000 if you let me stab you in the stomach five times.”

“Ok, I guess. My daughter has cancer, and this is the only way I can save her.”

* Stabs him four times. *

“Oh god, it hurts. Ok, I’m ready for the last one.”

“Nah, I think we’re good. So I’ll be keeping the $1,000,000.”

Geez, I thought Squid Game was supposed to be a metaphor

Holy shit I thought this was satire until I saw bbc at the bottom what the fuck.

Edit: ah it's not that awful just a wild headline

I guess he realised he fares better as a psychopath rather than a philanthropist?

we are really getting dumber as a species.

Must be a slow news day to report on a youtuber commenting on their own production of stunt videos with trained professionals

This has ‘Late Late Breakfast Show’ vibes. Those around in the 80’s in the UK will probably remember the Noel Edmond’s variety show, a precursor to Noel’s House Party. They had members of the public do stunts. There were regular concerns about safety and eventually someone died.

Sociopaths aren't concerned about the safety of others.

"MrBeast tries to justify attempted murder" FTFY

A stunt man doing stunt man things? Lame

this guy is extremely dangerous and will do anything for viral videos

How is he still active? Who is supporting this shitstain? Christ, the world is doomed.

This timeline is so cooked

What a nice desensitized road we’re going down
