À propos de cet audio
Mark Rober, the ever-evolving science entertainer, has just grabbed headlines for signing a major multi-project deal with Netflix. According to Variety and Netflix’s own announcements, Mark’s wildly popular YouTube experiments—from elephant toothpaste explosions to squirrel mazes—will get a dedicated showcase special streaming late 2025, and the news has platforms buzzing. Even bigger, he’ll headline a brand-new kids and family competition series premiering in 2026, produced by his own CrunchLabs alongside the star-studded team at Jimmy Kimmel’s Kimmelot. Rober calls it his most epic venture yet, promising to merge learning and pure fun in STEM-focused challenges. Netflix’s leadership, eager to capture the YouTube generation as they did with Ms. Rachel, is counting on his infectious, family-friendly approach to engage millions.
Social media went into overdrive after the announcement dropped. On X and Instagram, congratulatory posts multiplied and Rober himself teased viewers with behind-the-scenes glimpses. His audience now tops 76 million across platforms, making him one of the world’s biggest digital educators. Jimmy Kimmel, a frequent collaborator, praised Mark’s unique knack for “hiding the vegetables in the dessert”—a metaphor for sneaking lessons into entertainment. This Netflix move feels especially monumental as it aligns Rober’s DIY engineering ethos with big-budget mainstream TV, cementing his transition from viral creator to bona fide entertainment mogul.
But Mark’s public impact this week wasn’t confined to media deals. On August 1, he and MrBeast launched #TeamWater, a charitable campaign aiming to raise $40 million by August 31 to fund clean water projects worldwide. Backed by donations from TikTok and global NGOs like WaterAid, the campaign racked up over $12 million on a single livestream featuring influencers such as Adin Ross and xQc. Guinness World Records representatives were reportedly monitoring the event, speculating on another possible milestone, though confirmation is pending. Instagram posts from contributors and fans further amplified #TeamWater’s reach, with Rober frequently sharing updates and direct calls to action.
These latest moves may well define Mark Rober for years to come. The Netflix partnership sets a new bar for creator-driven science programming, promising broader impact and executive producer control alongside industry heavyweights. Meanwhile, Rober’s leadership in #TeamWater shows his platform’s power to catalyze global change, echoing past hits like #TeamTrees and #TeamSeas. If early reactions are anything to go by, both ventures are poised to become career milestones and reshape how the world experiences science—and philanthropy—through entertainment.
