[00:00] In this video, I gathered Kevin Hart, Paris Hilton, Howie Mandel, Holy mackerel. And I trapped them all in this red circle.

[00:14] [cheering] And that million dollars will be going to a charity of the winner’s choosing. Be behind the red line.

[00:26] And I watch your show. I watch Impractical Jokers all the time. Pleasure. I love you, I'm a big fan. And we didn't get just one member, but all four

[00:41] of the pop rock global phenomenon, Five Seconds of Summer. We also have Diplo and The Chainsmokers, whose songs, collectively, I think Howie Mandel really is tryna do some mind games by sitting on the ground.

[00:57] You've done some crazy stuff in your life. I've seen you get nailed by hockey pucks. Depends on what kinda hot sauce.

[01:10] Have you ever seen this many celebrities in a YouTube video? inspired by my ten-episode series, Beast Games. Let's kick off the first game.

[01:26] Open the wall! Oh, yeah, yeah. Yeah, ok! That's not just one, but five shiny cars, including this $250,000 Lamborghini.

[01:44] For game one, if you manage to throw a dodge ball through any one of those five hoops, -Oh my God! -No way!

[01:57] All thirty of you have the opportunity But if you step up and throw the ball and miss the circle, Open the circle!

[02:13] It's like Fortnite. So which one of you is going to risk elimination I got this, man.

[02:27] Comedian Jay Pharoah is our first contender. -What’s going on, man? -Aw, man! -It's gonna be that one. -That Tesla?

[02:41] What a idiot! [chanting] Jay! Jay! I knew that was gonna happen.

[02:56] Open the portal. Y’all got me going to Heaven! Oh, no. We good.

[03:09] Calum from Five Seconds of Summer is giving it a shot. You either win her a car or you're eliminated. You got this, lock in.

[03:22] [group exclaims] You did us proud, babe. That was very brave. I'm going in.

[03:34] [group exclaims] Ced, you didn't even wind up, man. And I was starting to wonder if any one of these celebrities…

[03:47] would win their fan a car. -Oh, no. We're down to a Chainsmoker. -[laughing] Yeah. Diplo, you're gonna do it?

[04:00] I really want to give away one of these cars. You know what? I think it's me. Will Diplo win his biggest fan a car?

[04:17] [cheering] Diplo is back in the game! Oh, you got a car! You got a car!

[04:30] Everyone brace yourself for game two. It won't be as easy. Someone early on's gonna get sloppy, and they're gonna get eliminated.

[04:44] Alright. What do you think's about to happen? I feel like there's gonna be something psychological. -Connect Four on fire is a mental game? -Yeah, I think.

[04:57] Yeah! Switch the floor to black. The circle is no longer red, which means you can all stand on it.

[05:09] Twenty-six of you remain. That number is about to drop quite a bit. Change the floor! you get to decide between playing a strong game or a smart game.

[05:25] So if you step in this half, you're locked into a game of strength. But if you step into this half over here, you'll be locked into a game of smarts. Are you a strong celebrity or are you a smart celebrity?

[05:39] I feel like I'm both. I feel like I'm strong and I'm wise. Look at me. What do you think? -I'm going strength. -Done.

[05:51] [NBA Announcer] Howard throws it down! is deciding between strong or smart. You see this?

[06:04] Dude, you're good at games. I think you should go smart. But at the same time, you know, I've been working out, baby. Everyone here looks quite fit.

[06:16] Let's go. is because in Season 2 of Beast Games, 100 of the smartest people on the planet.

[06:28] It is better than anything I've ever done. We're going to be kicking things off with the smart game. And relax. Just relax. Have a seat.

[06:42] Change the floor! I need everyone who chose the smart game to pick a star. [Marsai Martin] Wait, what is the game?

[06:55] [Yvonne Orji] Oh. If anybody's got a little bit of anxiety, this is normally when it kicks in.

[07:07] Beside each of you is ten blocks. while you try to memorize the pattern. and the six smartest celebrities

[07:21] to recreate my pattern with their blocks from memory will move on. The first color in the pattern is… green!

