Why was Mr. Beast's 100 mill Award missing from this video?
Well, that's because it's currently flying
thousands of miles over the Atlantic Ocean,
and I'm about to get a train to London to go pick it up.
In fact, I'm running a little bit late.
I should probably...
Yeah, I'm gonna go.
Filled with excitement,
I jumped in the car and headed to the train station.
My train turned up, so while I jump on and find a seat,
you're probably wondering how did this guy end up stealing
one of the biggest YouTube awards in history?
Well, it's actually quite simple.
Basically, Mr. Beast DMed me and asked if I wanted to borrow it,
and I was like, "Yeah."
After a slow couple of hours, eventually, I arrived into London Kings Cross.
All right, I've made it to London King's Cross.
Apparently, 45 minutes walk will get me to the hotel
where I am meeting this fella
to pick up Mr. Beast's 100 Million play button.
Now, who is this mysterious fella I'm going to meet?
Could it be Jimmy himself?
Could it be Chris?
Could it be Chandler?
Maybe it's Karl.
No, it's none of them.
I'm actually going to meet 2020 American Idol finalist,
Franklin Boone.
I'm not sure why.
Apparently, he works for Mr. Beast now, I guess.
I was waiting for Franklin to get through customs for a while,
so I enjoyed some business-expensable pizza.
Don't mind if I do.
I pointed out some cool-looking flags.
Kyrgyzstan embassy.
Then I sat in the park and filmed a pigeon
while thinking about the fact that I'm soon to be the first person
to touch two 100 Million play buttons at the same time.
Because if you're new here,
I already own PewDiePie's 100 Million play button,
so I'll be comparing the two on side by side very soon.
Anyway, after a few hours, I heard back from Franklin.
Right, I've just had the go ahead from Franklin.
Apparently, it is safe to go meet him at the hotel,
pick up the 100 Million play button.
Okay, here we go.
I found the hotel,
and then sat very nervously in their cafe
in total disbelief of what was about to happen.
Hi.
Hey.
How are you doing?
I'm well. How are you?
I'm not bad. Thanks.
Jack. Nice to meet you.
Franklin. Nice to meet you as well.
Now, because I'm from Northeast England,
Franklin the American basically didn't understand anything I said.
Say what now?
Pardon?
Yeah.
But either way, he handed over the play button
wrapped in some very underwhelming red cloth
because the briefcase was too big for carry-on luggage.
I said goodbye to Franklin.
Thanks a lot.
Cheers.
Cheers. See you later.
Had a moment of reflection-
Oh, my God.
-and got the hell out of there.
Go, go, go, go, go.
We've got it. We've got it.
It's incredibly heavy in my bag, but we've got it, we've got it.
As I said, the play button was incredibly heavy,
so I decided to get the tube back to King's Cross.
As I looked around,
I gazed upon all these mere mortals living their tiny, insignificant lives,
blissfully unaware of the power that I now hold.
Anyway, eventually I got the train home, and now here I am.
As you can see, I've not yet unwrapped this Play Button,
but oh, my God...
How do I have Mr. Beast's 100 Million play button
in my hand?
What?
Although thinking about it, maybe this is a big prank
and it's just a brick or something.
Maybe it's $1 million.
Okay, it is about time I unbox this thing.
It is so heavy, by the way.
I am so excited to compare it to the PewDiePie play button,
because you've got to remember that PewDiePie received his 100 mill Award
back in 2019.
So have they tweaked the design at all in three years?
We're about to find out.
Right, I guess I need to untie this knot?
I literally don't know how to get into this.
Oh, my God.
Here we go. Here we go.
Look at that.
Yes, yes, yes, that's progress.
And again, and again, and again.
Oh, I can feel the button.
Let's just take a moment to realise that this is insane!
How have I ended up here?
What is going on?
All right, now I continue jabbing this bit of rope with my knife.
Come on.
I'm very nervous about this
because you've got to remember, I have to give this back.
This is not mine.
