20-year-old Jamaican pilot wins $2.4M jet on MrBeast show

A 20-year-old Jamaican pilot, Jabari “Treezy” Brown, is celebrating a life-changing victory after winning a $2.4 million private jet on MrBeast’s latest global challenge, 100 Pilots Fight For A Private Jet. Brown outlasted 99 trained pilots from around the world in a high-pressure endurance competition filmed in Saudi Arabia — and he says his faith made the difference.

The episode, released Saturday on MrBeast’s YouTube channel, begins with the content creator purchasing an expensive jet before gathering 100 pilots and splitting them into three teams. Each round featured physically demanding, focus-breaking tasks designed to test teamwork, discipline, and mental stamina. When only one team remained, the challenge shifted into a no-alliance, straight knockout round: last person touching the jet wins.

Brown, the youngest among the finalists, entered the challenge with a single mission — to change his future. After hours of pressure and pure endurance, he became the final contestant standing.

“There’s no way it was 100 people and I was the one that won, that’s not an accident man,” he said of his victory. He credited his win to his faith, calling it the greatest advantage he had over every other competitor. “It’s divine favour, and favour isn’t fair but it’s given to those who believe.”

He added that each challenge pushed him to lean deeper on that faith, saying his success came from “God, His favour, and the faith that he had throughout the competition.”

Walking away with his prize — a real private jet — Brown says he is now focused on his long-time dream of starting his own charter flight company. “Captain Treezy,” as fans have begun calling him, has been working toward that goal since he began his aviation career.

The story has electrified Jamaican social media, with hundreds congratulating the young pilot for his determination, discipline, and the strategic thinking he displayed throughout the competition.

The episode itself is part of MrBeast’s first production filmed in Saudi Arabia and has already drawn over 60 million views. The massive challenge, featuring pilots from multiple countries, aligns with the region’s growing entertainment boom, including Riyadh Season’s new Beast Land attraction inspired by MrBeast’s universe.
