Jimmy Donaldson, better known by his YouTube name, MrBeast, is one of the most famous people on the planet. Donaldson is currently on track to become the platform’s first billionaire, and it doesn’t seem like anything is stopping him.
The 26-year-old Donaldson started his MrBeast YouTube channel in early 2012. Back then, he was known as MrBeast6000 before eventually changing the channel’s name to simply MrBeast in 2015 to clear up confusion for fans.
Since the beginning of his channel, Donaldson has been working to become a business owner and philanthropist, and he is currently doing so successfully. His most recent endeavor, Lunchly, a collaboration between KSI and Logan Paul’s Prime and MrBeast’s Feastables chocolate bar, is already climbing the lunch kit leaderboards.
However, Jimmy may not be as innocent as we thought. He has recently been involved in numerous controversies surrounding the MrBeast YouTube channel. Now, an X user named Dextero has revealed that Jimmy got into a little legal trouble in 2018.

According to reports, Donaldson was not only going 122 MPH in a 70 MPH zone but also street racing. MrBeast was charged with Reckless Driving to Endanger and Speed Competition and subsequently deleted the video showing the BMW i8 he was reportedly driving.
While it’s unclear how Donaldson was punished after the offenses, according to the law in North Carolina, he was likely forced to pay a $250 fine. It was a slap on the wrist for the Youtuber, who hopefully learned his lesson due to the fine.
