The Satisfying Downfall of MrBeast | Internet Anarchist

0:00MrBeast is currently trying to undergo the biggest cover-up in YouTube history, with alleged cease and desist letters, deleted comments and character assassination. This comes after ex-MrBeast employee DogPak404, also known as Dawson, uploaded two videos accusing MrBeast of having a predator on his team, as well as other unethical, fraudulent and criminal activities. But are these allegations real or is this all simply a big ploy to smith the reputation of YouTube's most popular creator? Hi, I'm the internet anarchist. I create weekly YouTube documentaries and today we're going to be diving into the MrBeast situation. It goes without saying, but MrBeast, aka Jimmy Donaldson, is an extremely popular individual. Being the most subscribed YouTuber with a staggering 308 million subscribers, Jimmy built a reputation in the YouTube community for combining acts of extreme generosity with interesting challenges. I'm a YouTuber, I mean you can see the camera. So I'm just so serious where I just, you know, be nice and just give people some help. So it's about $10,000. Unfortunately, Jimmy's YouTube

1:05empire has recently come under fire following the release of several damning allegations regarding him and his best friend Chris Tyson. On one hand, Chris is facing backlash for alleged inappropriate interactions with miners on a discord server, which I've already uploaded a full video talking about. On the other hand, Jimmy is being accused of faking key elements of his videos and profiting of fans through shady tactics like illegal lotteries. The majority of the accusations leveled against Jimmy would come from one of his former employees, a dog pack 404. On the 24th of July 2024, dog pack uploaded a video titled, I worked for MrBeast, his Afroid, which started with the claim that Jimmy was deliberately manipulating the psychology of young viewers and had been rigging certain portions of his videos. I wanted to provide some context to the video. I'm a former MrBeast employee and today I'm alleging that the company rigged videos and did illegal lotteries and sold fake signatures. I would consider that fraud, okay? Thank you and enjoy the video. Dawson continued the video by outlining the steps of how the MrBeast brand was using reward-based psychology to get young views

2:07to acting in a certain manner. Now MrBeast intentionally manipulates these children's vulnerable minds for profit using three simple steps which closely align with the three major types of behavioral learning. Step one is getting the viewer to associate the brand with rust and authority. MrBeast videos are real and he's a great guy that gives away big rewards to his loyal followers. I will show you Irifutable evidence in a minute that his videos are in fact fake. Step two is showing the viewers that when people interact with MrBeast in a way that benefits MrBeast when they do what he tells them to do, they win big rewards. Following this, Dogpack pointed out several inconsistencies and rigged scenarios in a number of Jimmy's previous videos. Also, if what we had to film was scripted, you know, because what we do is not scripted so you have to plan for a bunch of variables that you can't control, blah, blah. If what we did was scripted, holy shit, this stuff would be easy to pump out. Have you ever faked a video? No. But this train track is CGI, these bus wheels are CGI, this explosion is fake. Strader is CGI. This car is digitally lifted, this pit is fake, this guy is fake, this raccoon is a paid actor,

3:10dirt is island cost more than a dollar. This city is not a bandit. These buildings are CGI, but it's not your only way out, you can literally get a new work to the airport for $20. That's not a lurker, it's just a guy. This whole rumours fake, this contestant is an actor and a secret employee, MrBeast, and got to this fake door twice. This line is scripted, this action is scripted, it facts pretty much all the videos with Mac are scripted. Including some extra touches to a challenge video in purse production was one thing. Bet outright influencing the outcome of said challenge or contest was a completely different story. Okay, so MrBeast fabricates some contestant dialogue and timers and movements and storylines and uses a bunch of shitty CGI, but who really cares? I mean, the videos are just for entertainment only, right? I mean, it's not like he's ever rigged the results of a challenge, that would be impossible because he films with hundreds of random subscribers, right? Wrong, let's look at this video. Not only were the results of this video completely scripted, but the contestants are not random subscribers. So many people had jobs? Oh, that can't be true. I guess you forgot she's your hiring manager. I actually recognize a lot of people in this video, including Jimmy's own girlfriend.

4:12So yeah, the random subscribers you see in challenges are actually never random, they're almost always local to MrBeast, and oftentimes friends and family of MrBeast employees or just the employees themselves. In addition to this, Dogpack shared a message from another former employee, who claimed that the MrBeast crew decided to rig the contest to avoid a PR problem. According to a former MrBeast employee, it would have been a PR problem if the boys had won by a lot, and because so many of the female contestants were MrBeast employees who got out immediately, production stepped in to actually make the results of the challenge closer. You can actually see some of this happen on camera, like when Jimmy pays one of the boys, $10,000 to leave, which is twice as much as the actual prize money, but doesn't make the same offer to the girls. The boys are blowing out of the water. I paid the one guy to get to solve them to leave. Now, if you don't win, that was all for nothing. At another point, he gives the girls a camera drone so they would have been able to see how many boys were left. It doesn't work out, but seeing how much they're willing to help them on camera, and willing to believe that they did, in fact, help them off camera. The authenticity of MrBeast's videos wasn't the only thing being called into question,

5:16as Dogpack also presented allegations of him exploiting young viewers through illegal lotteries and other dubious marketing tactics. So now that I've explained some of the ways that MrBeast lies to build trust with this audience, I want to go on to explain how he exploits that trust for profit through running illegal lotteries, selling fake signatures, giving children diabetes and more. It's worth noting that, at least in the US, it's illegal for anyone besides the government to hold a lottery. The textbook definition of a lottery is anything that includes the opportunity or chance to win a valuable prize and requires a form of payment to enter. A typical giveaway would have to eliminate any barrier to entry or monetary requirement to be considered legal. According to Dogpack, MrBeast used giveaways to incentivize young viewers into buying more of his merch and other projects.

