It is not someone else's responsibility to avoid your triggers. I have an ED so yes, I have a voice in this.

He was doing a water fast. Humans have been fasting for spiritual, cultural, and health reasons forever so I don't see a problem with his video. He had health professionals by his side and gave a warning for people not to do it on their own. He didn't do anything wrong, people just flip out over everything these days. 🤦🏻‍♀️

Your triggers are not other people's responsibilities. Don't watch videos that clearly tell you the (triggering) context in the title. Tons of people fast like this all the time. Including for religious purposes. Not to mention he had plenty of people monitering him. And sure, he ended up explaining his situation, but he shouldn't have to. He makes the content he wants, if you don't wanna watch it, dont watch it. Let's not act like Mr Beast is problematic.. cause that just ain't it.

Mr Beast: Don't try this at home I literally have an entire team of doctors Everyone else: And I took that personally.

I don't have an ED but did have anxiety, and anytime anyone mentioning certain words would be triggering for me. I would immediately click OUT of the video or the post when any triggers come up. I don't think MrBeast should be blamed for for that challenge video. You know your own triggers and you know how to avoid them.

As someone with an Ed I think this video is actually super accurate. He’s showing the brutal side of starving yourself no one wants to talk about. He’s not responsible for our triggers

The title alone should be enough to know it could be triggering if you have an ED, and i feel like it’s safe to assume that if a video is about not eating, then there’s probably some sort of acknowledgment of the weightloss aspect. I have a history with ED, i saw the video come up, figured it probably wasnt for me and chose not to watch it. Moved on with my life unbothered. It’s not realistic for a content creator to be able to avoid every single possible trigger in existence in every single thing they make. Plenty of people make videos about fad diets, fasting, etc and their effects on the body. You know from the title what the video is. At that point, it’s on you to avoid your triggers.

A key part of MrBeast's channel is him testing his endurance i.e. staying underwater for 24 hours, being buried alive for 2 days etc so I genuinely think this was just another way for him to push his body to the limits. I don't think there was any ill intent with the video. However, I can see why it would be triggering for those with EDs so a bit more explanation as to why he was trying this challenge and his crohn's disease would have helped. At least he was being monitored closely throughout and was very honest about how difficult this experience was and the side-effects.

I have crohn’s as well and honestly it’s kindve rude for people to be like ‘hE’s tRiGGeriNg mE’ when the title CLEARLY says what the challenge is and he further explains it’s for MEDICAL PURPOSES. You can’t force the world to adapt to YOU, the whole point of therapy is to be able to come to terms with your trauma and help cope with it. Screaming about how triggering everything is isn’t going to help.

Seriously, imagine… This guy is so unproblematic that if he doesn't eat the whole world wants to talk about it as if he's some sort of monster come on…

It’s not his job to monitor what he does just to not trigger people. I didn’t hear people get mad over super size me even though that could have qualified as a ED

A friend of mine really did 30 days of fasting for health reasons (she has a rare cancer) Her sharing her experience (really similar to his: no strength, no will to do anything..) did not make me want to try it. If you are sensitive on this kind of topic you should avoid triggers. The video was CLEARLY about fasting.

I have an ED and can confirm it’s not his responsibility to compensate for our triggers. He shouldn’t be cancelled.

I don’t think everyone should have to tip toe around everyone who gets “triggered” the title said not eating food for 30 days and if that would trigger you, why watch it?

I’ve struggled with it myself and still do to this day. In therapy they’ve told me I have to overcome and find what my triggers are as the world won’t censor itself for me. If you have something like this you have to learn what triggers you into that state and avoid said thing or overcome it. It’s not other’s responsibility to cater towards 1 person simply because it causes a negative reaction in you.

