Worth $100k and Gives Them to Strangers

Restore faith in humanity

The Motor1.com staff consists of car enthusiasts. We do what car fans do, and we enjoy engaging in car-themed tomfoolery. We search YouTube for car videos to share with our friends. And we found one of the most amazing clips. This video doesn’t show drifting, burnouts or people claiming they have purchased the “cheapest Ferrari Lamborghini [insert random costly car] anywhere in the world.” Instead, these heartwarming videos feature people who claim to have purchased the most affordable cars in the entire world. Most of the cars were offered for free and some came with a bonus. You can now turn on your heartlight to see the generosity of MrBeast at YouTube.

You can pay it forward

You may have seen this clip before. It’s viral because it has almost 12 million views within 24 hours. The 16-minute-long video explains that 12 used cars were purchased at regular prices and then “resold” for a fee. It was almost free. A Chevrolet Traverse sold for $2. A Toyota Venza was purchased for 50 cents. However, the buyer didn’t have 50 cents so the car was reduced by 50 cents.

Other buyers were willing to bargain hard. One lady was shocked to learn that the silver Ford Fiesta’s $1,000 cost was actually the amount she would receive in addition the car. The offer was quickly increased to $1,500 by the lady who didn’t know how to respond. The challenge was a sit-in where three other people took part. The winner would be the first to leave, but two cars came along so that everyone could go home with a new car. All 12 cars were sold by the end of the day.

Be the Change

Jimmy Donaldson is the YouTuber behind MrBeast, which features clips of random cash giveaways as well as contests. This guy loves making videos and giving back. It’s refreshing to see someone reversing the trend of social media influencers flaunting their wealth. The 12 cars cost more than $100,000. It’s clear that the world needs more kindnesses like this. Jimmy, thanks for being so awesome.