[07:45] Why are we applauding for that? He took a green-- Alright, everyone. The second color is blue.

[08:00] Yellow. Alright, the last three. Yes. Go.

[08:13] Are you-- Kevin, you got it? Alright. And-- Alright, go for it! Go for it! Start building.

[08:26] First six to complete it move on! Oh, we got one finisher. There are only five spots remaining.

[08:40] Oh! Yung Gravy has finished second, and Audrey Nuna is third. Green… Blue…

[08:52] Sal Vulcano is fourth. If you lose this game, you are out of the competition. And that's it! Howie Mandel is our final finisher.

[09:07] If your star is green, you're moving on. You recreated the pattern first. Dang!

[09:22] Maybe you shoulda done the strong game. No, no. Tiffany. What Dwight did, he recorded it.

[09:35] I did. I recorded it on my camera. Message to all the kids at home: If you are going to cheat… Ok, did anyone else cheat in here?

[09:50] Howie did it on his whole phone. It turns out Howie Mandel had snuck in his phone You know why I did it?

[10:04] Yeah, say that's terrible. Bye, guys. I'm gonna find me a husband!

[10:17] And with that, 21 celebrities now remain. But remember, only one is gonna win the million dollars for their charity. so strong contestants, come on up to the floor.

[10:30] Uh… Push ups. Push ups would be great. [group exclaims]

[10:42] Aw, you’ve gotta be kidding me. Never mind, I'm out. Oh, no, the pole? This is the worst! [Ally Brooke] Shut up!

[10:55] [Jimmy] Alright, change the floor. As you can see, there's no longer a red circle. Everyone just pick a pole. They're all the same. Choose a pole.

[11:09] Saw this pole instantly. I went, that’s my pole. you will all stand wrapped around the pole. Kevin, you want to show ‘em it?

[11:22] [Jimmy] So that's it. Kevin, why are you shaking, buddy? Why are these calves shaking over here? Alright. This is gonna be terrible.

[11:36] Let's start the strength game. Three, two, one… First sneaks to touch the ground are eliminated.

[11:50] Ok. Everyone is on the poles. And honestly, I think people are already starting to struggle up there. No!

[12:03] I should've gone smart. I’m Nigerian, I got two degrees! Rel, get up, Rel! I’ll let him focus.

[12:16] [Tareq] Oh! He fell. Lil Rel! Winning one million dollars for your charities isn't going to be easy. Is this what you thought you’d be doing when you said yes?

[12:30] No! I never wanted to go on Survivor. I can't do that show. we partnered with Survivor to do an entire episode, I love it and Jeff Probst. I hate you for creating this stunt!

[12:47] -Yeah. -Picture him, but someone a little taller. Alright, you two are WWE Hall of Famers… We did leg day yesterday, so that's hurting.

[13:00] We are literally at a point where you’re starting to see people break. Josh is fighting for dear life. I hope we stay in touch after this.

[13:13] Wait. How are you gonna get out of this position? Do you have any advice for your sister? [Kevin] There you go.

[13:25] [Kevin] Oh, no! -Are you even struggling? -No. [groaning]

[13:38] Only two more eliminations remain. Is everyone eating our brand new MrBeast and Jack Link's Beef Sticks? -Can I have another one? -Another Beef Stick? Of course.

[13:51] Hey, if you want to try them, it’s available at these retailers. Be stronger than the two weakest. Oh, we lost one. No, you were so close!

[14:06] You guys have to outlast one more person. It's been really nice knowing you. Ah, no!

[14:19] You're good! The game is over. You're good. All I’m gonna say to all you smarties out there, Everybody wave goodbye. Losers, follow me.

[14:33] -Thanks, Jimmy. Have fun, bud. -Thanks for coming out. and we're about to eliminate a lot more in a second. Oh, same. There's no more friendship.

[14:46] You crushed that, too. It was, but I could not have done what you did. I saw the season of Survivor where they had that.

[14:59] in the money over there while you were doing that. Who do you trust in this game? We're showing up right now.

[15:12] From Mexico. He's from India. I hope we team up. I'll tell you this. The person that people want out?