About the cake situation, multiple people were approached about making the toilet cake not just the one on TikTok. For her to call Jimmy out was just wrong because sending a video showing you can make the cake was an audition, not a confirmed you are making the cake for the video. Like don’t get me wrong, the cake looked good in the TikTok but assuming that Jimmy didn’t approach other creators as well was narcissistic of her. She isn’t the only cake decorator out there. Like I understand if there was a slight misunderstanding but you sort it out privately first not bash him online.

ok but like, he said he was doing it for a disease he had, he was fasting

Idk I feel like this issue was not that bad tbh. He took all the right steps and if someone got triggered, that's kind of on them. They saw the title, thumbnail, the caution in the first 5 minutes, and the comment stating why he was doing this. It's not like he didn't warn anyone

Twitter is just a place where all the people who need attention start stuff online, you cant constantly say everything is dangerous and sensitive! No you’re just a sensitive person, the whole world doesn’t revolve around you.

"but over on twitter it was a completely different story" well that says it all🤦🏻‍♀️ people on twitter are the definition of chronically online. they get upset about literally everything and make mountains out of molehills.

You can’t live your life protecting every single person who’s sensitive to something different or else we will all live miserable lives doing literally nothing. I would hope he had a trigger warning for people who it would trigger but he wasn’t promoting an ED. As someone who has had a diagnosed eating disorder this was not that. As far as the toilet situation I’m glad the miscommunication was straightened out and she was compensated for her time and work!

People watching videos with trigger warnings and getting upset is like people who HATE jump scares, but knowingly go to haunted houses anyway and get mad at staff for just doing their job. 🥴

If you have an eating disorder just don't watch I don't get what's hard with that . He gave a trigger warning and he stated multiple times to not do this. Y'all are really are so sensitive it's embarrassing.

The video's title is literally "I Didn’t Eat Food For 30 Days", it's self-explanatory. People could have easily understood that there would have been some triggering things for people who have an ED and not click on the video. Let's not try to make him the villain here, we all know our triggers and how to avoid them.

It's not our job to avoid other's triggers. He put multiple warnings and the title is obvious enough.

I think some people need to relax and stop trying to find something wrong with everything. It’s not everyone else’s job to make sure your feelers aren’t hurt

I never followed Jimmy's content much but you people are overreacting. He has doctors and people out looking for everyone involved in every challenge he did. I don't see the issue at all.

ive had a severe eating disorder for 5 years that nearly killed me, thankfully ive gotten the help i needed and was officially discharged from my clinic in 2020, yup linn dara, personally i don’t see an issue with the video, again he did state multiple times not to attempt it, had the aid of medical professionals and didnt glamourise it in anyway, he actually displayed the struggles that depriving your body of food can result in. I understand that not everyone who has struggled will have the same perspective as me, eds can be very personal with a verity of different reasonings and methods so i’m not attempting to speak on the issue in generalised way, simply stating that even with my history and watching the video in full i personally was not offended or put in any kind of uncomfortable mindset. Again, in my opinion i believe the weigh ins would be a thing that would come naturally hand in hand with the videos premise. Stay safe and if you are struggle please do get help, its the best decision ive ever made, I have a new, happier and healthier outlook on life that I would of never been able to achieve without the nourishment of food

This type of fasting is very common in many cultures, especially Jainism where one of the type of fasting is living on boiled water for 30 days. And many people do it and are fine. Some people do it for religion where some people do it to push their limits and practice dedication. There was no trigger of ED. People are too sensitive these days.

1:00 simply no. That video was NOT shown to another creator to show “how to make a toilet cake”. She was simply not hired for the job, her request for compensation is reasonable I’ll give her that. The artist that WAS hired for the job has an AMAZING track record of making realistic cakes and has a loyal fan base, we notice the neon green frosting anywhere. It was a job, simple as that.

I don't want to hear anything about the video of him not eating. As someone who has Crohns like him yall don't understand the lengths we have to go through to feel a little bit normal, we actually have to fast to heal because eating can kill us.

I love this Channel She’s always telling me about stuff I don’t know was going on

If you’re _so quick_ to relapse then it’s your responsibility to avoid triggering content. Sorry not sorry, you are solely responsible for maintaining your own mental health. The world doesn’t owe only you a safe space. I used to have a pretty bad ED and the way I kept myself healthy is avoiding situations that could trigger it to start again. Same with depression and anxiety - I’ve kept it pretty under control because I LIMIT MYSELF to situations where I’m not relapsing. Seriously. In a world where we still have Eugenia Cooney, ED Queen Galore, still on the platform despite her harmful content, y’all getting pressed over MrBeast not only having medical professionals on call but getting checkups every day to make sure he’s still alright is the most ridiculous thing anyone could be mad at.

