MrBeast has ended PewDiePie’s reign as the YouTuber with the most subscribers.
Swedish creator PewDiePie, whose real name is Felix Kjellberg, became the most-subscribed YouTuber in August 2013 with his gaming reaction videos.
In 2019, he was the first person to attract 100 million subscribers.
But the philanthropy of MrBeast really called Jimmy Donaldson, gained him his 112 millionth subscriber this month.
Although YouTube does not show the exact numbers, that pushed him above PewDiePie’s 111 million.
