MrBeast's 20 Channels vs Every US State's Population

This video compares the subscribers of MrBeast's 20 YouTube channels with the population of every US state and the whole US, from 2012 to September 2026. Data sources: YouTube channel pages, watch pages, search results and embedded players archived by the Internet Archive, Social Blade, Wikidata, SPEAKRJ, Alien Art, Youtubers.me and Whatstat for subscribers; U.S. Census Bureau state population estimates (intercensal 2010–2019 and Vintage 2025, as of July 1) for population. Populations are drawn between annual estimates, and after July 2025, when no newer estimate is out yet, each state grows at its average annual rate in the University of Virginia Weldon Cooper Center's 2026 state projections. YouTube shows subscriber counts rounded down to three significant figures, so the counters move in a straight line between monthly observations, as do a few months without an archived count for the smaller channels. The list on the right ranks MrBeast's 20 channels by how many states (with D.C.) each has passed. Subscribers come from all over the world, so this is a comparison of size, and Puerto Rico and the other territories are left out, as in the Census total. Flags are each state's flag at the time, including Mississippi's retired design with the Confederate battle emblem.