People are so fucking annoying, they get trigged about EVERYTHING. There's warning in the video and he has a medical team with him. If you have eating problems, then dont watch the fucking video, people dont have to live in certain ways just because you have your own problems, its your responsibility. But its twitter, what are we expecting from people on twitter? That shit should be deleted 🙄

Fr Twitter needs to mind their own business, I’m getting so annoyed with people pressuring everyone to be OVERLY sensitive about trigger warnings

I have an ED and honestly I liked his video. it was very intresting to see someone other than myself to go through the effects of starving yourself also think it gives people somewhat of an idea/ understanding of ed. (There is different types of ED) lol anyways people know what triggers them and should avoid it. XD

I find it sus that it was a “miscommunication”. I could get paid enough to say that tbh

Mr. Beast could literally do no wrong. His videos are about testing your body's limits in a challenging way, whether it's "who can stand on a rope the longest", "who can swing the longest", "I stayed in slime for 24 hours", that igloo challenge, and just numerous other challenges. I honestly don't think he meant any harm and he corrected the situation with that baker. Mr. Beast is literally the LEAST PROBLEMATIC KZfaqr in existence and he does so much good for the community like feeding the homeless, buying teachers classroom supplies, saying businesses that are about to go under and so, so much more. You have to give thia guy some credit, he wouldn't hurt a fly. And that is the overwhelming view in the comment section for a reason.

He put a warning at the start of the video. Water fasting is common as a ‘detox’ option, or a reset diet. There are also other comments mentioning other reasons it’s used. He had professionals checking his health. If you’re dumb enough to click on a video that has a ton of warnings that’s on you, not him.

you're so fast 😭 i literally JUST finished watching his video before i hit refresh

Ok I agree with what most people on the comments are saying, but now I’m kinda sad that a lot of the comments start with “As someone with an ED” :Sending love to all of you guys, I hope you are doing better :)

Okay... Someone with an ED here. He had doctor assistance. It wasn't malicious. He's not making fun of people with EDs, he was pushing himself like he always does. There's a reason why I'm not on Twitter 🙄

I feel like of someone just watched the first few seconds of the video they’d already know whether or not they would be able to handle it. He explicitly said he’s not going to eat….if you still choose to continue the video after that then that’s at your own jurisdiction. I don’t really see anything wrong with the ppl on twitter just potentially warning others but to blame him for triggering others is too much. He is not responsible for what others find triggering. I’d say the only time someone truly has to out a TW is if there are flashes of light in the vid.

Okay but her just taking a bite straight out of the "toilet paper" at 0:50 has me wheezing 😂😂😭

Mr beast has Crohns disease. My partner has the same. Fasting can be such a good pain relief as a part of Crohns when digesting food it cause so much pain! He is clearly doing it for medical reasons as well as for views !

Water fasts can be beneficial, what a way to break a fast, I would for Gordon Ramsey!!

Love that you include a TW, you're an angel ✨

I’m getting better on being here right after you post! 5 mins!!💗

People are severely overreacting. The title & thumbnail was enough of a warning it could trigger someone. If you watched it out of curiosity & smth happened, that's on you. He can't consider everyone's triggers 💀 If he did that he wouldn't even have a channel 😒 also fasting is normal. People need to stop acting like fasting = ED.

I didn’t even have to click the video to know which mr.beast video you were talking about lol. I seen that title and I was like hell nah

I have been in recovery from anorexia for the past 10 months, in that time I have been hospitalized once, been at 2 residential treatment facility’s, and just discharged from 16 weeks on EDIOP, so this topic hits close to home for me. But personally as much as I do not agree with the overall idea of his video, I appreciate how extremely aware he was of his own health while doing the challenge. Also how much he vocalizes the extreme negative impact starvation has on one’s body. So as much as I do not like the idea of the video I think jimmy handled the video with very wise and careful thinking. And clearly did not intend or make much harm by positing the video.

