I love how in 2023, the heroes we need are people like Mr. Beast and Kitboga.


What makes Mr Beast a hero?


Not the parent, but I presume they are referring to his philanthropy.


Entertain my audience and make me $1 million and I'll give you $500k philanthropy?


His philanthropy channel has millions of views on each video with 100% of the advertisement revenue, brand deals, and merchandise sales donated to charity. He also runs a non-profit that does charity work.

I'm not here to convince anyone that he's a hero (or not). I just think his philanthropy is what the original comment was referring to.

>make me $1 million and I'll give you $500k philanthropy?

Even if it was just the equivalent of donating half his earnings, that's significantly more than I think most people do.


I've heard he donates a lot to charity.