6:21And five minutes we're going to do the same thing again, we're going to put a thousand dollars in a random order. Two minutes, newest order, gets two thousand dollars. Good luck everybody. So this was a six hour live stream. They took it down off YouTube, but five hours of it are still up on their Facebook page. And during those five hours, I counted 46 illegal lotteries. Throughout the stream, Jimmy would claim that he'd include something with the most recent orders, in that he was giving away too many prizes to make a profit, something that Dogpack alleged was impossible. We need to stop giving everyone something. Almost everything, almost everything that someone's bought. We've put something in their package. I'm not going to make one. In five hours, they gave away about $50,000 worth of stuff, installed over 50,000 t-shirts, selling these t-shirts at $42 each profit margin would be about $22. But even if they were making like $1 per shirt, they would still be fine. Also, by my estimates, only one in every 1,600 orders actually won a prize.

7:21And I guarantee he has real-time analytics on his laptop. He knows they make more money every time he says, oh my god guys, we're giving away so much stuff, we're not even going to make a profit. Please don't you want me to make a profit. The giveaway stream was seemingly not an isolated incident, as Mr. Bees repeated the strategy multiple times on a much larger scale. Four months later, Mr. Bees signed shirts again, but this time it was a 24 hour live stream with way more illegal arteries. And by the way, the rest of these streams were taken down shortly after upload, so all I have is some old clips and Reddit threads talking about them. Now this stream did say, we are doing a ton of giveaways, no purchase necessary in the description. But to be eligible to win most prizes, you had to make a purchase. Would you guys prefer, would you prefer that we throw money and random orders or that we throw items and random orders? Somebody screamed and chat, I want to switch, buy a shirt. In 30 minutes, we are giving away my car to someone that buys merch.

8:23Dogback also stated that there were other aspects of the stream that was misleading, such as Mr. Bees not even signing some of the t-shirts himself. It does say this limited t signed by Mr. Bees and crew, but the description says it's signed by a member of the Mr. Bees crew, and it doesn't say anywhere that other members will sign mb deceiving people into believing it was signed by Mr. Bees. So here's a clip of Tyler forging, or not maybe not forging, using Mr. Bees signature. So Tyler signs mb, which is Mr. Bees signature, then he covers it, signs his own initials tc, smerks, looks around and then quickly slides the shirt away. Could you make it any more obvious? If these weren't already signs that Mr. Bees was open to exposing his young audience to gambling, he almost worked with a predatory sponsor called Mystery Box.

9:38Dogback continued by alleging other Mr. Bees products, such as festivals, had gambling adjacent elements, because they included the chance of getting a ticket that could be redeemed for other prizes. I managed to literally say that at one point that they wanted to associate buying a feastables with your dream coming true. So they're pitching ideas like, you know, buy a feastables, win 10k, buy a feastables out of a vending machine, and the vending machine just starts spitting out money, buy a feastables, and it has a ticket to Disney World, whatever, right? And I don't want to put a lot of like hearsay into this video. You should just believe the receipts that I'm showing you, not what I'm saying, but I swear to God I said to somebody at the company, I feel like feastables is 70% of chocolate company in 30% of lottery targeted targeting children. In this higher up person I

10:39Mr. Bees said it was probably closer to the other way around. It was laughing about it like 70% of lottery, 30% of chocolate company. However, Dogback would acknowledge that Mr. Bees had a no-perchess necessary clause in some of their promotional material. The only place you'll find no purchase necessary is either on the feastables Twitter account because it's a rule of the platform and even still they try to push it. No perch neck or head in deep in the feastables website under a FAQ. And to enter for free, you have to mail in separate 3-inch by 5-inch hand-adressed written index cards up to 10 a day. Do you think kids are going to do that shit or just beg their parents when they're at Walmart for the YouTuber diabetes lottery ticket? How is this legal? How do you mail something without making a purchase? It was a parent that Mr. Bees was willing to employ some legally gray marketing tactics to boost product sales, but sadly this wouldn't be the only time he utilized shady means to get what he wanted. The expose video posted by Dogback

11:42would go on to Ghana over 11 million views within just two weeks of being public and receive an extremely positive reception from viewers with over 627,000 likes and supportive comments from viewers stating, If this video mysteriously disappears, I've downloaded a copy. This comment serves as my confirmation that this video once existed. Broge has exposed the biggest YouTuber over followed by 300 million plus people. That's a hell of an achievement as well as YouTube should be held accountable for pumping millions for these shady operators to keep exploring kids. However, as you'd imagine, the response from Mr. Bees was not so kind, with a member of the Mr. Bees team coming forward to the bunksome of Dogpacks claims. With a tweet from user Chucky stating, I want to quickly debunk some of the info in this video, since the guy who made it was on my team. It was my decision to fire him for a ratic behavior, he worked to the company for less than a month, and wasn't an employee for most of the videos he mentions to have knowledge on. There's so much in his video and I want to specifically address him saying our videos are fake and staged, because this is not true, I wasn't the said for many of these videos.

