MrBeast Has A 'Clone' Who Allows Him To 'Be In Multiple Places At Once'

MrBeast has shared that he has a team of 'clones', which helps him make so many huge YouTube videos. 

Wouldn't it be cool to have a clone to help us with our daily chores? 

MrBeast is one of the biggest YouTuber with highest number of subscribers, so it's no surprise that he has a big team working with him.

Whether these people are real clones or not is a different question, but it seems to be working great for his viewers.

MrBeast, whose real name is Jimmy Donaldson, hires people who think like him and then trains them very hard.

He calls this process 'cloning'.

In an interview with Lex Fridman, MrBeast said: "I have a lot of people in the company who are able to think like me and basically make decisions like I would make. 

"One example is Tyler [Conklin]. 

"Basically, for four or five years we just spent an absurd amount of time together and worked on every single video together... and the same thing with my CEO James, he lived with me for a couple of years. 

"I'm a big fan of finding people who are just super obsessed and all in that really just want to be great, and then just dumping everything I have in them."

Trusting someone to be the CEO of a company you started is a big deal.

So, it makes sense that MrBeast wanted to make sure James was the right person. 

But the training process was pretty intense.

He explains: "For two years, [James] lived with me and we probably talked, on average of those two years, seven hours a day... like really, just training his brain to think like me. 

"That way, he could just do things without my input, without me having to constantly watch over him or give him advice. 

"So for the first six months, he didn't do anything.

"He just studied me and studied everything I cared about and how I spoke. 

"For the next six months, he started taking on some responsibilities and now he can just run the company and I don't ever really have to check in on him.

"Like, most of the decisions he makes are exactly what I would do. 

"I call that cloning, I don't know that other people would."

He also added: "It just makes it where I don't have to be so involved in everything because I just have these people I know will think like I will. 

"So I can kind of almost be in multiple places at once, per se. 

"I still approve every idea before we film. 

"All the creative, I approve it, but I don't have to be in the weeds and nuances and do all this minor stuff."

So, MrBeast has found a way to teach others to think and decide like him, helping him handle his big YouTube channel more easily. 

Whether you call it 'cloning' or something else, it's clear that this method is working well for him.
