MrBeast does it again. Jimmy’s video on Extreme Olympics has dropped and what a massive undertaking it must have been!.
MrBeast announced only days ago that he’s planning to invite one subscriber from every country to his own special event that was rumored to be even bigger than his Squid Games video. Now, it seems that the rumors were indeed true. In the MrBeast Olympics, one country pulled an epic win at the last moment to win the $250,000 gold medal prize.
MrBeast’s video has already garnered close to 7 million views on YouTube, in less than two hours after being uploaded, and we can certainly see why!
MrBeast’s insane Extreme Olympics
MrBeast is easily one of the biggest streamers and content creators right now. From humble beginnings, Jimmy and his friends have come a long way. His recreation of the Willie Wonka Chocolate Factory still remains one of the most fan-beloved videos ever. With so many achievements, MrBeast claimed before that the pressure of continuously coming up with new ideas can become overwhelming. His Extreme Olympics video seems to push imaginative boundaries even further as MrBeast once again redefines what can fall under the scope of creating engaging videos.
For his latest video, Jimmy flew in his fans from all over the world, one subscriber from each country. These people took part in a series of challenges with the aim to win a $250,000 gold medal. For the first round, players had to race to the finish line within a specified time frame. In that round itself, 98 countries were eliminated with the other 97 moving on to the next challenge. The second round faced the survivors with an epic gymnastics challenge that caught many off guard and 50 more countries got eliminated in this round.
The next challenge tested players’ archery skills. For this round, some players got the option to make the game difficult for one country of their choice. Indonesia got the maximum number of votes against it which ended Indonesia’s hopes to win the gold medal. 31 countries in total fell off the track in total in the third round. Before the next round of fencing, players were given the choice of walking away with $10,000 or proceeding to the next round. Italy and Fiji decided to throw in the towel at this point and go home with the cash.
The unlikely country achieves the unthinkable
After the archery challenge, the remaining 2 countries were pitted against each other in a simple competition of scoring goals in a soccer-style shootout. While the challenge seemed pretty basic, the parameters became more and more tougher with each step. Slovenia and Libya faced off in an epic game of shoot-out. Libya had the final laugh as Slovenia completely misjudged a shot and took a dive in the wrong way.
Libya’s win saw the participant being crowned as the Extreme Olympics Winner and the fan couldn’t hold back his excitement. The $250,000 gold medal looked gorgeous around his neck. The onlookers seemed equally elated to see the most deserving player win.
