A stunt man doing stunt man things? Lame
How is he still active? Who is supporting this shitstain? Christ, the world is doomed.
Disclaimer: I hate this guy and all the stupid things he did in the past.
I don’t understand the issue here. Assuming what he is telling regarding the safety features are true, this is not more dangerous than a stunt scene in a movie. If they had hired someone who is not a professional stunt man, I would classify this as ‘dangerous’. But I can’t really see the issue of shooting a ‘stunt scene’ with professionals, just like any action movie will do.
That said, I think this is just manufactured outrage, which will create more views for that video. Probably thile response to the video was underwhelming, and they wanted to drive up the views to ensure revenue.
Yeah the actual production here is us now talking about it. And well, the rest of the internet. The wanker is not stupid, I give him that. He must have known that just filming stunt scenes isn’t good for clicks, but this is.
I was thinking the same thing. Sounds like they did exactly what any studio would do in a regular shoot.
I’ve not watched the thing itself, but between the article and the screenshot the issue seems to be how it’s presented.
It’s not that the guy is actually in danger, it’s that the content being made and the way it’s framed is at best dishonest, and at worst promotes extremely dangerous behaviour to kids (who are very much his main audience).
It’s unlikely that something with this kind of messaging would be allowed on regular TV, but because YouTube’s approach to safe programming is pretty much arbitrary it’s down to old fashioned journalism like this to flag up harmful shit like this.
May you live in stupid times.
(Sorry, it’s just infinitely applicable these days.)
Yeah, YouTube recommended that video and I gave a fucking pass. I have no interest in watching a paid professional act like a desperate contestant degrading themselves for this dipshit’s billionaire’s petty cash.
hes a billionaire! from what what did he do for all this money
The same thing every billionaire did: He took it from other people.
I guess he realised he fares better as a psychopath rather than a philanthropist?
Who is Mr beast ? ,never mind don’t care .
this guy is extremely dangerous and will do anything for viral videos
“MrBeast tries to justify attempted murder” FTFY
Did you read the article?
No, just the headline
Then you didnt FTFY
You caught me
Oh shit!
Uh, now what
Sociopaths aren’t concerned about the safety of others.
he fucking what?
What a nice desensitized road we’re going down
Stop giving this leech attention. This headline is manufactured for attention.
This has ‘Late Late Breakfast Show’ vibes. Those around in the 80’s in the UK will probably remember the Noel Edmond’s variety show, a precursor to Noel’s House Party. They had members of the public do stunts. There were regular concerns about safety and eventually someone died.

Let’s hope he won’t have his own Michael Lush or Jean Pormanove. It’s not unlikely, though
