Cristiano Ronaldo, one of the greatest football stars in history, was left stunned for a moment when famous YouTuber MrBeast said he was about to die.
Earlier this week, Ronaldo announced that he would be collaborating with a special guest on his YouTube channel. The news sparked speculation among fans, with some hoping that Lionel Messi might be the subject. However, on Thursday, the identity of the guest was revealed: MrBeast, the world’s top YouTuber with a huge number of subscribers.
During the conversation, when he learned that Ronaldo was about to turn 40, MrBeast – whose real name is Jimmy Donaldson – joked: “You’re about to die, how does it feel?”. Ronaldo seemed to freeze for a moment, then he quickly burst out laughing and retorted: “I’ll live until I’m 100, just so you know.” He also emphasized that his football career was very long compared to many other players, most of whom retired before the age of 40.
Ronaldo’s reaction when Mr Beast joked that he was about to… die.
The story quickly went viral on social media, drawing mixed reactions. Some fans applauded MrBeast’s humor, but there were also critical comments. One account wrote: “Cristiano Ronaldo needs MrBeast to get attention? What happened to my GOAT icon?” Meanwhile, another joked: “We actually had Ronaldo and MrBeast collaborating before GTA 6 even came out.”
Alongside the banter, the pair also discussed the potential growth of Ronaldo’s YouTube channel, which currently has over 67 million subscribers. When Ronaldo asked Mr Beast if he was sure the record for the most subscribers would be broken, he quickly replied “no”. However, Ronaldo then humbly replied that he was not serious about breaking Mr Beast’s record: ” To be honest, I don’t really want to break that record. This record is for you”.
Ronaldo admits he no longer has the goal of breaking Mr Beast’s YouTube subscription record.
MrBeast believes that if Ronaldo focused on football-based content, such as inviting famous players to participate or sharing his thoughts after a match, he could achieve even greater success. This interesting dialogue is not only an entertaining event, but also demonstrates Ronaldo’s ability to integrate into the digital media world, where he continues to demonstrate his influence far beyond the football field.
