Trivia / MrBeast

• Acting for Two:
  • In the Spanish dub. Diego Becerril voices both Nolan and Drake Bell, the latter of which appearing in "I Spent 50 Hours in Solitary Confinement".
  • In the Spanish dub of "Ages 1-100 Fight For $500,000", Paco Mauri voices both players 72 and 94.
• Actor-Shared Background: For his video on Squid Game in real life, numbers that belonged to main characters in the show were assigned to contestants who best matched the character. For example, 001 (Il-nam) was given to the eldest man in the game, 067 (Sae-byeok) was given to a woman who bore some resemblance to the character and 456 (Gi-hun) was given to an Asian American.
• Approval of God:
  • Jimmy really enjoys people's videos talking about his rise on YouTube.
  • Squid Game creator Hwang Dong-Hyuk has praised MrBeast's Squid Game video, saying that he found it very funny and that he appreciated the additional exposure for his show.
• Creator Backlash:
  • Jimmy is evidently no longer a fan of his Worst Intros series, possibly considering it mean-spirited and a far cry from his present-day public image, and has wiped all uploads related to it from his channel.
  • He's also grown less fond of MrBeast Burger as time has passed, due to the lack of quality control at many locations and the brand's "ghost kitchen" concept allowing them to evade accountability. In September 2023, he sued the company in charge of the brand over this in hopes of icing MrBeast Burger entirely.
• Cross-Dressing Voices: In the Japanese dub, Junko Takeuchi voices Jimmy, for the sole reason that he's a massive fan of Naruto.
• Keep Circulating the Tapes:
  • What used to be Jimmy's most prominent series, Worst Intros on YouTube, was taken down near the beginning of 2018, and the only way to watch it now is by re-uploads from other YouTubers.
  • Jimmy's video of him giving 100,000 roses for Valentine's Day to his girlfriend at the time, Maddy Spidell, has now been unlisted from YouTube, seemingly due to the couple breaking up and the video upsetting Jimmy's new girlfriend, Thea Booysen.
• No Dub for You:
  • While a bunch of videos from before Jimmy started making audio tracks in other languages ended up getting a dub later, videos past a certain age were discarded for translation.
  • Certain videos on Jimmy's gaming channel are only dubbed in a handful of languages (Turkish is the most consistent, often being the only other language option). This is most likely due to them being cheaper to produce in comparison to languages like French, Spanish and Japanese.
  • Videos on Jimmy's reaction channel and gaming channel do not recieve dubs in Japanese at all. Again, this is probably due to Japanese voice actors being much more expensive than ones in other countries.
• The Other Darrin: In the Latin American Spanish dub:
  • Luis Daniel Ramírez was replaced by Rodo Balderas as Jimmy, due to economic disputes between the former and the dubbing studio.
  • In the gaming channel's Spanish dubs, Chandler is voiced by Alberto Bernal, whereas in some redubs he is instead voiced by Alexis Ortega. The latter half of 2023 would see Bernal come back to the role for good, however.
• Role Reprise: In the Latin American Spanish dub:
  • Octavio Rojas returns to dub Gordon Ramsay after doing so already in Gordon Ramsay: Uncharted.
  • Gerardo Vásquez voices Dwayne Johnson, as he did in Hercules (2014).
  • A variation occurs with Juan Guzmán, who returns as the French Narrator from SpongeBob SquarePants, and Mario Filio, who returns as the voice of young Obi-Wan Kenobi from the Star Wars prequels during a quick "Hello, there!" gag in Among Us With 100 Real Players!, that in both cases, it's simply reused audio from their respective works' Latin American Spanish dub.
• Translation Correction:
  • In Can You Beat Fall Guys Without Jumping?!, Jimmy erroneously states that in "Door Dash", the correct doors are an inch higher than the others, when in reality they were an inch shorter. The Spanish dub corrects this.
  • In World's Fastest Car!, Jimmy says that whoever comes in first place gets four pounts, and whoever comes in second gets three, when he actually meant to say three and two points, respectively. The Brazilian Portuguese and French dubs corrected the error.
• What Could Have Been:
  • In this video, Jimmy talks about videos he couldn't upload, and why. These include:
    • Colliding cars into objects (The climax of the video wasn't satisfying)
    • Last To Leave Glue challenge (The pit of glue didn't stick together, collapsing)
    • Visiting the Seven Wonders of the World (Jimmy lost his camera on the plane and couldn't find another one)
    • World's Longest String of Dominoes (They couldn't pull it off properly, and was too boring)
    • Creating a dog paradise (It turned out it was actually illegal for them house a bunch of dogs like that)
    • Breaking world records with Cam Newton (Couldn't break enough to make the video worthwhile. Interestingly, Cam Newton himself uploaded part of it.)
    • Creating a city out of bouncy castles (Was too absurd even for Jimmy)
    • A sequel to Walking Into Random Stores With 100 Dinosaurs (Jimmy got sick halfway through; they were going to redo it, but everyone took their dinosaur costumes with them)
  • As shown in this video by YouTuber FitMC, there were plans to shoot a video for the Gaming channel on the popular Minecraft anarchy server 2b2t. Immediately after joining, word quickly spread of the group's arrival and the playerbase did everything in their power to hunt them down and crash the server, as the exposure given by a video from a creator of his size would cause a lot more players to join the server, filling up the queue to the point of unplayability. Due to this and an incredibly toxic reaction from the server's community, the video was eventually cancelled.
• Word of God: Allegedly, the real reason the Japanese audio tracks took so long to release was because Jimmy really wanted his voice to be provided by a high-profile seiyuu, citing the cast of Naruto as an example of what he was aiming for. As it turns out, this was a very literal example on his part, as his Japanese voice ended up being that of Junko Takeuchi, the actual voice of Naruto.
