“Stand for anything and people will hate you,” wrote another.
“Your light challenges and threatens the ascendency of darkness, and it emanates in ways like this. This is a clear sign that you are winning,” commented yet another user.

“You exist and are rich and loving life. Ppl are jealous. Sorry,” one wrote.
“Rich guy uses his money for good in entertaining ways -> kill him!! The world is a very strange place,” a commenter said sarcastically.
“You’re successful which makes you automatically hated by people that don’t know you….” wrote another user.
MrBeast’s Collaboration with Ashton Hall
MrBeast’s recent foray into viral content included a collaboration with fitness influencer Ashton Hall, focusing on their morning routines. The entertaining video showcased intense workout sessions and has already amassed over 57.7 million views on X.
In this engaging morning routine starting at the early hour of 3:53 a.m., viewers witnessed Hall performing his signature ice bowl facial. This collaboration followed the recent social media buzz around Hall’s morning ritual meme trend.
The original viral morning routine video was uploaded by Hall on February 8 and began with a dramatic moment, featuring him removing tape from his lips. This engaging content included personal care rituals such as drinking water from a distinctive blue Saratoga bottle and a series of exercises topped off by an ice bath.
Days later, on March 24, 2025, MrBeast humorously poked fun at Hall through a parody post on X, showing a screenshot of a mock “Personal Assistant” providing instructions reminiscent of Hall’s over-the-top routines. Despite the humor, Hall has yet to publicly respond to these developments.