12:43You won't get into a video unless your family or friends is someone that works at Mr. Bees. This is a world statement that can be easily proven wrong. There's probably hundreds or thousands of people who have no affiliation to friends or family of Mr. Bees employees. Think the 456 people in Squid Game, or ages 1 to 100, etc. Jimmy doesn't know more than like a dozen people, lol. The train track was CGI, the bus was a CGI, the pit is fake, he acts like he's exposing us using CGI to make backgrounds look cool. When we have done multiple public behind the scenes videos, we're so crispy showcasing this. It's clearly not a secret. On top of that, we did drive buses in that pit, and same with the train you claim we didn't. The recruit was a paid actor. I don't even know what to say about this, clearly non-acto, lol. Island cost more than a dollar. Not true, we did pay $1 for this island, you can google Mr. Bees purchases out of banks island for $1, which stated this before the video was released. He moved into a mansion two months before being in a video, a million dollar mansion. He talks about how two months before we filmed the first Mac video that he moved into a mansion. Mac was staying at a friend's house, and I'm not sure how that

13:45proves anything, or why it's relevant. The wink was added in post, bro. He really did wink, this is a flat out lie again. The revenge storyline was added in post. He implies 42 and 58 was scripted and not real. The contestants themselves have talked about this on streams they did after the video. Their legit didn't like each other. He also claimed 58 was on the far opposite side and didn't hear him. Just because he was on the other side of the room, you don't think 58 heard him yell, how on earth would he know? Not only were the results of this video completely scripted, but their contestants are not random subscribers. He claims that 100 boys vs 100 girls video is scripted, and the proof is of random text saying it is, that's it. It was not scripted. Jimmy probably had countless people on set for that video, and it would have been impossible to hide. This video was not scripted. I wasn't set for this, and there was no bias for who won. He also implies the video is fake because we had some employees in each team. The employees in the video were there to fill in for people who tested positive for Covid last minute before filming. Thea, Jimmy's GF, mentioned this on the podcast over a year ago. If it wasn't for Covid,

14:46they would not have been in it. They had the same money on the line as everyone else. Some random text of someone thinking it was rigged doesn't mean it's rigged. Low. Also, I think some of them is to basically give away the fake. We do not fake giveaways. I've been hands on with some of them, and I've personally been the person to connect winners without counting department to get paid. You also suggested we didn't spend 1 million dollars in Samsung phones, and I can assure you we did. Another live from you. The Mr. Beast employee would then go on to attempt to present DogPak as an unreliable source of information. By stating, he claimed he was under the influence of mushrooms when filming the video. I could keep going on, but I don't want it to be this long. Dawson himself said on Reddit that he was on trumes and weed when filming this video, which might explain some of the made up stuff. Dawson was only employed from March 25th, 2024, and was let go on April 19th, 2024. He was on a 90-day trial, and we ended it early and paid him out to June 25th, as we guaranteed the 90 days of pay, so he could transition into a new job. I'd appreciate it if everyone reading this could help to spell all of this fake rumours by spreading this info. Jimmy spends on fathomable amounts of

15:47money and time to ensure the integrity of what he does, and I hate to see it come into question with a bunch of lies. Dawson, if you leave this up, then you're a hypocrite. With accusations of lies, fake evidence, and creating a baseless hit piece, it wouldn't be long before Dawson would respond in the comments, defending his original video, stating, debunking your debunking, good character assassination attempt. Do you leave out my unpaid trial period and also my time working for Idea Guys, a company for which Mr. Beast is a client? The founder of Idea Guys also had to get permission from Mr. Beast to hire me, so weird you guys didn't tell him that I was erratic. Also, weed in trumes was an obvious joke. Jimmy doesn't know more than like a dozen people. You expect people to believe this? How many people do his employees know? Who was the contestant in the train vest pit? How about Lambert vs. Shredder? How did Ava's cousin Justin get into the chocolate factory video? Or Dull of Logs? CGI is clearly not a secret. Cool, so when Jimmy was accused of using too much CGI in train vest pit, why did he deny it on Twitter? The recruit was a paid actor. Bro, you expect people to believe Chris and Chandler were

16:47petting an actual wild recruit from your own source on the island? The transfer tax was $1, and the company also paid $27 in tax and fees for the property. Also, you lease it back to the owner for $0, $1, plus $27 equals $28. This wink was added in post. It was. Compared that wink to the other contestants' winks in other scenes. Or none of his TikToks, his mouth always partially opens. Here, that doesn't happen. Because in the original footage, it was a blink altered to match the false revenge narrative. Interesting how he didn't mention altering the timers or contestant dialogue in post. Not only were the results of this video completely scripted, but the contestants are not random subscribers. You acknowledge that the contestants were not random subscribers, but refuse to acknowledge the clear rigging that can be seen multiple times on camera. Please watch upper echelons video analysing the case law regarding this rigging. Also, I've now heard from multiple people on the boys team that they were fed much later than the girls, and that the production team was clearly favouring the girls. Days later, on the 1st of August 2024, Dogback would reveal that he'd received a

