Jimmy Donaldson started YouTube at 13; years later the channel turned into a $5 billion business

Jimmy Donaldson started uploading YouTube videos as a 13-year-old in Eastern North Carolina. Years of low-view uploads, intense YouTube analysis and aggressive reinvestment helped turn MrBeast into a massive media and business operation. From viral challenges and Feastables to Beast Mobile, Step and Beast Games, Donaldson’s channel became the foundation of Beast Industries, now valued at roughly $5.2 billion.
