Overview

DogPack404's MrBeast Exposé Videos refers to a series of videos by YouTuber and ex-MrBeast employee DogPack404 titled, "I Worked For MrBeast, He's A Fraud" and "I Worked For MrBeast, He's A Sociopath," in which the YouTuber shares several expository allegations about content creator MrBeast. In the first video, released in July 2024, DogPack404 claims that MrBeast's company rigged some videos, held illegal lotteries and faked his signature on some shirts he gave away during a stream. The video was met with some criticism, as well as widespread discourse and memes. In early August 2024, DogPack404 released a second video, which is largely an interview with another ex-MrBeast employee, Jake Weddle, who discusses the trauma he received from working on an unreleased MrBeast video. At the end of the video, they allege that MrBeast had a man known as "Delaware" who was on the sex offender registry for inappropriate conduct with a minor working for the company. The video inspired significant reactions across social media.

Background

"I Worked For MrBeast, He's A Fraud" Video

On July 24th, 2024, YouTuber[1] and ex-MrBeast employee DogPack404 posted a video exposé on MrBeast titled "I Worked For MrBeast, He's A Fraud," garnering over 11 million views in two weeks (shown below).



In the video, DogPack404 claims that MrBeast "rigged videos, held illegal lotteries and faked signatures." He begins the exposé by explaining that MrBeast knows his audience is children and showing clips of MrBeast admitting to this, then explains how MrBeast's content strategy entices children to watch his content by making them think he could give them money or free things.

DogPack404 shows several clips of MrBeast claiming his videos aren't fake on podcasts, then rattles through numerous examples of allegedly fake content in MrBeast videos, including CGI stunts, actors and claims that some of the contestants are secret MrBeast employees. He says, "in general, if something happens at the last second, it's probably fake." He then reiterates that MrBeast also fakes some of the outcomes of the challenges, not just "plot points" of the videos.

DogPack404 calls out MrBeast for his calls-to-action under videos in which he offers viewers the possibility of a prize or free giveaway if they subscribe, like, etc. DogPack404 considers some of these "illegal lotteries," such as a livestream in which MrBeast encouraged viewers to buy signed shirts for the chance to win other prizes, including money. He also claims that, during at least one shirt giveaway stream, MrBeast did not give the prizes he claimed along with the shirts to everyone who bought the shirts during the prize timeframe. DogPack404 then shows a clip in which it appears a MrBeast employee is faking MrBeast's signature on a shirt.

DogPack404 then shows a clip of MrBeast's manager claiming that he had to convince MrBeast not to sign up to promote a known scam "loot box" site. He then criticizes MrBeast's Feastables chocolate bars and Beast Burger franchises for their quality and how he advertises them. He also suggests that it wasn't random that a "YouTuber with 700,00 subscribers," DELA VLOGS, won one of the "golden tickets" given away in the Feastables chocolate bars for a limited time.

He then shows clips of MrBeast talking about the dangers of obesity and sugar contrasted with him selling his chocolate and promotional Zaxby's meals, calling MrBeast out for pretending to care about his viewers' health. He reiterates that MrBeast does not use the phrasing "no purchase necessary" with many of his prize giveaways, which further, purportedly, makes some of his giveaways illegal lotteries.

Developments

The first video was met with mixed reactions online, with some criticizing the points made by DogPack404. For example, on July 29th, 2024, X[2] user @chucky, who runs the "MrBeast Ideas & Thumbnails Team" according to his bio, made a post refuting some of the points in the exposé, garnering over 40,000 likes in a week (shown below, click to expand).

In the post, Chucky claims that he fired DogPack404 for "erratic behavior" and that he only worked there for less than a month, writing that he "wasn't an employee for most of the videos he mentions to have knowledge on." He refutes the idea that portions of videos are fake, writing, "this is not true and I was on set for many of these videos."

Specifically, Chucky refutes the use of CGI in several of DogPack404's examples, claims MrBeast does not only hire friends and family for his videos, and refutes the claim that MrBeast's "100 boys vs 100 girls" video is fake and that there was a bias towards the winner and that the giveaways are fake, writing, "We do not fake giveaways, I have been hands on with some of them and have personally been the person to connect winners with our accounting department to get paid. You also suggested we didn’t spend $1,000,000 on Samsung phones and I can assure you we did."

