What the...
2
My heart's pounding.
3
What's wrong?
4
On a random
5
Zoom call in 2021, we came up with a crazy idea.
6
What if we were the guys to make Mr. Beast his own life movie?
7
Something's going on with Kurt, I don't know.
8
I'm kind of scared.
9
But never in our lives would we have thought that after four years, it would lead to this.
10
We just gotta DM.
11
Howdy.
12
Mr. Beast.
13
Oh wow, I feel it now too.
14
What are you gonna say?
15
Why?
16
Why now?
17
Is that actually Mr. Beast?
18
Yes. So weird.
19
Mr. Beast wants to chat.
20
He's ready!
21
We got that Mr. Beast DM!
22
Heard you're making a movie.
23
So, we should probably tell you about this crazy idea.
24
We want to make the world's first feature -length biopic about a YouTuber.
25
Imagine Mr. Beast's life as a movie.
26
But not a documentary we mean a scripted narrative movie with an actor playing Mr. Beast.
27
And not the Mr. Beast you're thinking of.
28
We want to tell the untold story of who
29
Jimmy Donaldson really is.
30
Now this idea is wild, but what's even crazier is the story of how two filmmaker brothers from Australia with zero connections
31
and zero experience making an actual movie quit everything
32
and move to the other side of the world all because they decided they'd be the ones to try pull this off.
33
We don't have money, we don't have clout.
34
We have an amazing idea, but that's all we have.
35
We're talking about us by the way.
36
We're about to show you the unseen footage of how we started with nothing and ended up here.
37
Somehow hijacking the attention of the world's biggest YouTuber.
38
He actually just called.
39
But will this call with Jimmy be everything we hoped for? Do you hear me?
40
Hello?
41
Or a complete disaster?
42
This is episode one of our journey to making our first feature film.
43
The Mr. Beast movie.
44
You could say this is where the story started.
45
But starting here would be completely brushing over the reason why this idea is so valuable to us.
46
Growing up we both had the same dream.
47
We both wanted to make movies.
48
We used the built -in camera on our parents MacBook and posted our movies to YouTube.
49
They wouldn't get any views but we just loved creating them.
50
We made a lot of movies until one day
51
we were pulling up YouTube to show our family a movie we made
52
and to our surprise one of our movies hit the youtube algorithm
53
we watched it climb to two million views hi we went viral
54
we tried everything we could to capitalize on it to try
55
and make a career out of this but it just didn't work out
56
but it did open our eyes to the way we could achieve our dream youtube fast forward a few years
57
and the need to earn a living put our dream on hold for a long time
58
we found ourselves shooting everything but the movies we wanted to make.
59
We needed something to wake us up.
60
Then lockdown hit.
61
We were forced out of work and had a choice to make.
62
Wait till everything went back to normal or use this small window of opportunity to try again.
63
So we started this channel.
64
We were posting movies again and trying to figure out how we could make them go viral.
65
Trying to come up with the most foolproof strategy we could think of.
66
To finally start our career in making movies.
67
What is the craziest thing that we can do with short films on YouTube?
68
Some days it felt like we were onto something.
69
This is the start of us just doing it.
70
And others it felt like we might never break through.
71
You got any ideas?
72
But on one of those days, we came up with this.
73
I think it's an amazing tactical decision.
74
The first time I thought of it, I was like, let's make a full feature film about Mr. Beast.
75
Like, imagine that coming out for free on YouTube.
76
People would be like, oh, have you seen that?
77
Mr. Beast film.
78
Movie?
79
Mr. Beast movie.
80
Yeah, that's definitely the most interesting thing about it like it will get out there because it's a clickable movie.
81
Who wouldn't click on that?
82
Yeah.
83
We could tell this was a great idea, potentially our bulletproof plan, and we just couldn't believe no one was doing this already.
84
But an idea so ambitious brings up a lot of question marks.
85
We're from an ordinary suburb in Australia.
86
We've never made a feature film before.
87
Why would we be the guys to do this over a massive Hollywood studio?
88
How would we fund it?
89
And how would we get this idea to Mr. Beast?
90
Should we invest in this and try and figure that stuff out?
