MrBeast is taking his big-money giveaways to Amazon Prime. The reality competition show, Beast Games, is going to award a winner $5M in cash—said to be “the largest single payout ever in TV history.” A big reason MrBeast is doing this is to show others that YouTubers and creators can succeed on other platforms, not only where they first started, while also giving money to those who may have debts to pay off. The show will feature 1K contestants competing for the cash prize and will be hosted by Jimmy Donaldson (MrBeast) as he’ll also serve as the executive producer. (Variety)
