Media platforms are infamous for their takedown and bans. Many streamers and YouTubers have been the victim of this indiscriminate ban in the past. Media platforms don’t look twice, even if the person is a low-subbed YouTuber or the biggest YouTuber in the world. Furthermore, this is what has happened recently. YouTube took down MrBeast’s video “7 Days Stranded at Sea” due to copyright claims.

Jimmy “MrBeast” Donaldson has always been popular as one of the best YouTubers. Furthermore, the YouTuber recently surpassed PewDiePie in the subscriber race and has claimed the top spot. However, despite all the success he has been receiving so far, Jimmy is also getting tangled in many dramas. Moreover, it’s never-wrecking for fans to see their favorite content creator getting so much scrutiny.

Recently, Virtual Dining Concepts counter-sued Jimmy for a whopping amount of $100 million. And since then, the YouTuber has been battling lawsuits. There were many spectacular things for him, too, during the course of a few days, with making a collab video with PewDiePie and meeting him for the first time despite being friends for years. However, the bad luck is catching up to him really fast.

YouTubed banned MrBeast’s second recent video, titled “7 Days Stranded at Sea,” due to a copyright claim. Furthermore, this news was much more shocking for fans, considering this video broke the world record for the most viewed video in under 24 hours.

Fans can no longer find MrBeast’s second recent video, “7 Days Stranded At Sea,” on YouTube. It’s because YouTube took down the video due to copyright claims. The video was released on Jimmy’s official YouTube channel on August 5th and soon thrived in views. A user by the name of Tsuriel Designs observed that someone on MrBeast’s team appeared to have borrowed one of their animations without asking them beforehand in response to a post where MrBeast celebrated setting a YouTube record.

In response to the Tweet, the Twitter user wrote, “Hey! Looks like someone on the editing team took my animation for this video without compensation or permission.” The two-second animation depicts a smartphone button transforming from a moon to a sun to represent the passage of time for Mr. Beast’s stranded crew. Many viewers are discussing the propriety of claiming a whole video over a two-second animation in response to the copyright claim. And this has generated a lot of discussion online.

The main perpetrator, Tsuriel Designs, is yet to give a response on the ban. Furthermore, even MrBeast has to give his take on this. Many expect the designer to be paid wholesomely for the design, while many are questioning the authenticity of the 2-sec clip. Whatever it may be, though, fans would likely not see the video on YouTube anytime soon.