17:48cease and desist letter for Mr. Beast, demanding that he would immediately take down the video, delete his Reddit, and not spread any more information relating to Mr. Beast. Dogback seemingly had no fear for the cease and desist letter. As the video would remain up, and he would tease a second edition, which would supposedly expose Mr. Beast even further. Amazing YouTuber Oomperville would publish a video on the 2nd of August 2024, interviewing Dogback, where he would reveal more details surrounding Mr. Beast with new allegations of mistreating animals during filming. The raccoon, in reality, it's much worse. Oh shit! Okay, it's a domestic raccoon that they brought to the set, and they're like sort of treating it like a prop, they're putting it in the ceiling, and then pretending like you know, they just discovered it. Yeah, exactly. But then there's a scene where somebody off camera takes the raccoon and like throws it onto the bed, and I'm sure you can pull this clip out. The edit is very strange because there's a zoom in and pan up, so it's like hides the fact that the raccoon is going on the bed. But what it's really doing is hiding the fact

18:52that someone's throwing the raccoon, and then there's a voiceover in post of Jimmy saying, oh man, the raccoon just ran in the hotel or whatever, and they're like screaming at it and shit, so it's like almost, I wouldn't say animal abuse, but like it's kind of borderline mist treatment when you're just like using it as a prop and then just wearing it for no reason. Dog Pack would also address his Mr. Beast non-disclosure agreement, claiming he didn't break it despite posting the video. Because actually people think that I broke my NDA, but like 90% of that video is public information, and then like the other 10, and it's about crimes, was like, it was pretty decently strategic, I don't think they would have a case, and like I've spoken to lawyers and everything. So when discussing the season to Sisleta, Dog Pack seemed unusually calm and collected about it. How do you feel about that? Do you feel nervous or do you feel excited? I'm not confident. You feel excited. A little nervous. You got to feel a little, I would be shitting myself, fairie you. No, I'm not shitting myself. Well, you're, you're,

19:53because there's 100% expected. Right, right. I mean, to be honest, like it's cool to be nervous and not scared though, because like you are coming from the perspective of this is what you believe is truth, and you're doing this out of good faith. Like it doesn't. Dog Pack would also bring up new evidence potentially linking Chris Tyson into the alleged fake giveaways. I do have new evidence of like potentially another legitimate crime, which is that I talked about the golden ticket giveaway from a Willy Wonka video and how one of those tickets went to a guy a YouTuber called DeloVlogs. There was a, another former employee DMed me on Twitter and he told me that there's another contestant in that video who his name is Justin and he's Ava Chris Tyson's cousin. If he did, if they have some explanation, like maybe the contestant dropped out or something and they replaced him with him, then they could be fine, but like in a sweepstakes, if they actually, if he actually want to go and take, which is what the employee is telling me, then that's completely illegal, because you have to disqualify your, you know, family members. With neuroscience of dog Pack

20:56backing down or removing the video, Mr. Beast would allegedly send him another cease and desist, reading, Dear Mr. Dog Pack 404. This firm has recently been retained by Mr. Beast's YouTube LSE and is founder Jimmy Donaldson regarding the unsettling news that you have embarked on a campaign to disparage Mr. Beast as a company and defame Jimmy Donaldson as an individual. Not only are your statements about Mr. Beast and Jimmy Donaldson untrue, they also violate their clear binding and possible terms of your confidentiality and non disclosure agreement with Mr. Beast, dated on March 25th, 2024. Along with the cease and desist, dog Pack would post a tweet indicating Mr. Beast may have been using intimidation techniques to scare him into silence, with a tweet reading, Also, my number got leaked, apparently from a Mr. Beast employee named Kaylee. I've been getting texts from former Mr. Beast employees, a text I received last night claims that James wants to have private investigators start following me, and looking into my family, social media accounts to find ways to discredit me. Apparently the best narrative they have right now is that I'm a crazy drug addicted Mr. Beast superfan that got fired for trying to steal company

21:57funds. If this text is true, I will say Mr. Beast, if you want to result to personal attacks, I'm happy to reciprocate, or you know, just address the evidence. With a tweet containing screenshots displaying the text reading, dude, has anyone at Mr. Beast contacted you about the posts you're making, I've been reading the NDA over to see what I can and can't post, because I'd like to move on with my life and try having some type of social media presence, not planning on ever mentioning work that Mr. Beast, but if it got out or I somehow accidentally mentioned it, I wanted to make sure I wasn't going to get through to hell. Also, if it going to post my message for proof you worked at Beast, I don't care, just don't show my number and you can save it how you want. Also, I got you a number from Kaylee, I don't have access to anything beast like slack or anything. Obviously I'm not a beast employee, I'm a former employee, someone else I knew told me they texted you on Reddit talking about Kaylee and Leroy, I'm not that person and I weren't mentioning any current or former Mr. Beast employees, because of an NDA, as well as another message which was much more disturbing, reading Dorsen. I'm texting you anonymously to let you know that I heard James wants to have private investigator

