Tom Brady, MrBeast Collaborates for Epic Football-Drone Challenge
In a surprising collaboration, YouTuber MrBeast teamed up with retired football great, Tom Brady, for a brand-new video that set new YouTube records, with the soon-to-be Las Vegas Raiders minority owner showing everyone that he still got it.
MrBeast is regarded as YouTube's biggest personalities, frequently collaborating with other big-name YouTubers for some outrageously viral videos. However, the influencer, whose real name is Jimmy Donaldson, managed to snag possibly the NFL's greatest quarterback in his latest video, which was shot on a $300 million yacht.
According to TMZ, MrBeast got Tom Brady to agree on a challenge where the former New England Patriots quarterback has to knock out his drone while it is hovering in the air around seven yards away with one of Brady's patented football throws. It was safe to say that Tom Brady still has it.
Before the throw, Brady was a bit apprehensive, admitting that he was not confident that he could land a hit. He even joked that he might think about unretiring if he did manage to hit the drone. However, the man that many consider the GOAT of American Football did, with his two children going crazy as their dad hit the drone.

The YouTuber also stated that his new video, "$1 vs $1,000,000,000 Yacht!." is now officially the second most viewed video on YouTube, with only the "slap heard around the world." also known as the incident where Will Smith slapped Chris Rock, having more views than it.