[15:26] I don't care about how any of these people feel about me. Alex's Lemonade Stand, pediatric cancer. There is nothing-- nothing I won't do to win this.

[15:38] There's nothing better than watching competitions happen, flourish, 'Cause that's when, now you gotta really compete. If you can cheat and get away with it, I think it’s brilliant.

[15:51] Eventually the friendships turn to… Alright, can I have you guys up front? Before I reveal game three,

[16:05] Once you have your team of three, just stand in a square. Musicians unite. Can we go in pink? or just, you throw, random people in a cube.

[16:19] This is just basically, like-- This is the outcast. -I was born in England. -Ok. Obviously, you guys are all really famous musicians.

[16:31] -Oh, really? -With our minds. We all made eye contact and just said yeah. What would you say the pros of this team is?

[16:44] Now that everyone has a team, cut the lights! How did you do that? [Kevin] No, Steve-O. Don't-- No, no, no,

[16:58] It's ok. Here we go. [chuckling] -[CarryMinati] Let's go! -[Steve-O] Yeah!

[17:10] Everyone! You ready to meet the judges? Our first judge is a global icon. She once hosted a cooking show.

[17:25] Open the portal! She is a world famous celebrity. What's up, everybody?

[17:38] Your second judge, an Emmy winning, arguably most famous chef on the planet… I don't know how we landed her. This is crazy.

[17:53] Stop, stop. Stop it! Oh my gosh! [Kevin] Yes. I told Kevin he could bring whoever he wanted.

[18:06] You know, he gave me examples like Gordon Ramsay Told him to surprise me. When you told me that, I got offended because you were talking to me,

[18:21] I'll be the judge. No, jokes aside. You got Gordon Ramsay, right? If I'm here, why am I searching for other names?

[18:35] I'ma sit behind there, and I'ma eat the food Alright, we have two award-winning professional judges, and then Kevin Hart.

[18:47] -No, it’s-- -Jimmy. Don't start. Alright. Contestants, each of you have a golden platter. and present it to the judges,

[19:02] Two teams with the lowest scores will be eliminated. What do you want to make? Um… Oh…

[19:14] That’s gonna be easiest, gonna be tastiest. While most teams got to work gathering ingredients,

[19:26] And then I take it off, which is a vibe. [Eugenio Derbez] Ay! Police, police! -You took all the mushrooms? -It’s strategy!

[19:40] But that really didn't work out for Howie. -Fried chicken sandwiches. -Bruh, what! One of the first things I ever made was her chocolate pizza.

[19:53] What are we thinking over here? I don't know necessarily that they're gonna go together. Ok. Is it spaghetti and meatballs? Is it--

[20:05] Beast balls? Ten minutes are gone. You better get cooking. That's my biggest pet peeve.

[20:18] [blowing nose] Wait, I thought you were making fajitas. Why are you boiling it? -That's not how you do the chicken. -[Eugenio Derbez] No, no--

[20:32] I'ma get a new chicken, we’re gonna fry it. A chocolate pizza. was a chocolate pizza because of you.

[20:44] Ok, but what are you doing to that dough? Oh, no, no, no. Howie! Don't! No!

[20:57] Howie, we can’t sabotage. I don't know if you've tried one of these, but these Jack Link's-- It’s so delicious.

[21:12] I don't even know if you noticed it, but, yeah, that's our teriyaki beef stick. It turns out to be a MrBeast beef stick! which is why we just launched our brand new MrBeast Jack Link's beef sticks.

[21:29] 100% real beef. It's amazing. Oh my god. It’s a broken heart.

[21:42] We should probably be plating in the next, like, 2-3 minutes. Oh, dear Jesus. Or should I go more to the side so we can put our sweet there?

[21:59] I would I would get some of that on there 'cause it looks like a little turdy. Yup, I think we go a little heavier on the sauce. [Ally Brooke] Oh my God!

[22:14] Yo, what about your drink? Let's go, let's go! Fast, fast! But you're like, well, what's so bad about it really?

[22:28] Three, two, one. I think we lost. Can we just go through the portal now? They're eating their own food. That's a great sign.

