MrBeast is currently the most subscribed content creator on the Google-owned video sharing platform. As such, it is no surprise that the YouTuber's challenge-based videos garner tens of millions of views every year.

However, this was not always the case, as showcased by MrBeast in his X post, according to which he garnered just a few thousand views at one point when uploading on YouTube as a teenager.

He started his journey when he was just twelve years old. MrBeast wrote:
