Email: thesocialmediamogul@gmail.com Two years ago, Jimmy Donaldson was filming videos of himself on his iPhone 5 in his bedroom, today the 21-year-old from North Carolina runs one of the fastest growing YouTube channels in history. In fact, every single video Mr. Beast has uploaded in 2019 has over 10 million views. Something no one before him has achieved The first factor I want to highlight is how Mr Beast has turned himself into a viral video making machine. Mr Beast has truly cracked the viral formula which allows him to make video after video that get onto the trending page. So, what is his secret? Now of course, it’s not just as easy as that. Making videos that have the potential to go viral and going viral are two different things. How is anyone going to know your video is a viral hit in the making if no-one sees it, and that brings us on to factor number 2, Mr. Beast is beating the YouTube algorithm. Ok so onto the final two points, these are going to be much less detailed but equally as important so make sure to stick around. Factor #3 is the fact that Mr Beast understands the importance of the growth stage. I want to finish up with the final point, Mr beast has proven Positivity can win on YouTube. I think sometimes it’s easy to view youtuber’s negatively. However, Mr beast is a perfect example that by being a genuine, positive and likable person, you can still rise to the very top of this platform. #mrbeast

How to steal it

setting · outdoor city
  1. 01
    Hook (0-2s)

    Open cold on outdoor city. Sound on. Visual question in the first frame.

    Brickell · Roll camera before you arrive at Brickell Ave at golden hour or Biscayne Blvd south of 5th. The reveal IS the hook.

  2. 02
    Set the frame (2-4s)

    Establish outdoor city with your hero prop. Wide on the 16mm so the GT3 RS sells the scale.

    Brickell · Keep the prop count to 1. More props = more cuts = lower retention.

  3. 03
    Payoff (4-9s)

    Use direct to camera rant to deliver the rewatch moment. One idea, one take.

    Brickell · Cut on the reaction, not the line. If it's a price reveal, hold the number on screen for 1.5s.

  4. 04
    Reaction / proof (9-13s)

    Show the consequence. Bystander head-turn, valet face, on-screen receipt — whatever makes the payoff feel real.

    Brickell · Casa Tua and Komodo valets are cinematic. E11even paddock for nightlife crowd. Hard Rock paddock during F1 weekend = prebuilt audience.

CTA / outro (13-15s)

Implicit beats explicit. Let the caption + pinned comment ask. End on the asset, not your face.

Brickell · Tag @imalexgunnar in the caption. Pin the objection comment within 60s of posting.

Where in Miami
  • Gas station · Shell SW 8th + Brickell Ave (24/7, premium pump, clean lighting).
  • Valet · Casa Tua, Komodo, E11even — pull-up + handoff is the cinematic moment.
  • Penthouse · Flow Brickell roof or your unit. Skyline backdrop reads premium.
  • Track / paddock · Hard Rock paddock during F1 weekend = pre-built audience.
  • Cold start · Brickell Ave south of 8th at 6:30am — empty street, hard light.