I'm not keeping this.
I'm borrowing it,
and I have something incredibly exciting planned.
Oh, my God.
Here we go.
But for now, I just want to get a good look at it.
Oh, my God...
Ten years ago, Mr. Beast launched his channel
making Minecraft videos.
From the early days, he had a passion for play buttons.
Eventually, after hundreds of videos,
he gets his silver play button, then his golden play button,
then his diamond play button,
and then finally, his 100 million subscriber play button,
which he literally buried on an island
and then gave that island away to the first person who found it.
Now, that very play button is right in front of me.
What is this rag, by the way?
It's like it's from Santa.
What is going on?
Right, it's now very play button shaped.
Yep, there we go.
Oh, my God.
My hand is touching it.
Let's get a little glimpse. Little glimpse.
Do you know what?
I need me gloves on as a sign of respect.
Here we go.
All right.
Oh, my God. Oh, my God...
The centrepiece is different.
I can instantly see a difference.
Side note, what is this?
Is it just...
What?
It's literally like it's the sleeve from a Santa Claus outfit.
What the...
All right, so we've already identified
that the centrepiece is different from the PewDiePie play button.
I'll put them side by side shortly.
But first, oh, my God.
I don't even know how to lift it up.
It's so heavy.
It's so slippy in my gloves.
I genuinely can't lift it up.
I'm going to have to slide it to the end of the table.
All right, you ready to see the back?
Oh, my God! Oh, my God...!
None of these finger marks were me.
They were all there already.
There it is.
"Mr. Beast, congratulations on passing 100 million subscribers."
Okay.
Look at that red Baccarat crystal glistening in my light.
Oh, my God.
It's beautiful.
When you look at this in the light,
you can see it's got a lot of scratches on it.
Now, I expected this
because I reckon it got a lot of grains of sand on it
when it was buried.
But that's good because now I can't be blamed
for any of the scratches.
Okay, we need to grab PewDiePie's play button
because we need to compare these two.
Also, I'm going to put Mr. Beast's 100 Million play button
in PewDiePie's 100 million briefcase,
because why not?
There we go.
Okay.
Don't mind me, just sliding this in.
Sorry, just got to zoom me camera out
because I've got too many 100 million play buttons.
Okay, here we have two 100 million play buttons side by side.
Very interesting, the red crystal is so much more vibrant
on PewDiePie's award, which I did not expect at all.
Also, when you look really closely at the crystal,
you can see that the designs are actually two different shapes,
which is, once again, very interesting.
Also, you can see why I'm wearing gloves.
It is just absolutely impossible to keep these things clean.
Now, I want to find out, are they actually the same size?
Here we go.
I literally can't fit them all in.
I can't get over the centrepieces looking so different.
That's crazy.
But anyway, yes, it looks like they're basically the same dimensions.
It's just the centrepieces which are different.
Okay, I've now turned
both of my 100 million YouTube subscriber play buttons upside down
to reveal that they both have a sticker.
But Mr. Beast's Society Award's sticker is gold,
whereas PewDiePie's is just white.
Makes you think.
Okay, I think it's about time I just hold both of them at the same time.
Here's my PewDiePie 100 million play button.
I can't believe this!
I don't know how to grab them.
Yep, there we go.
Okay...
Wow.
Oh, hiya, guys.
How you doing?
You- You alright?
Cool. That's nice.
Yeah. Yeah, I'm just hanging out with me 100 mill play buttons.
It's fine.
All right, PewDiePie briefcase, anyone?
Mr. Beast's 100 mill play button
inside of PewDiePie's 100 million briefcase.
There we go.
Oh, it doesn't quite fit.
Come on.
There we… Come on.
Squeeze in, squeeze in.
There we go!
Now, we'll just seal that up.
There we are.
Now that I literally have
Mr. Beast's 100 million subscriber play button,
I want to do the craziest thing that I can think of.
That is why I've decided I'm going to try and send the play button into space,
and I've not told Mr. Beast about it.