91
I just don't want to slow us down at all.
92
We started questioning if maybe this idea was too big.
93
So you don't think it should be like a short five minute film?
94
I don't think so.
95
Because that's something we could do like this week.
96
Because the mentality of just like, let's get it done, that always helps us.
97
I agree with that, but then at the same time I don't want to rush it.
98
Like we're only stopping ourselves when we don't believe we can do it.
99
So we finished the call agreeing that it would be a 30 minute short film.
100
All we knew was the next step was to write a script.
101
All right, vlogging time.
102
We're in the common room of Lucas's apartment complex.
103
What's up?
104
What do we do here?
105
We pretty much spend our days writing scripts.
106
What do you want me to say?
107
Act excited about the film.
108
We sucked at talking to the camera back then.
109
I'm working on the final scene of the Mr. B short film.
110
This is the video that kind of inspired it.
111
We found something unique in Jimmy's story here that truly resonated with us as filmmakers this really excited us
112
Because now this was more than just a great marketing.
113
We have a real story yeah, so then we were like let's write a film about that story because It's kind of untold,
114
but it's pretty crazy
115
It's been helpful to have like videos to go off
116
But at the moment everything we've written is just blurted out and it's probably crap
117
So we have to rewrite it hard after a few months we got the script in a really good place
118
and we knew it was time to put
119
this idea out into the world with the goal of maybe
120
getting mr beast attention explain what you're doing just about to make a youtube short about our mr beast script
121
so this right here is a script about mr beast's life me
122
and my brother actually wrote it
123
and it's a full -on movie script probably about 25 minutes
124
in length the really cool thing is we're actually going to turn this into a movie
125
so follow if you want to see it cool i'll send it to you
126
and you edit it sure
127
we were a little confused why the internet wasn't taking to our idea as quickly as we thought
128
but looking back it makes sense mr beast just hit 100 million subscribers we thought to ourselves this story is so good
129
this should be a movie we make movies
130
so for the past few months
131
while we've been making other short films
132
we've actually been writing the script in the background there it is finished subscribe
133
if you want to see his life turn into a movie
134
these shorts were an absolute master class on what not to do.
135
Yeah, so imagine if we made a video pitching to Mr. Beast, saying, Mr. Beast, we wrote a movie about you,
136
and then asked kind of like for a shout out or like to be funded like $100 ,000 or something.
137
Yeah, I think that's cool. Be honest.
138
We had such a warped view of how value exchange works.
139
Why would Jimmy give us a shout out and $100 ,000 just for asking?
140
We can even end it by saying, we're gonna make this either way,
141
but you have like 30 days to get back to us if you want to make this production quality better.
142
So now the plan was to threaten Jimmy.
143
You have 30 days to give me my money.
144
Also, around this time, everyone was begging
145
Jimmy for collabs and giving him low -effort gifts to try and get him in their video.
146
People are just giving me stuff, but it's just so low effort,
147
and it's not original, and it's just so they can slap my face on a thumbnail.
148
That's why I say no to basically everything.
149
So we made a conscious decision early on to avoid doing anything close to that.
150
This idea felt too valuable to treat it like that.
151
We have an amazing idea, right?
152
But that's all we have.
153
We don't have money.
154
We don't have clout and we don't really have connections.
155
So we need to use our idea as leverage to get those things, right?
156
So instead we turn to the more traditional
157
Hollywood method of pitching the idea to the right people.
158
In hopes this would be a quicker way to get our idea to Jimmy.
159
So we need to make a pitch deck.
160
We needed to make a pitch deck.
161
We've been working on something.
162
We've been working on something big.
163
And if you don't know, a pitch deck is basically a concise visual representation of your idea.
164
We've been working on this thing for the past few weeks.
165
Month even, months.
166
We've written a script, done a mood board, posters, a synopsis.
167
If this works, this is going to be the greatest thing we've just pulled up at it, bro.
168
This will be a very long interview on Colin and Samir.
169
Let's have a look at the pitch deck.
170
Imagine Mr. Beast's life as a movie.
171
The untold origin story of an awkward teen making YouTube history.
172
An invitation to break the internet.
173
It's about someone famous, but it's a story that means a lot to us.
