YouTuber MrBeast just gave the gift of sight — and a Tesla — to a man that couldn't see clearly for his entire life.
In his latest YouTube video, MrBeast, whose real name is Jimmy Donaldson, paid for 1,000 blind and near-blind people all over the world to receive surgery. On top of the cataract surgery that the video describes, some patients received gifts, like $10,000 in cash or $50,000 for a college fund.
