James Stephen Donaldson, famously known as MrBeast, the renowned YouTuber with over 236 million subscribers, has been spotted in the south of Croatia where he is reportedly filming a new video.
MrBeast has been filming one of his high-production videos in the Kupari area lately, took some time to explore the city and engage in a workout.
As Dubrovački dnevnik reported, access to the ruined complex in Kupari has been restricted due to the ongoing filming by MrBeast’s crew. The anticipated video is expected to garner millions of views on YouTube, further promoting the city of Dubrovnik.
Although MrBeast has not disclosed the nature of his filming around Dubrovnik, it is sure to provide excellent exposure for the city.
Kupari, a village which is part of the Župa dubrovačka area, is home to the Kupari Tourist Complex, a disused military tourist resort which were severely damaged during the Croatian War of Independence.
Dubrovački dnevnik exclusively reported today that the YouTube star took some time to explore the city and engage in a workout at the Saiyan Gym in Lapad, just outside of the Old Town of Dubrovnik with his friend Shawn Hendrix, the winner of last year’s MrBeast challenge, “Survive 100 Days In Circle, Win $500,000.”
The 25-year-old began creating YouTube videos at the age of 13, with his breakthrough occurring in 2017 when a video of him counting to 100,000 went viral, securing his future in the platform. Today, his team consists of an incredible 250 individuals, and the quality of his videos is top-notch.
With over 236 million subscribers, MrBeast tops the list of individual channels with the highest number of subscribers and ranks second overall in terms of subscribers among all YouTube channels.
