MrBeast pits people aged 1 to 100 against each other in new video which cost 'millions'
MrBeast has just released one of his most expensive and creative videos ever that almost broke a YouTube record and has been showered with praise for the quality of production and the amount of money poured into it. The 25-year-old YouTuber, the real name Jimmy Donaldson, has returned to one of his big-scale projects for his latest video after recently embarking on philanthropic endeavours such as helping people see and hear again. His new video was very different in comparison as was similar to something that you might see in Squid Game. It involved 100 contestants aged 1 to 100 all trapped inside clear plastic boxes. Sign up to our free Indy100 weekly newsletter The idea is to see how long they could all last while inside the boxes until only one contestant remains with challenges arising to whittle down the players quicker. The winner will receive $500k as a reward. The video clocks in at 25 minutes and all things aside it is a genuinely well put together and compelling watch. Ages 1 - 100 Fight For $500,000 www.youtube.com At the time of writing, the video has been viewed more than 43 million times on YouTube which Donaldson claimed almost broke the record for the number of views on the platform within 24 hours. In the comments Donaldson added that he and his team had spent "millions of dollars and months working on this video, I hope you all liked it." It's fair to say that it has gone down well with his fans. One person wrote: "This is one of the best Mr. Beast videos ive ever seen. It had the competitiveness and drama that we expect from challenges but added great representation throughout all the ages and some amazing emotional and heartwarming roller coasters. Well done!" Another added: "This is by far my most favorite challenge from Jimmy!" A third said: "This was actually epic. Way to take elements of other reality shows and make it your own." We won't giveaway any spoilers but its worth sticking around for the entire video which has both a tense and wholesome ending. Have your say in our news democracy.

This four question IQ test will reveal how smart you are
At some stage in everyone's life, it would be nice to be considered intelligent or at least in possession of a high IQ. You can take all the IQ tests that you want and read the most complex books available to you but there must be an easier way of gauging how smart you are. Luckily for you and me, the great folks over at AsapSCIENCE have identified four questions that could help determine how much intelligence you possess. They assess your emotional intelligence, your verbal and non-verbal abilities, your musical-rhythmic intelligence and your visual intelligence. Sign up to our new free Indy100 weekly newsletter To partake in this mini-quiz watch the video below and listen carefully. How did you get on? Harder than you thought they would be, right? Well, as you may have noticed, there isn't one particular way to understand just how intelligent you are, as IQ can cover multiple traits and subjects. So, while you might be really clever at recognising whether the tone is right in a piece of music, you may have difficulty identifying the correct shape in a line-up of many. Of course, there is a chance that you got all of those questions right - but don't feel disheartened if you didn't. Intelligence can come in various forms and is sometimes assisted by your personal background and upbringing, and can't always be easily pinpointed through an IQ test.

Google Street View catches couple 'having sex' on roadside
A suspicious couple appear to have been caught in the act - on Google Street View. The man and woman were standing on a vacant plot of land full of rubbish. The duo apparently travelled to the secluded area on a motorbike to enjoy a frisky encounter away from prying eyes. The woman appears to be half-naked while the man seems to be zipping himself up. They both seem to notice the Google Street View car. The couple was caught in the act in the neighbourhood of Paseo de Santa Fe, Juárez, Mexico. Google uses vehicles equipped with high-resolution cameras to capture every corner of the planet for their Street View service. However, the cameras occasionally capture people in compromising situations. In Mexico, residents have been filmed brawling, face planting the ground, and taking part in sex acts by the roadside, along with other unflattering incidents. Those captured in awkward situations by the cameras can ask Google for the images to be removed. Offended citizens can fill out a form in the Google support section and mention that the images were published without their consent.

'Airpods' spotted on performer at 2008 Olympics
A throwback clip from the 2008 Olympics has stirred up a debate over a time travel conspiracy theory as someone appeared to be wearing an AirPod - despite the earphone launching years later. In the clip posted by Justin (@yessirbrother) back in 2020, he noted in the caption how he had been "just appreciating the Beijing opening ceremony," when the camera panned to one particular performed which had a white plastic earphone in his right ear yet none of the other performers had this. The shape and colour look similar to that of an AirPod, but given that this product wasn't launched by Apple until eight years later in 2016, people have questioned how it appears to be in a clip from 2008. Sign up to our free Indy100 weekly newsletter "Yooo, I think I've found a real time traveller though. Beijing Olympics, 2008. This guy got AirPods though," the TikTok said. "China gotta explain," he added. The video was from the 2008 Beijing Olympics and was uploaded to YouTube in 2019. @yessirbrother you know I was just appreciating the Beijing opening ceremony until #timetraveler #government #cinematics #WhatWouldHarleyDo #selflove #fyp #foryou Since then, the brief video has received 3.9m views, 542,000 likes, along with thousands of comments from people who had a wide range of reactions. One person said: "AirPods came out in 2016 though," while another wrote: "I‘m confused." Someone else added: "That is crazy....No one else has AirPod," and a fourth commented: "YOO I JUST CHECKED ITS REAL." However, those weren't quite as convinced and believed there was a reasonable explanation for this. One person noted: "Bluetooth earbuds existed for a long time before AirPods." "Once again not real. They are wired, you can't see because of the quality," anther person said, Elsewhere, a 'Nike trainer' was spotted in 17th century painting. Have your say in our news democracy.
