Content creator MrBeast’s channel has become the most popular YouTube channel in the world, with over 269 million subscribers; see the top 10
The list of channels with the most subscribers in Youtube has a new leader: the content creator MrBeast last Saturday (1st) reached more than 269 million subscriptions on the video platform and surpassed the profile of Indian record label T-Series on the platform. It is the first time that the American YouTuber has taken the initiative.
MrBeast celebrated the event on his account on X (ex Twitter): posted his subscriber count and said he had “avenged” the YouTuber PewDiePie — The Swedish creator launched a massive campaign to surpass T-Series in 2019, but it never achieved enough success.
The arrival in first place was accompanied by a new video on the channel, in which MrBeast leaves two participants in the jungle and gives a prize of 100 thousand US dollars (about R$ 500 thousand, in direct conversion at the current rate) for each on the day is survived there. Shortly after the upload, the YouTuber commented that he received more than 2 million subscribers in just 24 hours, a record for the channel.
The feat is notable because the top spot has always been dominated by channels linked to companies or record labels, as in the case of T-Series, which is responsible for numerous Bollywood clips on YouTube. MrBeast became the most popular content creator on the platform in 20202, when it reached 111.8 million followers, but at the time it was still the fourth most popular overall.

Who is MrBeast
Jimmy Donaldson was born in 1998 in Wichita, USA, and has been creating content on YouTube since 2012 under the name MrBeast. Initially she talked about games or satirized other channels on the platform, until she started having success with challenges.
MrBeast became famous for posting very long challenges, such as watching paint dry for 24 hours or counting to 100,000 without stopping, and for donating much of the money obtained to institutions. Currently, the channel focuses on huge challenges that involve large sums of money, such as spending days inside a clubhouse, protecting a yacht, and even recreating games from the series.
