YouTube’s biggest creator, MrBeast, has released what many are calling his most emotional video yet: “Lose 100 LBs, Win $250,000!” While fans expected another extreme challenge, they were met with a powerful story of transformation, loss, and legacy. The video, uploaded on June 21, 2025, has already surpassed 67 million views and is currently #7 YouTube Trending.
The challenge featured Majd, a man who committed to losing 100 pounds over 178 days while living in complete isolation inside a painted circle. With $250,000 on the line, Majd had only healthy food, workout equipment, and one key motivator: Coach Tyler Wall.
Who Was Coach Tyler Wall in MrBeast’s Weight Loss Challenge?
Coach Tyler Wall wasn’t just a trainer—he was the heart of the journey. A graduate of UCONN and native of Southington, Connecticut, Tyler Wall brought unmatched energy and encouragement to the challenge. His uplifting words and genuine connection with Majd helped carry the emotional weight of the video. As viewers saw, Tyler often reminded Majd, “You’re gonna crush this, man.”
However, the story took a heartbreaking turn. Partway through the challenge, Coach Tyler Wall passed away suddenly on February 18, 2025, at the age of 38. The news shocked the MrBeast team, who considered canceling the video altogether.
But after speaking with Tyler’s family, they chose to move forward with the release. According to the video’s description, the family felt Tyler would’ve wanted his message of positivity and resilience to reach the world.