[22:41] We have before you today an Asian-American fusion chicken sandwich. As well as a fresh cucumber salad for your liking.

[22:55] [unintelligible] Oh, crunchy! That's hot.

[23:07] Judges, are you ready to reveal the score? Mine's is an 8. Alright, Orange. Bring it on over.

[23:20] We're gonna be taking you out of France into Italy. We also have the Giada Burrata. And then also, the spaghetti with Beast balls.

[23:34] Those are your Beast balls. I'm not getting as much flavor as I want out of the meatball. Is this like a cracker?

[23:47] Mmm. 6.5, 7… 10? You guys scored a 26.5. They scored a 24.

[24:00] For our dish what we've done is we've created chicken fajitas This is good. I'm not mad at this. Yay! Let's go!

[24:14] Bro! Let's go! -Woo! -Let's go! 5, 6, 7, 8.

[24:27] Whoa! Cold Bolognese on cold pasta that was ready 40 minutes ago. [blowing nose]

[24:41] -We just want a 10, a 9, and a 9. -There was no sneeze! Did you-- You went with the meat? -[Kevin] Let's do it. -Kevin, try the pasta.

[24:55] 3, 2, 1… Reveal! You guys scored a 22, the lowest score so far. If you do the math, that means they're now eliminated.

[25:09] What was that? Why’d you leave me out there? They made you make your own taco. Turn the lights red.

[25:22] Give me the recipe if you can-- No! Man, listen. Hey, man. I didn't mean it. Please man! Let's let me-- Let me finish the show man.

[25:36] Brace yourself, judges. Yellow team, come on up. known as the Poo Poo Platter.

[25:49] My grandmother, her name is-- was Melissa Mendel. Her dream in life was to win a cooking contest. she was hit by a bus.

[26:04] On her deathbed, she said, "Howie, take my recipe." We put an hour into this. Security! Security!

[26:19] It was supposed to be a chocolate pizza! -One, two, three… -Reveal it. Zero, one, zero…

[26:33] This is a legendary crash out by Howie. This was the best, see you later. I got to drive him, so I am self eliminating.

[26:49] -Only I can do that. -Oh, really? No, they did it 'cause I said it. And with that, you are the final eight!

[27:03] Cut the light! now, only three remain. -Woo! -Yeah, let's go.

[27:18] you guys will be enemies. It's like Hunger Games. If you guys wanna turn around and look at that wall back there,

[27:30] the mechanism that we're gonna be using to eliminate all but three of you. Guards, open the wall!

[27:43] Bring it on in. and it will be on them to decide who is eliminated and who moves on.

[27:57] will be moving on to the final game and competing for one million dollars. is a phone which you can ask for anything you want.

[28:11] [Jimmy] Uh… Kevin What do we ask for that's really crazy? Here we go.

[28:23] Um. Close it. [clears throat] One of us leaves.

[28:35] Nobody wants to do that, but we have to decide mutually. Yeah. [laughs] So do we wanna do it based on a coin or do we want to play a game?

[28:49] this is the most brutal thing we filmed in Season 1 and in Season 2, How long, on Season 1 and Season 2, did you have people in the Cube? Took them that long to come up with the decision.

[29:03] I'll get it for them. Can, uh, we get a masseuse for a second while we think about this? -Darts? -I mean, if we both suck at darts,

[29:17] Can we get darts, puppies, Connect Four and air hockey? I know how to play air hockey. Jiu jitsu. Your wrestling, grappling.

[29:30] Let's ask for a clown. Just see what happens. The teams were starting to get creative. How good are you with MMA? Wrestling?

[29:45] I gotta wrestle him? But as for Brie and Gravy, and without having played any games at all,

[29:59] You won't do it. [group exclaims] That was good stuff, right?

[30:12] There was deception involved. How are you two deciding who moves on? And with that, we had our first cube elimination,

[30:25] and Gravy took the win on their first of three games as well. I think we've decided on rock ‘em sock ’em robots. -Hey, Tareq. -How's it going?

[30:38] They're the best. Guards! We need MrBeast Jack Link's. and grab my 100% beef MrBeast and Jack Link's Beef Sticks

[30:53] Very easy. Let's keep moving faster here. This has been so real. Oh wait, you have 53. I have 29.

