Speaking of Logan, he revealed on his YouTube channel that he has been banned from visiting Egypt for an unknown reason:
“Mr Beast uploaded a new video exploring the Pyramids and I love the Pyramids so I was like ‘Jimmy can I come?’ He’s like, ‘for sure’. And then a week later he called me, ‘unfortunately the Egyptian government said that you can’t come otherwise we can’t come’.
And I was like wait what, I know I pi$$ed people off, but the Egyptian government? I’ve never even been to Egypt. ‘Why can’t I come to the Pyramids, Jimmy?’, he said, ‘I don’t know. The government specifically said you are the only person that cannot come on this trip.’”
