MrBeast claims he was invited to join the Titan voyage. Why some fans aren’t buying it

YouTube star MrBeast says he found it “kind of scary” that he could have been aboard the Titan submersible, which imploded last week as authorities searched for it.

The influencer, known for his excessively expensive stunt videos and viral challenges, tweeted Sunday morning that he was “invited earlier this month to ride the titanic submarine.”

“I said no,” he wrote. He also shared a screenshot of a text message of the alleged invitation. The text read, “Also, I’m going to the Titanic in a submarine late this month. The team would be stoked to have you along.”