Ultimately, Chucky suggests that DogPack404 is running largely on unprovable assumptions regarding the claims in his videos.


chucky ❤ v @chucky ... I quickly want to debunk some of the info in this video since the guy who made it was on my team. It was my decision to fire him for erratic behavior, he worked at the company for less than a month and wasn't an employee for most of the videos he mentions to have knowledge on. There's so much in his video and I want to specifically address him saying our videos are fake or staged because this is not true and I was on set for many of these videos. "you wont get in a video unless your family or friends with someone that works at beast" This is a wild statement that can easily be proven wrong, there's probably hundreds or thousands of people who have no affiliation to friends/family of beast employees. Think the 456 people in squid game, or ages 1 - 100, etc. Jimmy doesn't know more then like a dozen people lol "The train track was CGI, the bus wheels are CGI, the pit is fake" He acts like he's exposing us for using CGI to make backgrounds look cool when we have done multiple public behind the scenes videos with sokrispy showing this. It's clearly not a secret. On top of that, we did drive buses in that pit and same with the train that you claim we didn't. "The raccoon was a paid actor" I dont even know what to say about this, clearly not a actor lol "Island cost more than a dollar" Not true, we did pay $1 for this island. You can google "MrBeast purchases Outer Banks island for $1" which stated this before the video was released. "He moved into a mansion 2 months before being in a video. A million dollar mansion" He talks about how 2 months before we filmed the first Mack video that he moved into a mansion, mack was staying at a friend's house and I'm not sure how that proves anything or why it's relevant. "This wink was added in post" Bruh he really did wink, this is a flat out lie again "The revenge storyline was added in post" He implies 42 and 58 was scripted and not real. The contestants themselves have talked about this on streams they did after the video. They legit didn't like each other. He also claimed "58 was on the far opposite side and didn't hear him" Just because he was on the other side of the room you don't think 58 heard him yell? How on earth would he know? "Not only were the results of this video completely scripted but the contestants are not random subscribers" He claims our 100 boys vs 100 girls video is scripted and the proof is a random text saying it is? That's it? It was not scripted. Jimmy probably had countless people on set for that video and it would have been impossible to hide. This video was not scripted. I was on set for this and there was no bias for who won. He also implies the video is fake because we have some employees on each team. The employees in the video were there to fill in for people who tested positive for covid last minute right before filming. Thea (jimmy gf) mentioned this on a podcast over a year ago. If it wasn't for Covid they would have not been in it. They had the same $ on the line as everyone else. Some random text of someone "thinking" it was rigged doesnt mean its rigged lol He also suggested the real time video was fake. This is not fake, it was a nightmare to make this video and it was legit filmed in 10 minutes. "Also i think some of the mrbeast giveaways are fake" We do not fake giveaways, I have been hands on with some of them and have personally been the person to connect winners with our accounting department to get paid. You also suggested we didn't spend $1,000,000 on Samsung phones and I can assure you we did. Another lie from you. I could keep going but I don't want this to be to long. Dawson himself said on Reddit that he was on shrooms and weed when filming this video which might explain some of the made up stuff. Dawson was only employed from March 25th 2024 and was let go on April 19th 2024. He was on a 90 day trial and we ended it early and paid him out to June 25th as we guaranteed the 90 days of pay so he could transition into a new job. I'd appreciate it if everyone reading this could help dispel all this fake rumors by spreading this info. Jimmy spends unfathomable amounts of money and time to ensure the integrity of what he does and I hate to see it come into question with a bunch of lies. Dawson, if you leave this up then you're a hypocrite.

"I Worked For MrBeast, He's A Sociopath" Video

On August 7th, 2024, DogPack404 released his second exposé video on MrBeast to YouTube,[3] titled, "I Worked For MrBeast, He's A Sociopath," garnering over 4 million views in under 24 hours. The video begins by parodying the style of iDubbbz's Content Cop series (seen below).



The video begins with an interview with Jake Weddle, another former MrBeast employee. Weddle says he was there from 2019 to 2020 and worked for MrBeast again in 2021. Weddle was featured in some MrBeast videos. He begins by speaking on the company's culture, claiming that MrBeast treated his "yes men" better and that he didn't want anyone getting more popular than him.

Weddle claims that, in MrBeast's video "Destroying My Friend's Car And Surprising Him With A New One," [4] in which MrBeast places a rock on top of Weddle and another friend's cars and then replaces the cars, Weddle faked his reaction to the rock. He claims he also called his mom and told her to have a big reaction to the video in which Weddle calls her and tells her about the destroyed car. Weddle then complains about his salary and claims that he left in regard to salary disputes.

Weddle then cries while telling a story about how another writer for MrBeast, a "younger Black kid," was getting paid less to do the same job. Weddle claims he felt guilty about it and told him he deserved a higher pay, but the kid didn't want to rock the boat. Weddle and the other employee eventually decided to ask for higher pay and both were fired. He says he regrets that and feels guilty that the employee got fired.

Weddle then talks about a video that didn't come out because it "didn't go well." The video involved being locked in solitary confinement for 100 days at $10,000 a day. Weddle agreed to do the video and says everything went well at first, but soon there were problems with production, such as them not turning lights off to "not mess up the timelapse shots," the smell of fresh paint in the confinement room, removal of clocks, etc. Weddle claims he could not sleep and already had insomnia problems. He added that they "don't even do that to terrorists," regarding not turning the lights off for any period of time.

Allegedly, MrBeast at one point came on set and asked Weddle to tell the camera how thankful he was that he could now pay off his student loans. Weddle says it was hard to make that sound genuine. Weddle says he was trying to be funny and entertaining for the video but eventually was trying to think of ways to leave sooner.

