@v1lyr the team already tested out a few thumbnails that showed just him and the kid with cancer when the video first released
i assume the thumbnails lost in the A/B test against the thumbnail with the celebrities
so, either way, the video would've performed bad

@jasperdevs@MrBeastInsights the account you attached doesn't have an email put anywhere on their channel.
it would be impossible for mrbeast to reach out to them.
@NFTsOVO@MrBeastInsights No.
A more realistic answer would be about $4.5-5.5 million a month.
About 90% of his monthly views right now are from shorts.
He gets about 600-700 million long-form monthly views, which definitely isn't enough for $24 million.
@javiier61_@MrBeastInsights The API updates almost instantly, which means it updates in near real time on all devices.
For more evidence, we got his YT earnings from a 2023-2024 court document, and they paint a completely different picture.
Keep in mind that his long-form views have gone down since then.
@ThePudyTat@MrBeastInsights@MrBeast There was very obviously an effect. After the redline is when the controversy was at its peak.
You can see the likes starting to decline after it.
MrBeast's subscriber count also dropped by a few thousand every time he uploaded for a couple of months.
@ThePudyTat@MrBeastInsights About 50/50. The decline first started in late 2024 from the Dogpack404 controversy.
There was a change made to the algorithm in late 2025 that impacted all big channels, including MrBeast.
The decline first started from the controversy, which the algorithm only made it worse.
In terms of 30-day longform view growth, the channel gained over 1.15B longform views in August 2025. This was just a sudden spike of growth. The channel seems to normally get 600M-800M longform views/month.
So to claim "the channel is down 50%" is technically correct... but ONLY if you go from the channel's recent peak performance and compare it to the baseline. An intentionally misleading stat meant to rile people up.
@ashnichrist@MrBeastInsights@MrBeast the mrbeast team usually moves the main channel livestreams to the mrbeast 2 side channel.
though, i wouldn't be surprised if they don't do it this time since it's kinda connected to a main channel video.
my current theory is they'll just chop it up and upload it to mrbeast 2.
@LaughingSurrey@LyonSayan@MrBeastInsights way too high. about 7-8 million dollars a month based off 2024 public court documents.
could be more or less now, but it's a close estimate.
@LyonSayan@MrBeastInsights no, its not why the extension was removed.
his estimates are miles off as well. he does not make $98m off youtube per month. that is just far from correct.