[31:09] that meant he needed at least 25 points to win I wanted won at hockey. Puppy would solve this right now.

[31:21] Right hand green, you guys got it? -Whoa. -Left foot red? Left foot red.

[31:36] Chain yourself up! or else we’re never gonna talk to you again. Oh my gosh.

[31:51] to secure their spot into the final game. And deciding the tie breaker for the second spot was this puppy? Ok, so before you put the dog down,

[32:07] and then let the dog run to the winner. -This is how we’re deciding. -Yeah.

[32:24] But you know what? I don't even care. 'Cause you are so cute. It's ok. You know what? It was a lot of fun.

[32:40] it still feels weird to, you know, lock someone handcuffed in a room. there was only one spot left for the one million dollar final game.

[32:52] But to get a win right here? Alright, so here we have our MMA.

[33:04] these two decided to put their chances all on the line, for one single round of rock ‘em sock ’em robots. He went in with both fists.

[33:18] That’s it. Alright. I got-- I knocked out, but I was so close to winning. End of the video bro.

[33:32] All of the other cubes are done, it's down to this. One of you is gonna make the final three. It all comes down to rock ‘em sock ’em.

[33:45] Alright… Ready? [slow-mo] Who's gonna win?

[33:57] Oh my gosh, that was just instant. It's a good game. On you.

[34:13] We have Steve-O. You guys are here for something bigger than you, for your causes. For this competition, I wanna help people.

[34:27] They go to places where medical attention isn't, My charity is Noise for Now. How about you over here?

[34:41] So basically, if kids didn't have a chance to start school, It's an insanely amazing organization. have a cause that is important to you that you're competing for.

[34:56] But this final game is gonna determine which charity wins one million dollars. Raise the wall, baby.

[35:09] In front of you… One has a million dollars inside of it. One at a time, you're gonna go up there and pick a briefcase,

[35:22] Whichever briefcase has a million dollars, your charity will get it. I’m ready. All that matters is which briefcase you have

[35:37] Are you ready? We'll see you two in a moment. [laughs]

[35:52] The other two have nothing. -I like the #1. -Okay. You know, I might do three.

[36:06] Now that you've chosen, go ahead and look inside. But for now, only you will see inside it.

[36:19] I mean, close it. It's a pet rabbit. Oh, open the wall!

[36:34] You were second to exit the cubes. You can choose any case you want. You can even steal Audrey's. Close the wall. Sorry, Steve-O.

[36:52] Very heavy. [sniffing] It smells like money.

[37:06] Just wondering where the cameras are aimed. Yeah. Alright, fair. I did like the idea of three, but…

[37:25] Ok. It's on you. Let's see if we can read his face.

[37:38] But now that you know what's in there, if yours is empty, And you both can tell Steve-O whatever you want. Open the wall!

[37:54] Steve-O, Steve-O, Steve-O. Boy, do we have some fun for you? You can steal her briefcase, thus forcing her to take #2, Or you can just pick #2.

[38:09] because this million dollars is on the line. I knew that Audrey was gonna be difficult to read. She is a deadpan individual.

[38:22] Basically, is your integrity more important to you or less important to you They're equally important to me.

[38:36] Ok. Alright. You got the money? [laughing] And is he saying that because he does and he doesn't want you to steal it?

[38:52] Or is he saying it because he thinks that's what he'd say if he did have it? even though he doesn't have it. I mean, the not maintaining eye contact.

[39:05] made me feel like he might have it. I think he might have it. Perhaps?

[39:18] Mhm. I think you're gonna get more out of Gravy than her. Yeah, I'm leaning heavily towards stealing her's.

[39:32] Excited. When you looked inside this briefcase, was it a piece of paper that indicated whether or not it was the million bucks?

[39:47] When I looked in the briefcase, I saw a pet rabbit. Alright, you know what? I'm going with my first instinct. I'm locking it in.

[40:00] That means this is yours. Open your briefcase!

[40:18] He stole it! He caught you! You gave it away! Yeah, you did it!
