YouTube star Jimmy ‘MrBeast’ Donaldson continued to spread his wealth in his latest video, offering $10,000 to strangers if they would eat a Ghost Pepper and even creating his own game show.
MrBeast is well-known for the insane sums of money he offers people to take part in his crazy challenges, or even on occasions where he is just feeling generous.
The YouTuber’s incredible gestures have lead to him collaborating with some of the platform’s biggest stars, such as hosting PewDiePie’s Meme Review and hosting an IRL YouTube Battle Royale.
The 21-year-old was creating challenges for the general public once again, handing out $10,000 for simply eating what seemed to be ghost chilli peppers.
Many of the participants found themselves struggling to ingest the pepper initially, scared of the potential agony that it would bring them. After taking a bite and chewing for a moment, it became clear that it wasn’t a ghost pepper after all, much to their relief, and were delighted to hear that they would still receive the $10,000 prize as a reward for their bravery.
“Yeah so those weren’t real, normally YouTubers would make them eat real ghost peppers but we don’t like torturing people.”

MrBeast continued to go around offering people more money to take part in his challenges, even inviting an audience to his custom-made game show which was setup with a wheel of tasks and cash prizes which he referred to as “Wheel of Beast.”
The contestants faced a wide variety of challenges ranging from ringing ex girlfriends in front of the audience and playing games of “Rock, Paper, Scissors,” to a more extreme challenge in squeezing lemon juice in their eyes.
As with many of MrBeast’s videos, his latest offering has already reached over 10 million views in just a couple of days, with his audience eager to see what he will pull off next.