22:57start following you and looking into every detail of your life. He wants them to reach out to your former employers, find all your social media accounts, your family social media accounts, videos of you, anything. They already have a Google doc listing possible ways to discredit you, including your own drugs and mental health problems, your mum is bipolar, you weren't obsessed superfan, you were crying begging to get your job back after they fired you, you tried sealing company funds, etc. I don't know what's true and what's not, but personally I really think you should just take everything down ASAP, if you take it down, they'll leave you alone, with Dorsen responding saying you're trolling. What? The tweet also contained a screen recording displaying some of the strange and deranged messages. Following this, Dorsen would also address the substance use allegations to make it clear that he was sober when recording the video, with everyone waiting to hear Mr. Beast's potential response. On the 4th of August 2024, he would upload a video titled Survive 100 Days in Nuclear Bunker, Win 500,000 Dollars. With the video not mentioning the recent controversy at all, viewers would flock to the comment section to express their thoughts on

24:00the allegations. However, whenever viewers seem to leave a negative or critical comment, it would seemingly instantly disappear, with several tweets being posted showing how fast they're being censored. This led many users to suspect the Mr. Beast team was deliberately censoring negative comments. Over time, YouTube creators like Upper echelon would conduct in-depth analysis into how and why the comment section was being altered and made some very shocking observations. This right here is the 36 hour period of time where the comment section of that latest video was scraped repeatedly and archived. Green is the total number of comments posted. Red is the total number of comments allowed to remain on the video actively. Over that one single 36 hour period from August 4th to midway through August 5th, over 26,000 comments were deleted at a consistent rate, as well as in two very large major batches. In addition, we can infer a couple of things from this graph, such as the usage of automatic filters, which would explain why the rate of new comments very suddenly drops off a cliff, also corroborated by showcasing the number of comments containing certain keywords over time.

25:04Since viewers couldn't leave critical comments, they'd simply dislike the video, which resulted in an estimated 2 million dislikes compared to just 4 million likes. But we'll talk about that again later. As you'd expect, Mr. Beast attempted to discredit this information by claiming there were only 37,000 dislikes on the video within the first few hours of release. Keemstar, after deleting a post about how many dislikes the video had received, allegedly showing footage directly from Mr. Beast about the real numbers. This footage, apparently from August 3rd to 4th, showed 3 million likes, but only 37,000 dislikes, which is actually lower than the entire channel average if you look at the typical ratio of 98.2 versus 98.8%. Keemstar firmly asserts that he was not lied to, he was not misled, and that he believes these numbers are fully accurate. But I would like to assert, in my opinion, that these numbers are in no way shape or form even close to accurate, especially when you consider and understand the full scope of what's going on behind the scene. Altering comments and

26:06obscuring dislikes was only the tip of the iceberg, as Mr. Beast and his team allegedly had gone back to edit out portions of previous videos to control the narrative. What's even more interesting is that if you go to an archived version of this video, you'll see that the length is 12 minutes and 48 seconds. However, the current version on the Mr. Beast channel is 10 minutes and 26 seconds. At roughly 9 minutes and 30 seconds in, as stated in the comments that were mass deleted, a portion of this video was cut out, that showed the team in a living room and on the wall, sure enough, is a shadman poster. The same poster that Ava Chris Tyson bragged about making a center piece of the living room. Mr. Beast went back to a video from 6 years ago. He deleted an entire month of comments as well as stealth edited a portion of the video out to hide things. By the 8th of August 2024, Dogpack uploaded the sequel to his initial expose a video on Mr. Beast, which brought forward even more damning allegations. So just before I get into my interrogation with former Mr.

27:06Beast and played Jake Weddle, a lot has happened since my last video. After posting it, I got hundreds of messages from former Mr. Beast employees and I had them all send proof of former employment. You know, just people showing their support or telling their stories of fake videos or unsafe practices, toxic workplace stuff like that. Dogpack would also claim Mr. Beast was very aware of the current clonch diversity and was planning to release a statement, but held back to see what else would be made public. I also have more serious allegations that I want to start covering. Also, I heard from a very credible source that Mr. Beast has been sitting on a response to part 1. Because he was worried if he posted it, I would instantly respond with part 2, you know, like a, like this is Kid's Bob Kendrick Lamarver's Drake. Also, I know Mr. Beast's secret CEO has been practically like harassing my people and you know, hey, what's in part 2? What, what does he know? So I will just tell you James what will be in part 3, so you don't have to harass my people. It will be about serious allegations of sexual misconduct in the company and your direct involvement

