YouTuber MrBeast has divided people on social media after sharing a TikTok video in which he claimed to "tip" a waitress a brand-new car.
The most-followed YouTuber in the world with 139 million subscribers - whose real name is Jimmy Donaldson - is known for his extravagant stunts and shared footage of his latest act of kindness.
In a clip posted to the video-sharing platform on March 27, MrBeast appeared to be sitting at a restaurant speaking to his server named Amy - according to a caption on the post.
"What's the biggest tip you've ever gotten?", he asked her, to which Amy revealed to him that it was around $50.
Watch MrBeast's TikTok below:"Has anyone ever tipped a car?", Donaldson continued to ask before he handed the clearly stunned waitress a set of keys to a black Toyota sedan.
The server became skeptical and questioned whether the social media star was serious. At this point, he took her outside and unveiled to her a brand spanking new vehicle that he said was her "brand new car".
However, the car appeared to feature the word "Feastables" written on it - the name of Donaldson's chocolate brand - and the logo for his main YouTube channel also appeared on the car's hood.
Nevertheless, Amy appeared to tear up at the kind gesture and put her hand over her face. The YouTuber then said in response: "Oh wow, I wasn't expecting you to cry."
"I was literally late to work today because the Uber was slow," the waitress remarked as she got into the vehicle with Donaldson. "I'm in such shock right now. I don’t even know how to drive."
The video received a staggering 57.1 million views on the social media platform and was captioned: "Amy’s been getting to work without a car for months, thanks to you we changed that :-)"
Many users flooded the TikTok comment section with praise for the YouTuber and his astonishing tip, with one person penning: "Normal thing for someone like Mr. Beast."
A second user exclaimed: "You are the best!"
A third person added: "This guy just out here just putting faith back in humanity."
However over on Twitter, Mr.Beast faced criticism from people who claimed that the waitress' prize acts as a promotion for his brand and his chocolate line.
One user wrote: "So basically she has to do promotion for his company by driving the car. He also is getting a big tax write-off from this. But she gets a new(ish) car (with detailing [?]) instead of ubering. Oh, she has to pay for gas and insurance too."
Another interjected: "Don't get me wrong this is a nice thing but I wouldn’t love driving around a Feastables branded car. Maybe it was just for the video."
A third commented: "If Mr. Beast offered me a car plastered with his ugly corporate logo I would drive it directly into the side of a police station."
Donaldson has become well-known for his elaborate videos where he gives away large sums of money. Last year, he donated at least $3.2 million - as well as a $2.5 million jet and a private island - in challenge prizes, according to the YouTube videos he posted, per Insider.
His generous acts are often supported but in January, he defended himself against complaints over a controversial clip in which he paid for 1,000 people to have sight-restoring cataract surgery due to worries that patients were turning to a social media star to solve a medical problem.
He responded to the backlash, writing: "Twitter - Rich people should help others with their money. Me - Okay, I'll use my money to help people and I promise to give away all my money before I die. Every single penny. Twitter - MrBeast bad."
The tweet garnered 784.3K likes, with many people and prominent influencers sharing messages of support to YouTuber for his charitable efforts.