He then says there's "something weird" about the way that MrBeast jokes. He claims that MrBeast at one point said, "You're going to jail, just like your dad." Earlier, Weddle said that his dad is in jail for assaulting a minor. Weddle says it "wasn't cool" because MrBeast wasn't his friend, but his boss. According to Weddle, a producer at one point asked if he was doing well because the footage they were getting was "haunting."

Weddle claims they got him to do a marathon run challenge and he was exhausted. He tapped out of the competition with about seven more days left. He says they brought his family there for the end of the video, along with MrBeast, who Weddle claims pretended to cry for him. MrBeast gave him $100,000 and they never aired the video, instead refilming it with another contestant after "working out the kinks."

DogPack404 then shows texts between Weddle and a friend about his experience on the video in which Weddle claims he's going to therapy over the filming experience. In the texts, Weddle complains about MrBeast not paying him the full amount of money promised and not being able to sleep afterward.

DogPack404 proceeds to show an alleged internal document from the MrBeast team called "How to succeed in MrBeast production," which starts with a subheading "no does not mean no," in which they insist that employees don't take no from an answer to film in locations, etc. and only stop when all avenues have been explored. He then shows some evidence of people complaining about the state that filming locations were left in after the MrBeast crew filmed there.

DogPack404 then asks Weddle about the Ava Kris Tyson allegations and if he knew about them. Weddle says there was the occasional "off-handed joke." Weddle says he heard rumors about sexual misconduct at the company but knows nothing solid.

Finally, Weddle reveals that there was purportedly a sex offender working on the MrBeast production team at the time he worked there. He alleges that the employee was on the sex offender registry for doing "stuff" with underage people, claiming that not only did the man work there, but that he appears in some MrBeast videos with a mask on, suggesting it's to hide his identity. Purportedly, they called him "Delaware" as a nickname because he's "not allowed to go to Delaware." DogPack404 claims he's unaware if MrBeast knew of Delaware's past, but even if he didn't, that it exposes a flaw in their background checks.

Online Reactions

Reactions to "I Worked For MrBeast, He's A Sociopath"

The August 2024 video inspired memes and reactions across social media in the following days. Many focused on the claim about Delaware, whose identity some people tried to dig up.

On August 7th, 2024, X[5][6] users @internetanarch and @OctopoxYT posted documents from the sex offender registry regarding a man named Charles R. Jefferson, who is believed to be Delaware, although this is not officially confirmed. According to their posts, the man's victim was between one and 11 years old (document shown below, left, screenshot allegedly showing Delaware in a MrBeast video, right).

Jake The Viking's Response

On August 8th, 2024, Jake the Viking, another former MrBeast employee, made a post on X[7] claiming that Delaware is his brother-in-law and defending him from the allegations. In the post, he claims that when Delaware was 21, "a 16-year-old girl accused him and others of SA when she was 11. Delaware took a Plea Deal. That's why there was no jail time, but he still had to register." He added his nickname is Delaware because he came from Delaware.

According to Jake, Delaware explained his situation to MrBeast and MrBeast's mom Sue before he was hired and then they hired him. He writes that Delaware was not supposed to be on camera but ended up on camera a few times and wore a mask because he was reluctant to show his face. The post gained over 4,000 likes in under a day (shown below).


Jake Franklin @jake_theviking Here's the Truth. Yes Delaware is my Brother-In-Law. Yes he is a RSO. When he was 21, a 16 year old girl accused him and others of SA when she was 11. Delaware took a Plea Deal. That's why there was no jail time, but he still had to register. His nickname isn't Delaware because he can't go back to Delaware, he's from Delaware. That was the dumbest thing I've ever heard. He's been back several times. He was hired before I was, and was actually the reason I got hired at MrBeast. Before being hired, Delaware sat down with Jimmy and Sue (Jimmy's Mom) and explained to them everything. So yes, Jimmy knew. But again, this incident happened in 2010, Delaware was hired in 2017/2018. Delaware was also let go from the company before I was. Delaware was supposed to be a behind the scenes Manager. But in a couple videos, he was asked to partake because we needed people. He was reluctant, especially in the straight jacket video because of his charges, and that's why he wore the mask. Delawares charges are set to be dropped this fall. Delaware has been nothing but a good person, an amazing husband to my sister, and the best father to my 2 nieces that I could ever ask for. They want no part in this, and want to just live their lives away from the lime light. I understand why anyone would be upset and frustrated over these allegations and I do not blame them. Hurting kids in any way is completely unacceptable. But in the case of Delaware, I firmly believe he did nothing wrong and look forward to the day these charges are dropped. Thank you. 1:13 PM - Aug 8, 2024 809.6K Views

Guys…

He won.
But for real though, seeing the current number one youtuber be thrown into a sea of controversy doesn't really surprise me. He tries so hard to have this clean cut image of himself when in reality, he has a ton of skeletons locked behind a closet ready to come out.
Stuff like this really makes me appreciate how true and down to earth Pewdiepie was even if I wasn't really much of a fan and the few controversies that did happened while he was active didn't really damage his reputation.
