The prominent content creator and YouTuber MrBeast has just hit the 100 million subscriber milestone today, and celebrated the occasion with a livestream watching the sub count continue to grow until it passed the mark.

Following the achievement, MrBeast spent a lot of the time thanking his friends and fans for helping him to get to this point and re-iterated his love and commitment to YouTube as a platform, with a lot of other prominent YouTubers and internet friends sharing their love and support for him on Twitter after the livestream.

Over a million people celebrated 100,000,000 subscribers with me 🥹

This accomplishment comes just days after MrBeast faced criticism online for his most recent upload, in which he had 100 girls and 100 boys compete against each other in an "isolation challenge." The backlash and criticism came from MrBeast's use of girls and boys, as many online claimed that he was not being gender-inclusive or discriminatory against people who are non-binary by not giving them the chance to be included in the challenge or feel represented in the video.

This, as expected, created a counter-movement where people started to defend MrBeast and shout down others who were critical of him.

Why are people trying to cancel @MrBeast for not adding non binary people? It’s called BOYS vs GIRLS for a reason!!! The man does so much good for people and some of y’all hating him for one video that he worked hard on to make people happy????

Undoubtedly, 100 million is a hard number to truly comprehend, as it is often just a figure only seen online without any real-world representation that's easy to understand. Thankfully, the math was done to show just how impressive this feat is, and how powerful MrBeast would be if he could mobilize all 100 million people together.

Fourteen (14) countries have populations greater than 100 million. Ninety one (91) countries have populations greater than 10 million. China and India account for roughly 36% of the world's population.

Mr Beast has countries full of YouTube Subs. Goat 🐐 👑 @MrBeast https://t.co/YcoIqfuaZ0
