Famous YouTuber Jimmy Donaldson, also known widely as MrBeast has recently claimed the record for most subscribers gained in a week during 2022, without even trying to gun for it. MrBeast has a lot of records and milestones already reached during 2022 such as finally getting the Red Button like Felix ‘PewDiePie' Kjellberg with 100 million subscribers. He has actually surpassed PewDiePie and now in the 4th position of most subscribed channel, following channels like T-Series, SET India, and Cocomelon. As an individual content creator, MrBeast is definitely the highest and have already surpassed the Youtube king himself, PewDiePie.

MrBeast's videos generate a lot of views by the use of the concept of virality where viewership is generated by people's interest in watching his videos. In this case, he is using the method of giving out tons of opportunities for his subscribers to participate in his video and a chance to win a handful of prizes, in forms of cash or luxuries. He has done every fun thing possible and imaginable in large scale productions like playing hide and seek in a theme park or buying and giving out a private island, as well as getting crazy as recreating the Squid Game games for people to experience. Another year has passed and his channel just keeps on growing by the second.

According to PwnyyGaming, a Twitter account that tracks YouTube analytics including subscribers, MrBeast’s is currently leading in channel growth than the 2nd highest in most subscribed channel, which is Cocomelon. In his recent report, MrBeast has a daily growth rate of 6 fold than Cocomelon's channel. This indicates that MrBeast might eventually overtake Cocomelon into taking its spot as the number 2 most subscribed channel in Youtube.

In addition to this, MrBeast's main channel just broke the record of having the highest known weekly total across all of YouTube in 2022 with a whopping 3,188,959 subscribers for the week of December 12-18. This will further secure his spot in the top channels on the platform, and would eventually overtake most of its competition in no time. MrBeast's videos also do not fall under 1 million views unlike most of the top channels now, which is also a good measurement for them to have. This will indicate their concurrent viewership in each video, which would then have more interest with their future creations. More people would then subscribe because of all the interesting and fun videos they would release.
