| 0:35.6 | Many people who are sort of outside the YouTube sphere have no idea who Mr. Beast is, but Mr. Beast is the single most popular YouTuber on YouTube, meaning he has tens of millions of followers, a huge number of people follow his videos. Even if you're not, sort of a routine YouTube, you've probably seen some of his videos. He very famously, a couple of years ago, for example, did a remake of Squid Game in which he actually hired a bunch of people or offered a bunch of people to take part in Squid Game. They're then shot with paintball guns. His videos are incredibly well done. They've been viewed hundreds of millions of times each. We're talking about billions and billions of views for Mr. Beast. He's very young guys, like 24, 25 years old. His actual name is Jimmy Donaldson. And the entire sort of drive of his show is that he does these incredibly creative videos, |

| 1:56.5 | who was part of sort of the bro crew. and now he is saying that he is gender transitioning |
| 2:01.1 | into becoming a woman. And for people who are fans in Mr. Beast, this sort of changes the |

| 2:12.1 | regularly and suddenly a bunch of bros are interrupted by one guy who is pretending to be or believes that he is a woman, |
