YouTube sensation Jimmy Donaldson, popularly known as MrBeast, recently opened up about his intense working hours. In a post on X, he revealed that he has been working around the clock and often sacrifices sleep to produce videos.
“I’m probably averaging 15 hours a day of filming this month and getting less sleep than I ever have in my life (I didn’t even get to go to bed last night), but my god, these videos are the greatest content I’ve ever filmed,” MrBeast wrote on X.
The post quickly went viral, racking up over four million views. While many fans hailed his passion for serving his subscribers the best content, others expressed concern about the impact on his well-being.
Bryan Johnson, the billionaire tech entrepreneur known as the ‘age-reversal’ CEO, reacted to the post with health advice.
“Jimmy, in time, you’ll transition into making content battling the ideas of society. Be sure to properly nourish yourself now so that you’re sufficiently vibrant and durable then,” Johnson wrote.