I mean I could see how controversial it could be but I mean it reminds me about the Demi Lovato situation where she got triggered over the guilt free cookies. At the end of the day you are responsible for your own triggers and if seeing a video that says “I didn’t eat for 30 days” triggers you then don’t watch it. I watch a lot of true crime cases and while stuff doesn’t trigger me, there are some subjects that are too much for me and if I know I can’t handle that then I don’t watch the video or listen to the podcast.

My Beast also hasn’t ate in weeks at this point so I can imagine he’d be so tired and all over the place.

YOUR triggers are YOUR responsibility. Not everyone else’s. Know your triggers and try to steer clear of them. It’s no one’s fault if you miss the flags that something is going to trigger you and click into the video; that’s on you.

I understand the mixed feelings. I battled with ED for 7 year actively, and now that it's been 6 years I still need constant reminders that eating is good for me when I feel like slipping. A video like this is triggering for sure but the warning is in the title. I understand the struggles of trying to eat when your mind says no, but everyone needs to take accountability for their actions. If the title itself is triggering (at least for me it was) then that should be the key for not watching the damn video. I haven't watched the video because I know that for me it's a slippery slope, but if it keeps track about what not eating does for your body it's a great learning lesson for those who don't have first hand experience from having an ED. Not saying it's the greatest subject for a video but how else can one learn unless someone else does it first and shares the experience.

As someone with an ED, I agree that it’s not Mr Beasts responsibility to make sure you don’t click on a video that could be triggering. However, I worry that this video could spark the idea of not eating or an ED in someone who otherwise, may not have considered starving themselves. Especially with the weigh ins and body checks

Omg people complain about anything🙄 Out of all the things this man does to make the world a better place just out of the kindness of his heart people will still try to cancel him even though he states MULTIPLE times in the vid not to do this and he had medical professionals. People are so fucking sensitive, if it bothers you that much THEN DONT WATCH THE VIDEO. You can see by the thumb nail if it’s something you would want to watch or not but don’t act like he’s promoting this when he’s not

That was good that he compensated the cake girl

Except Natalie Sideserf doesn’t need to see that creator’s cake to make her own… 😳🤦🏽‍♀️ Glad that got sorted out though.

if anything, whatching mr beast having headaches and being drained out just made me more aware of the consequences from food deprivation.

My twin brother and I have crohns. He actually did a 4 day fast 2 weeks ago. He’s done similar ones and it’s helped him. I honestly just wish mr.beast would do more to bring awareness to the disease. I understand the ED thing… but this is what he does. Pushes himself to do crazy things.

Twitter’s always full of it. All intent was transparent. Can speak on the subject. I feel for his struggles 🫂 One could argue the same points for people such as Nikocado, mukbangers, obsessively fit people (those who aim for health but go too extreme), etc, especially those who participate in unhealthy practices with no warnings, transparency, deceit (such as faking illnesses), medical professionals monitoring, etc, which imo would be more valid. Idk man. There’s always something shitty nowadays, huh? :( Always something bad :( I just hope Mr Beast recovers well and soon as possible 💜

Unlike most influencers, I feel like MrBeast might take this situation as a learning lesson and do what he can to make things right. If this were anyone else, however, who has proved time and time again that they’ve reached the point of dismissing people voicing concerns as “haters,” yeah, let’s not expect much.

As someone with an ED, how is it his responsibility to make sure he doesn't trigger people? The title says it all, and there are religious practices that involve fasting. He had doctors on site and repeatedly said not to try it at home and has Crohn's disease. I didn't watch it because the title gave me all I needed to know🙄

Anybody else notice how she pronounces words that end in -wn like known, as -wen, knowen? It gets me every time! Love the content though ❤

The first drama is yikes. Even if he eventually paid her, I feel that it's all because of the backlash he is receiving.

He gave lots of warnings in his video so ppl on Twitter who were freaking out need a chill pill. He gave multiple warnings and I think the title with thumbnail alone was enough to give an idea what the video was about

Dude if he can’t weigh himself on camera in front of 100 million people then I don’t think he needs to share that he has crohn’s in front of 100 million people plus the title and the thumbnail are enough to warn people who are sensitive to those topics

They are literally other KZfaqrs out there who needed to be stopped for promoting ED. MrBeast had a lot of disclaimers and warnings.