28:10in covering up those crimes. And I'll make sure to give you full credit and plaster your face all over the screen when we talk about that. While Dogpack wasn't able to discuss what happened with other Mr. Beast employees, he managed to interview a former employee named Jake Weddle. Who knew what Mr. Beast was like behind closed doors. So anyway, my interview with Jake Weddle, I chose to interview him because I thought he was perfect because he was both on camera and behind the scenes in 2019 and 2020. And also, what people don't know is that he came back in 2021 to be the sole contesting of a Mr. Beast video which never got uploaded because it went very badly. I also know about another portable document format who was working on Mr. Beast while actually on the registry. I'll get more into that story at the end of the video. At the start of the interview, Jake stated that he'd been featured in several challenges and that he was part of the Mr. Beast team long enough to witness their transformation from a small channel to a media giant. I'm Jake Weddle, most people who, if you know me from Mr. Beast, I'm a deep cut. I've been a few of the

29:12videos. Sometimes maybe purposefully kept to the shadows a little bit. I'm in the cut of room floor a lot of the time. But I've been in two videos. I've worked out a lot of them. I was there from 2019 to 2020, 2021, I showed when I came back and did some work. I was there when they were authentic and then I saw the transition to what I feel like is a company. He's like a TV show now. It went from given from YouTube or a guy with a camera to Amazon. Jake continued by highlighting toxic patterns in the company's work culture. Like employees being forced to say Mr. Beast's good side to avoid being mistreated and Mr. Beast's extremely controlling attitude. The culture around there was very unspoken but there was a vibe. There was half the people who, if you made Jimmy happy, you were on the good half. Then these people got random bonuses and we usually moved up, had more screen time. And then there was people who, if you had a disagreement or but head to the gym here, just he didn't like it. You know, you were the other half. And I consistently was in the half of the gym you did. He would have liked me. That's fine. I don't like him either. It's okay.

30:14Oh, that's just so good to say. I don't like Jimmy. I hate him so much. He didn't want anyone to get more popular or have more of a way out necessarily. Oh, I'm doing my twitch thing on the side. Don't do that because you could get famous and leave and talk about me negatively. And I could tell that the yes men were doing well and I was, you know, disgruntled. For quite some time. So I've talked to reporters, right? Like publicly. And I've always had to choose my words very, very carefully because I don't want to say anything I don't stand behind obviously. So I used to talk to people. I used to glaze Jimmy publicly for things I do. Generally, I think I'm true. But then it's like, well, how can we do talk about the recommendations? Well, I wanted to career. Things were allegedly so toxic that Jake and one of his co-workers were fired for simply asking for better compensation. I feel really guilty by the way. Just like, I was talking to the other writer. Like, just fucked up. You know that that's on the pay isn't. I want you to get paid more, you know, because you deserve to get paid more. I don't have a kid.

31:18And he didn't want to rock it though. He desperately didn't want to rock it though. He says, I like my job. I like my health because when you grow up with nothing, not to say that he did, but I know I did, you know, you get a little something. You don't want to lose it. So he won't rock it. But he said, hey, man, that's how you feel. You know, like if that's like, I trust you. You see, you see, you see, you went in that room, you went in that meeting with me. And I said, I said, my piece, you back me up. I said, I did XYZ or I'm out of here. And they said, bet. And they gave me a seven check the next day. And they gave him a seven check the next day. And if I knew, from Jake's perspective, Mr. Beath's generosity is extended to his workers, but only showing to people who can thank him on camera. I think Jimmy wants to be the best YouTuber. I think he is laser focused on one goal. And I think whatever he has to do to achieve that goal, he'll do. And I think it was the smartest decision for him that he calculated because he's very good numbers. If I donate to charity, people can't say, I'm shitty. While he didn't work for Mr. Beath

32:24anymore, Jake still had the chance to be part of certain videos. However, one challenge in particular didn't go as planned and cost Jake much more than a paycheck. If I didn't do many challenges in that, I got paid. I was in the club, the in with the rates and I would get paid and compensated for those. But there's one video I was in. I got paid a lot for it. But it didn't come out. It didn't come out because it didn't go well. There was a video that came out probably a year ago, some like that. It was the, it got a lot of hot water when it came out. It was the surviving like a $10,000 every day. He's trying to solitary or it's writing to solitary for whatever. It was, it was one of the solitary confinement videos that got a lot of media attention because everybody said the premise and thought, what? You shouldn't do that. And people don't know that was the second attempt. The first attempt was on me. And it didn't go well. According to Jake, Mr. Beath's team offered him a challenge lasting 100 days in solitary confinement,

33:28getting paid $10,000 per day. Despite the inherent risk it started with extended solitary confinement, Mr. Beath's team assured that it would be a fun experience and that proper safety measures were already in place. They're catching up like a, oh, at first it's going to be like a luxury vacation. You're going to have like a hot tub in your ice cream machine. And like part of the video is going to be you deciding like, what, what, what items am I going to get rid of? You know, today, and the other like the choice. They were like, it's only going to be bad for the last like five days tops when you have like nothing left. You're the first, it's going to be like a breeze for most of it. And by the end of it, after 30 days, you're going to get $300,000 because it's $10,000 a day. And I don't know, man. I grew up poor North Carolina. I said, excuse me. I'll y'all dance for you. If you put that kind of money in my face, sure. They were like, you're going to be locked in this room. And we got to make sure you're on all the time. We're going to have cameras on you all the time. And you're perfect for this because you never shut the fuck up. Unfortunately, things wouldn't go to plan. And Jake was left to deal with the consequences. And he got to a point where like, they weren't, they weren't turning the lights off. You know what,