174
We want to be the ones to make it.
175
Even that's part of the story.
176
Hopefully they just want to jump on board and help us make it happen
177
So we started creating a list of emails
178
that it would be perfect to send to then we actually had to click send
179
Once I send this my dopamine hits gonna go through the roof
180
To me this is like when people say just go out there
181
and do something chase your dreams actually do stuff sending this email feels like
182
Chasing I feel like I'm actually taking a step forward Are we doing it?
183
Kurt?
184
Are you sending me?
185
Yes, click send
186
We said that.
187
This is a foolproof plan.
188
Beast, it's good to meet you.
189
One of those people, for example, was Daryl Eves.
190
Daryl Eves is the YouTube guru who mentored Mr. Beast and also the producer that made
191
The Chosen happen.
192
If you click on my bio, it says, Hi, Daryl.
193
I got Twitter just to contact you.
194
We have a crazy plan to turn Mr. Beast's life into a movie.
195
I think we need a chat.
196
Come on.
197
Should we just risk it?
198
Let's just do it.
199
Let's pray.
200
Let's pray.
201
Thank you, Lord, for this opportunity to chase our dreams and to do crazy things, all for your glory.
202
Turns out...
203
Not one person replied and to be honest we were pretty down about that.
204
We started realizing it wasn't going to be that easy.
205
Maybe we hadn't fully committed yet and maybe that's what's holding us back.
206
We finally built up the courage to believe in our original bigger idea.
207
Meaning this was going to be our first feature film.
208
And if so our next attempt had to be bigger too.
209
We wanted to try to prove to the world and Jimmy that we were the guys to do this.
210
Even if we only just started believing it.
211
We began playing the long game.
212
Growing an audience from scratch who believed in our goal.
213
We started by writing a short script about another youtuber's story that inspired us, ARAC.
214
Then we turned that script into what felt like a real movie trailer.
215
But when the trailer didn't perform well on our channel,
216
we came up with a last minute idea to surprise him with it at his 10 million subscriber pizza party.
217
Thinking maybe a video about that would blow up our channel.
218
But because that party's all the way in LA, we'd only make it if we left immediately.
219
Should we just do it?
220
How fun would it be right now just to jump on a plane,
221
Go to the airport and like we're going to America to try to chase our dream.
222
But the idea came too late.
223
We somehow missed the last flight to LA.
224
It's gone.
225
We just sprinted with so much bags.
226
We paid like $3 ,000 just for nothing.
227
Already.
228
We lost it.
229
What a weird morning.
230
Except it didn't feel like a total failure.
231
That was the day we actually proved to ourselves just how far we're willing to go.
232
The wind wasn't getting on the plane, it was getting out of our comfort zone.
233
If we could just try this again with another YouTuber, surely this idea would work.
234
We are at the airport.
235
We booked new flights to the US, but this time for Ryan Tregan.
236
How are we going to see Ryan Tregan?
237
I don't know.
238
In the same trip to go shoot it, we'd have to edit it, post it, and try to find Ryan and show it to him.
239
Ryan, we're Filmmaker Brothers from Australia.
240
We flew halfway across the world to show you something.
241
We're turning your life into a movie.
242
What's up, guys?
243
You guys came to Austin without even contacting me?
244
100%.
245
Shut up.
246
You guys are so exciting.
247
And it actually started working.
248
Bro, we freaking did it.
249
We're viral.
250
We freaking did it.
251
Our plan became clear.
252
We're making trailers for YouTubers until we make an actual movie for Mr. Beast.
253
Crazy.
254
You guys are crazy.
255
What the was that?
256
That was so wild.
257
And all of a sudden we were sitting next to some of the biggest YouTubers ever.
258
Only one connection away from Jimmy himself.
259
So when we surprised
260
Mark Rober with his own movie, we had to shoot our shot.
261
We'll put your name in the credits of the MrBeast movie if...
262
You pull out your phone right now and call MrBeast.
263
Wow!
264
I spoke to MrBeast.
265
He agreed to talk to you guys if you hit a certain milestone of subscribers.
266
The bad news, depending on how you want to look at it, is that number is 5 million subscribers.
