This is nice and wholesome. But it should be noted that the people in this video shouldn't have to resort to Youtube charity to be able to walk again.

I had never heard of MrBeast until an hour ago. I looked him up and I'm dimly aware of drama surrounding him. But I decided to post his video anyway because, well, he did pay for 2,000 prostheses. Unless it's all a lie of course, but I doubt it...

I honestly just probably have an unreasonable amount of contempt for the guy, and it's also a running joke.

To your point, the gifting of the prosthetics is good to see.

Gonna have to buy back the love he lost somehow, and charity is bullet proof. Good for the people receiving the prosthetics but fuck him i ain't clicking that vid.
