Prime Hydration founders Olajide "KSI" and Logan Paul made an appearance in MrBeast's latest YouTube video, titled, Men Vs Women Survive The Wilderness For $500,000. As the name suggests, the video involved five men and five women trying to survive the intimidating forested area.
In the video, Logan Paul and KSI could be seen sitting behind a vehicle being driven by Jimmy "MrBeast" as they traversed into the forest area to meet with the participants who had managed to stay thirty days into the challenge. Finding the area visually appealing, Logan Paul said:
"Dude, this is gorgeous! if you're going to survive in the wilderness, this is like the environment to do it."
While responding to Paul's statement, KSI encountered an insect, which led to the Sidemen member screaming out in fear:
"Bro, how do you know where anything is? Oh! Oh! (Screams) Oh, no, I just saw a little fly."

The challenge in MrBeast's YouTube video involved the participants rationing their limited food supplies over a period of weeks. Further, throughout the challenge, members of both groups could leave and still be eligible for their share of the prize money. The catch was that only the team with the last player remaining would be deemed the winner, thus allowing all of its members to get the prize money.
While staying would allow for the teammates to cooperate and survive, a member leaving would allow remaining members to manage their limited supplies more effectively as the food share of the exiting member will be inherited by the participants still partaking.
Logan Paul and KSI arrived within the area on Day 32 of the challenge, with many contestants already having left and only three total participants remaining. Out of those three, two were men and one was a woman. However, on that very day, one of the two men, Patrick, decided to leave so that more food would be available for the remaining man, named TJ.
The trio then made their way to the male participants to discuss Patrick's decision to leave and eventually visited the participants' food pantry. As the video progressed, TJ was only able to make the rations last until Day 60. As Day 60 arrived and supplies ran out, he had to give up the challenge and thus, the women's team won $500,000. Despite this, the men were given $10,000 each for their participation in the challenge.
After MrBeast was hit with multiple allegations of faking his videos, mistreating participants, and covering up purported sexual assaults within the past months, MrBeast's YouTube channel seems to have suffered in performance, with a 20% drop in his viewership over August 2024.