267
So gauntlets been thrown, gentlemen.
268
Get to work.
269
This was insane.
270
We somehow finessed our way to get our idea in front of Mr. Beaks.
271
And not only that, but we had a tangible way to actually meet with him about this movie.
272
And this was the exact point we decided to take the biggest leap so far.
273
We packed up everything, said goodbye to our family and friends.
274
We have to say bye to all these beautiful friends.
275
We love you guys.
276
And with our wives, we moved to the other side of the world.
277
This was our first home.
278
And to say goodbye, we're moving to USA.
279
Bye.
280
Love you.
281
It was definitely crazy to think how far we'd come since vlogging in Lucas' apartment common room in Australia.
282
But after a whole year of working towards our goal in America, we started realizing that we were still so far away.
283
This was going to take a lot longer than we planned.
284
It takes a lot of work to get to 1 million subscribers, and a lot of YouTubers never even make it to 5 mil.
285
But if we ever do, would Jimmy even remember what he promised?
286
Or was it just something that he said in passing?
287
We went all in, and it wasn't easy.
288
But we still had that same question that we started with.
289
Will we ever get to make our first feature film?
290
What the...
291
My heart's pounding.
292
What's wrong?
293
Something's going on with Kurt, I don't know.
294
I'm kinda scared.
295
We just got a DM.
296
Howdy.
297
Mr Beast.
298
What are you gonna say why why now is that actually mr. Bees yes
299
Hey Jimmy just say Jimbo the beast wants to chat he's ready
300
This is exciting, yeah, that's kind of the plan.
301
Oh my gosh, I just wanna hug you because we freaking did it.
302
Is he actually just cold?
303
Yeah? Can you hear me?
304
Hello?
305
Yo!
306
Well, this is funny because I'm on a plane about to take off, so you're gonna lose me in like five seconds.
307
Oh, all good.
308
It's really cool to hear from you.
309
Likewise.
310
Oh, well, I'm flying Egypt, so I guess I'll just, maybe I'll give you a call in a day or two.
311
I didn't know.
312
Oh, okay.
313
The suspense.
314
The suspense.
315
We'll make it super true.
316
We'll make it to reality.
317
Can you guess what we're filming in Egypt before I leave you?
318
You filming in Egypt?
319
Seven Wonders?
320
We got the pyramids for the week.
321
That's crazy.
322
That's wow.
323
Are you getting to the top of the pyramid?
324
Yeah.
325
No way.
326
It's epic.
327
All right, well, have a safe trip.
328
It ended.
329
What was that?
330
After literally four years of waiting for this moment, we lost him, which leaves us no choice.
331
In episode two, we're calling Jimmy back.
332
He's a busy guy.
333
I tried calling Mr. Beast back two times now.
334
He's calling?
335
Yeah.
336
Okay, we're calling.
337
I know you guys are working on a movie or something like that.

- /æ/ — più aperta della “e”: capitalize /ˈkæpətəˌlaɪz/, collab /kəˈlæb/, hijack /ˈhaɪ.d͡ʒæk/, tangible /ˈtæn.d͡ʒə.bəl/, mentality /mɛnˈtæləti/

Cos'è la tecnica dello Shadowing?
Shadowing è una tecnica di apprendimento delle lingue supportata da studi scientifici, originariamente sviluppata per la formazione dei traduttori professionisti e resa popolare dal poliglotta Dr. Alexander Arguelles. Il metodo è semplice ma potente: ascolti un audio in inglese di madrelingua e lo ripeti immediatamente ad alta voce — come un'ombra che segue il parlante con un ritardo di solo 1–2 secondi. A differenza dell'ascolto passivo o degli esercizi di grammatica, lo shadowing costringe il tuo cervello e i muscoli della bocca a elaborare e riprodurre simultaneamente i modelli di discorso reale. La ricerca dimostra che migliora significativamente la precisione della pronuncia, l'intonazione, il ritmo, il discorso connesso, la comprensione dell'ascolto e la fluidità del parlato — rendendolo uno dei metodi più efficaci per la preparazione alla prova di speaking dell'IELTS e per la comunicazione reale in inglese.
