I don't know how much money YouTube pays content creators, but will 10,000,000 views pay enough to buy and trash a $100,000 vehicle?
You would be shocked. Exhibit “A” is of course Mr Beast.
One previous video on his channel he set fire to a Ferrari F8 (~$250k+) in a clearly staged 'accident', so he presumably has enough money to wreck a $100k Cybertruck.
Easily: 5$ CPM gets them half way there. Maybe they got some wacky discount from Tesla as a "promotion" (it must be crazy enough to beat the F150), add some cringe product placements on some candy with affiliate links, and then sell some merch to top it off. Even if 0.01% of viewers buy a 20$ T-shirt, that 20k$ worth of sales lol. Sounds like they can easily make 100k$ back. Probably even more if they stretch this crap over multiple videos and shorts.
I think he was already a rich kid. I just find it annoying that people have enough money to destroy things just for clicks.
