MrBeast sets 44 Guinness World Records during Beast Games

During filming for Beast Games on Amazon, MrBeast broke a whopping 44 Guinness World Records.

In December 2024, MrBeast debuted his new Amazon series called Beast Games. The show consisted of 1,000 contestants competing in a series of challenges for a $10 million prize.

Back in November 2024, MrBeast tweeted a picture of 28 framed certificates that he was awarded from the show. However, it is now confirmed that he won even more records that originally thought.

According to an article from the Gunniess World Records website, MrBeast ended up breaking 44 records in the show.
