I agreed after watching Will Osman's video last year since Mr Beast was in it a few times, but watching this one Mr Beast didn't meet with the dude once even to say thank you?

I have to imagine he didn't get paid other than "exposure" (which is admittedly probably worth something from Mr Beast) so it feels a little scummy for the person who's getting rich to not give at least a little in person acknowledgement to the folks doing all the work behind the scenes.



I'm happy with the way things turned out. Obviously can't disclose detail on our arrangement, but I'll say there was nothing scummy here. I just hope the MrBeast org can get to a phase where they have more time for planning out any video requiring technical integration.


The 'struggle' and the lack of time is implicit in the entertainment value of watching what unfolds. I'd argue most of this type of content is specifically geared towards dramatising what should otherwise just be planned accordingly with a decent producer.

These folks are smarter than smart when it comes to gamifying the human psyche.


You imagine the terms and then conclude scum! Nay so quick.
