Fans are stunned to see MrBeast's new physique.

The renowned YouTuber took to social media this week to share a 3-year transformation update with his fans, and in this year's image, he can be seen visibly shredded.

Scores online felt like his transformation was not good enough for the time span, though droves also defended him, noting that he's likely just trying to stay in shape and not looking to get bulky. Here's what one fan penned, for instance:

"He looks happier"

Here's how the rest of X is reacting:

"Took him 3 years to lose 20 pounds and gain 5 lbs of muscle?" someone probed, sarcastically.
"Only people who’ve never worked out will call this mid," another defended.
"With all that money it's not impressive," one more chimed in.
"Bro went from “YouTuber mode” to “Final Boss” real quick," a fourth user penned.

The comments didn't end there:

"3 years of training till minor discomfort," one user quipped.
"MrBeast’s transformation is insane, dude went from YouTube king to gym beast. Three years of real grind, no shortcuts. Respect," another chimed in.
"First time Ive seen what looks to be a genuine smile," someone else opined.
"That’s why he is Beast!" yet another echoed.

The prevailing sentiment online is ostensibly that of pride and happiness for the YouTuber, with many cheering him on.


MrBeast gets slammed online: Here's why

MrBeast made headlines just last week when he issued an apology after his MrBeast Experience did not go as expected.

The influencer, legally known as Jimmy Donaldson, said the event "definitely isn't the experience we hoped they'd deliver" as he vowed to invite all those affected to his studio.

The event was held at Resorts World Las Vegas and was advertised as an "immersive" and "unforgettable" experience. It boasted exclusive games, a menu with a theme, and mystery bags that reportedly contained limited edition merch, including one that had a $10,000 gift voucher.

However, droves who attended the event, held across three days, returned demanding a refund, as they were left underwhelmed. Per BBC, numerous fans bombarded the resort's CEO, Alex Dixon, on Tuesday for the $1,000 they spent to attend it.

"It should have been like mini-games, meet and greets, photo ops, special drinks, and things," Theresa Metta, an attendee, told 8NewsNow, an affiliate of the BBC's US partner CBS News. "Unfortunately, we didn't get any of that."

The guests were reportedly forced to wait in the hotel room for days as they waited for their welcome goodies to arrive, to no avail.

"I was told to wait in my room for two days for a package to come, so I legit spent two days in my room for a package to come, and it was a box of chocolates," Ms Metta said.

At the time of writing, it remains to be seen if fans are issued a refund for the event.
