To the average gamer, Jimmy "MrBeast" Donaldson is an entrepreneurial mastermind, rolling around in the millions of dollars pulled from recreating Squid Game amongst other incredible content series launched on his YouTube, but he's not quite on the level of Elon Musk.

Despite becoming a competent millionaire through the means of gaming and content creation, MrBeast will likely have never imagined getting his hands on a $40b billion company, such as Twitter. However, an unlikely alliance between the 24-year-old burger chain owner and the mind behind Tesla's supercars and Space X's journeys around the universe has now been solidified by the strongest of pacts: a Twitter exchange.

Taking to the platform that he just bought for $44 billion, Elon Musk has just agreed to hand over the keys to the kingdom to MrBeast, should he meet an untimely death.

Elon Musk Offers Twitter Ownership To MrBeast

You don't win the lottery without buying a ticket, do you? In that essence, MrBeast shot his shot with Elon Musk, by asking him whether he could have Twitter if Musk dies, something that he joked about in a recent tweet.

Much to his amazement, Musk simply replied with "Ok", which may as well be a pinky promise in Twitter terms.

It's as simple as that. Should Elon Musk meet a sticky end in the near future, it will be MrBeast who will be the king of Twitter, where you can expect some form of a wacky overhaul to feature in a new YouTube video.

 

Following the exchange, it appears MrBeast is holding the business mogul to his word too. A childish "no takesies backsies", was the jibe of MrBeast, locking in the deal.

For MrBeast, his "giga brain" is busy at work in his next two colossal projects, which he's dubbed "Squid Game level". His famous video, based upon the hit Netflix Series, is currently sat second on the charts for most views in 24-hours, missing out on first to that Will Smith slap.

It's looking like he's going to try and top this though, with two massive videos in the pipeline; a recreation of Willie Wonka's iconic chocolate factory is underway, while he also revealed on Twitter that he will be giving away a $100 million island... you know, because he just can.

No doubt Musk has some interesting ideas up his sleeve for Twitter in the future, although it would be fun to see what MrBeast would do with the platform, given the opportunity.