Idk why twitter has a whole different world. Like ppl there thinks way different than the context. It's the same as Tiktok. I'm just glad I'm not part of it.

i just gotta say you're the only tea channel left that i can stand to watch. i enjoy your reporting on things that happen on YT platform, but you do it in a non-Karen way and without judgment. i am so sick of everyone elses negativity and constant feeding off of being hateful to others. its not my cup of tea! never change tea spill! ☕💦💖 even your comment section is much nicer and more pleasant environment! thanks for all your consistency in the tea you serve!

the video: i dont eat for 30 days (and i have health professionals with me checking in) the people: i cant believe he didnt eat for 30 days??? warn me much??? WHERES THE HEALTH PROFESSIONALS? i have an ED and i knew to skip that video and the part that showed it in this video, like at that point youre just watching it to get upset

I’m surprised his doctors allowed this, I have UC which is the same as Crohn’s but less of the digestive system and I usually have to eat MORE to remain healthy not less

as someone w an ED i knew what i was getting myself into by the title. if you cannot handle it do not watch his video. he did well in being informative. honestly this internet world is just sensitive. the real world doesn’t come w TW or care about your feelings.

Notice how people don’t call people out for making videos eating food but do when they aren’t? It’s an experiment with a doctor…. just like the man who had a documentary about eating McDonald’s for a month. Double standards are just whaaaaaccckkyyy

There’s also some Hollywood actors who actually most likely would of had to consensually fast for a long period of time like that under medical supervision for the movies and shows they are in like if they are playing as an extremely food deprived impoverished character in a medieval fantasy movie for example.

You need to make a video about Dre Mcray

“But over in twitter” yup I knew it

i struggle with eating enough. i know watching that video could trigger something in me with that. so i just won’t watch it till i’m doing better. it’s not his job to tell you not to watch it, it’s common sense edit for more: i also have crohns and it helps depending on the person for the inflammation. it truly does suck and sometimes i don’t eat because it causes pain.

Woah this is unexpected for real..

Thx for a fair view and including updates from those involved on this hot tea.

God twitter people really can't read or hear ,i usually not surprised about thing happened in twitter, but this one its so absurd

Sorry your triggers are not others responsibilities lmao what. The people on twitter are pick mes

Twitter needs to get a life.

even if mrbeast didn't like the original cake he didnt need to pay her if it wasnt agreed upon during the essentially interview stage. thats like a freelance writer or graphic artist providing an example of work and the company deciding to go with someone else and their public design is similiar to original person, that's like Cake Boss getting upset because mr beast considered her instead of him seeing as he was the orignial person to become famous from making giant cakes that look like things.

I don't think the video was Ill intended about the video, I know however that the video could be triggering to ED community as someone who has past record of ED, I hope everyone is okay

Classic Twitter 💀

as someone that had an ED that legit sent me to the psych ward for two weeks.. mr beast's video is perfectly fine and your video is clickbait-y and is super uncessecary in relation to ED content it's “fine” i guess, for clout and other drama related channels, but the underlying tones of using this topic for “clout” is super questionable in terms of morality

Jesus christ this generation needs to grown up

Not eat for 30 days give me early 2000s get to size zero vibes.

wasn't it sideserf cake studio?

I remember there was a video of 30 day water fasting (by a Buzzfeed i think) and I don't recall seeing medical team... they literally said it was terrible for 3 days and after all beautiful and easy...

People just triggers to anything nowadays

People really get upset over anything lol

Oof I jumped. Drama about a pooper cake

People need to grow up, he does a shit ton of videos about pushing himself to the limit and he showed the negative effects of not eating. If anything it did more good than bad.

"over on twitter it was a different story"... I rolled my eyes so hard they hurt... some people reaaaaaally need to touch some grass.

Thank you for the ED TW :) it’s extremely appreciated. See you in the next video!

immediately when i heard the word twitter, it said it all

Lmao remember when mr beast said the f slur
