But of course, he isn’t simply giving it away to someone without a challenge. He explained how he brought 100 random subscribers to the island to compete for it and yet again emphasized that this is the most expensive video he’s ever filmed “by far”.
The video goes live Thursday, August 4 at 4 PM EST. MrBeast also stated that the first person to comment on the video gets $10K, and at the time of writing the short already has 9 million views.
Outside of the surface details, MrBeast didn’t reveal too much. It does seem as if competitors will have to make fire at one point and take a swim in a very blue pool. But the rest will be revealed on Thursday.
