Ahead of the giveaway, Donaldson filmed a promotional video in Sydney, which was posted to social media on Sunday.

“I just launched Feastables in Australia, as you can tell by the Sydney Opera House,” MrBeast told fans.

“To celebrate, we’re going to be giving random people that buy Feastables the chance to win a Lamborghini and nine other cars.

“Good luck Australia, I’ll see you in a couple of days.”

How many followers does MrBeast have?
