A bit of YouTube tomfoolery ended tragically when a massive cargo ship carrying 2000 stacked containers, 2000 contestants, and $200 million in cash smashed into a Baltimore bridge pylon, bringing down the span.

“Man, I screwed up this time,” said popular online personality MrBeast. “The whole thing was going great until we realized that no one was going to escape their container, and the ship was totally out of control.”

MrBeast, known for his YouTube horseplay and fast-paced video stunts, said he was cooperating with the Port of Baltimore police and the FBI. “I am truly sorry and totally willing to pay for the removal and rebuild of the bridge if I can just videotape it all for an upcoming challenge called, ‘The First YouTuber To Scuba Dive Through Eight Million Tons of Mangled Steel To Retrieve A MrBeast Souvenir Basketball From The Bottom Of The Patapsco River!’”

Port of Baltimore officials are said to be considering MrBeast’s offer.