34:32I asked them, I asked him, can we like have like night time hours? You know, they said no, because it would fuck up the time lapse shots. The time lapse of what? Me sleeping? I mean, not sleeping. Yeah, I saw in other videos they did a, like, oh, you're going to get the xyz hours of sunlight. Oh great. Why don't I have a freaking day? What up? I ain't have it. Even though Jake was battling sleep deprivation and uncomfortable living environment and exhaustion, allegedly, Mr. Beats was only concerned with getting a clip of how greatfully was to finally be able to pay his student's loans. Jimmy would come in like every other day for like an hour, you know, to check it on me because he's doing other stuff. You know, I'm just the guy in the cage over here. Look at that for me in a minute. Then so he'd come by, he'd get the shots, he'd leave. Sometimes he'd have a note of the director over the phone that would really kiss me off. This is a note I got from the director from Jimmy when I'm receiving some cash. He said, Jimmy said, can you say to the camera how thankful you are that now you can pay back your

35:36student loans? You know, hard it was to do a take of that. They pretend to make a genuine. The alleged damage done to Jake's mental health would become so apparent that even editors took note and were extremely concerned about his well-being. I'm like it a cage at his whim. And I have to do things to get the cash I need to live. And I got these cameras on me all the time. And I was unwell and editors coming up to me saying, you good bye? I was like, yeah, why? You're clearly unwell. And he goes, well, because the footage you're sending in is haunting. Because I'm trying to be funny, but I am mentally decaying. So I'm doing bits. Someone said there is a horror cut of a video in this. Sadly, this allegedly wasn't enough for Mr. Beast to care and told Jake to get ready to run a

36:39marathon. And he goes ask me why I have two briefcases. And I like, well, yeah, what do you have? Two briefcases. And he goes, oh, because this was once for today. And this one's for the challenge. And I got this challenge today. He goes, you're going to run a marathon. You're going to do 22.6K, whatever it is. And you're going to do it on that treadmill over there. Feeling pressured to keep the production going and no one to lose prize money, Jake gave in to Mr. Beast demands and got on the treadmill. And so I wanted to be a good sport and I wanted to get the boost and I wanted the cash. And so I started running at 12. I was able to take some breaks and I said, how long do I have? It goes until I get back. And I'm running until 3 a.m. All right, I got off the treadmill. Oh, the blisters I had on my feet were like, did you win the leaves all over just these big red?

37:44I couldn't walk my mud muscles were like just the lactic acid. I got off the treadmill and then the people who came into like ice on feet, you know, that show was good. Then that's when I was like, I can't, I'm done, I'm done, I'm done, I'm done, I'm out, I'm out, I'm out, I'm out. While Mr. Beast agreed to let him end the challenge early, he didn't let Jake go without making sure he wouldn't take legal action. Did everybody who was around me making sure I was good making sure I was okay? But Jimmy had his like, he was sitting in the chair, turned around like an evil villain. Where did God, everyone was looking at me and he was like a laks luthal over there. He turns around, he stands up. I did the just the exact same thing when he's pretending to have a human connection. As if rehearsed by his lawyers. Yeah, you know, he reminds of the most important thing, you know, this one makes you okay, last thing you want you to do is

38:44I can almost hear the words to come out of his mouth. The S, he just seems to stop and call it got out. If Jake's statements are true, then it's apparent that Mr. Beast is almost always hype and fixated on the goal of making a good video. And seemingly doesn't care about what he has to do to get there. This train of thought was only supported by the company's alleged stance on being told no when trying to film a video. When dealing with people outside Mr. Beast productions never take no at face value. If we need a store to buy everything inside of and you can call the local Dollar Tree, and the person that answers says no, you can't film here, that literally doesn't mean shit. Talk to other employees and see if they are fans or if any have kids that are fans. Try talking to their boss, their boss is boss, have me DM them on Twitter and try their social team. If all avenues are exhausted and you are left with a no, that doesn't mean don't try the other dollar trees because the manager of those could be huge fans and willing to bend the rules. Basically what I'm trying to convey is what we call pushing through no.

39:46Don't stop because one person told you no. Stop when all conceivable options are exhausted. When the topic of Avertisement situation came up, Jake Shedson's room is about a PDF working at the company. Was covering stuff up. You didn't want stuff to come out. You know, he's very careful at his image. You know, the tangible proof that he knew but covered it up. How do you prove that? You know, well there was a known sex offender. Registered sex offender convicted sex offender on the registry and everything. Who worked there. And like you can, you know, someone pees in public, you're on the registry, you know, you get it. You can slap a job after you're on the, that's not one, that's one thing. You go to prison, you get rehabilitated, that's one thing. You know, if you do your tire and that's fine, I think we should be read the rehabilitation in this country. But that guy, from what I hear, I can't confirm or deny what I hear, he's on the registry for doing some great stuff to some underage people.

40:50I then knew that. He's running out of channel that has underage people on and around and is targeted to underage people. When you consider the fact that the majority of Mr. Beast's audience are children, the possibility of a registered PDF being on set and in videos becomes too alarming to ignore. Stranger still, most of the Mr. Beast team were apparently aware of this and seemingly even made jokes about it. At the end of the interview, Dogpack presented an audio recording from another Mr. Beast employee that alleged that the Mr. Beast team is currently trying to cover up Delaware's record. Within 24 hours of Dogpack's video going live, it garnered over 7 million views and forced a response from someone who used to be on the Mr. Beast team, named Jake the Viking. In the Twitter post, Jake would acknowledge that Delaware was a registered PDF,

41:50but not only that, but also his brother-in-law. But that wasn't the full story. With the tweet reading, when he was 21, a 16 year old girl accused him and others of essay when she was 11, Delaware took a plea deal, but there was no jail time, but he still had to register. In addition to this, Jake stated the real reason his brother-in-law was given the name Delaware, reading, his nickname isn't Delaware because he can't go back to Delaware, his from Delaware, he's been back several times. Jake also stated that Jimmy knew about Delaware's record before hiring him, reading, before being hired, Delaware sat down with Jimmy and Sue, Jimmy's mom, and explained to them everything, so yes, Jimmy knew. But again, this incident happened in 2010, Delaware was hired in 2017-2018. According to Jake, the charges against Delaware wouldn't be an issue for much longer, and claimed he had never been a risk to children on or off set, reading, Delaware charges are said to be dropped to this fall. Heard in kids in any way is completely unacceptable, but in the case of Delaware, I firmly believe he did nothing wrong, and look forward to the day these charges are dropped. The fact that Mr. Beast hired a registered PDF file to work on content he makes

42:53targeted towards children was disturbing to everyone that read it, and with all the new allegations arising every single day, there seems to be a pattern in behaviour coming from Jimmy, a pattern of trying to cover up sensitive situations rather than acknowledge them publicly. On the 23rd of June 2024, Mr. Beast would launch a new version of his festival's chocolates in Australia, and announced a promotional campaign that offered by as a chance to win one of 10 cars. I just launched Beastivals in Australia, as you can tell by the Sydney Opera House, and to celebrate, we're giving random people that buy Beastables, this Lamborghini, and night other cars. That's a lot of cars! Right, laser beam? I'm just here because I'm Australian. No joke, all you have to do, just go to your local Woolworths, or any of these retailers in Australia, and buy a festival's bar. The promo would last from the 23rd to the 25th of June, with thousands of Australians participating in the event. In theory, this was a good way for Mr. Beast to expand his product into a new market, and build hyper on the brand. Unfortunately, things wouldn't go to plan, with many users facing technical issues with the mini-game meant to decide the winners.

43:54And I played your little game, and I won, and then you told me, won, won, won. And if you all don't believe me, I actually screenshot my game. Say, look, I won! But then you said, no! And whenever you shout to your team, they say, sorry for the miscommunication, you're not one of the registered winners. He has 10 free spins. 10 free spins? I'd rather take the car personally. And look, I found that I'm not the only one who's had this issue. There's actually been a lot of people on this app, and other app sharing their experiences, showing screenshots of them winning, and being told, sorry, not this time. So what's going on? Because I don't understand how we can play a game. Win, and we told we don't win. Eh? As the promo continued, even more consumer-shed videos of themselves lining up the slots, but not winning. Oh! What the fuck? This pattern of users not being registered as winners, despite winning the associated mini-game, would become so frequent that it made the local news. With a headline rating, Sydney Woman believed she'd won the Mr. Beast car. Only to be told there was an issue with her competition entry.

44:56However, once a dust had settled, and the prizes had been won, one of the winners decided to share what it was like to be part of the festival's promo. I think it was like the fifth spin, it said, you've won a car. It played a video. I need you to come to the Sydney Opera House right now so we can figure out which car is yours. You better hurry. What the fuck? I answered, and then it was Jimmy. Hey, how's it going? Did you buy a few tools for it? I did today. And you scanned the QR code on the background. I did, that was correct. Now, okay, congratulations. You have a lot of our 10 winners. Oh my god, dude. So in two days, I need you to meet me at the Sydney Opera House. Yup. I have a Lamborghini, I have Tesla's, I have nice cars. You're gonna compete against nine other people at the Sydney Opera House. Yup. And where you place, we'll decide whether you win the six-figure Lambo. I did it by... Bye. Oh my god! Although the contestants were randomly picked, the mini-game that users interacted with clearly had bugs that caused it to display invalid results,

45:56causing several users to believe they'd won a car. Obviously, with all these allegations piling up, things aren't looking good for Mr. Beast. And despite the alleged removal of comments and attempt to clean up the allegations, the comment section on Mr. Beast's recent video is still negative. With comments reading, address the allegations. We all miss to old Mr. Beast, as well as Mr. Beast is a villain now. Whilst it's likely Mr. Beast is uncancellable, due to how large his audiences, and how many of them wouldn't even know the allegations existed, it's safe to say the recent controversies have resulted in a huge hit in his reputation. And with his response being legal thruster silence people for speaking out, it seems like this will stain Mr. Beast's legacy moving forwards. Make sure you subscribe to stay updated on the situation.
