Who would win in a race? The fastest man in the world or the fastest robot in the world?

Go! We are testing the most advanced robots ever made against the most elite humans. Like the world's best driver against an AI robot who can push a race car past the laws of physics, or the best human athletes against robots who literally could replace them, and so much more. All to find out: Are the days of the human species numbered? The answer may surprise you. All starting with the strongest man in the world vs. this mech.

That's massive. This robot is 50 times stronger than any human could ever dream of being, leaving us and the fate of humanity, all in the willpower of this one man. He is gonna be going head to head against this giant robot mech. Oh! That is terrifying. The challenge is simple. You’ll have to flip these 3 cars and pull that bus off those other cars before this mech does. If not, humanity is off to a bad start in this video. I have to win. And us humans need you to. 3 2 1… Go! [grunting]

[grunting] Oh my gosh! You already flipped the car! But here comes the mech! The mech flipped the first car! Thor is onto the second car. Come on! [grunting] Wait, oh my gosh! Come on! Oh, no! The robot's catching up. The second car's been flipped! For humanity! Bro what are you doing? Flip the car. [grunting] Oh! Oh, he's struggling. [grunting] Oh! He's flipped all the cars. Now, the hardest part. Does he get the bus first pull? Ah! [grunting]

He’s slipping! For humanity! Oh, he's rocking it. Oh Thor, it’s catching up. The robot's about to flip its last car. Oh, he just flipped the third car! It’s a tied game! When the robot gets to those tires, it's game over. This mech’s probably gonna pull it down first try. So I wouldn't let humanity down here, Thor. We’re all countin’ on ya. The robot's not gonna struggle with this rope. It’s latching onto the tires. It's latched on. The robot’s about to win!

Oh, no. This is probably your last pull, Thor. Give it everything you got. [grunting] Come on! [groans]

[Jimmy] Oh!

You did it! For humanity! On behalf of all the humans, here is a gold medal. Thank you. [Tareq] Let’s go! Humans one, robots zero. Meaning for now, humans are not obsolete. But we still have 6 more clashes to find out if robots will rise above us in the end. So let's head to this next showdown featuring the fastest pitching robot on the planet.

You. Oh yeah. That is creepy. I get that a lot. Neo is a humanoid robot who imitates the actions of its human controller, but not too far into the near future, this android will be capable of complete self operation. And this robot is going to be going against former Giants player Eric Sim! Let's do it. You don't have a chance, my man. Imma take you down. I'll believe it when I see it.

Did he just do a mic drop on me just now? Would you believe me if I told you he can pitch a 150 miles an hour? 150?! That's fast. For context, the fastest Eric could have ever been pitched to by a human would only be the record holding 105 miles an hour. So in order to hit 150, Neo brought his very own cannon… [laughing] to launch the ball. Neo is gonna be manning this cannon, or I guess robotting this cannon. I don't know. This is throwing off everything I know as a human.

Eric, if you can hit a home run off of 1 of the 10 pitches neo fires your way, then you'll give the humans a 2-0 lead. Let’s go baby, for humans. [Jimmy] Alright, let's do this. Humanity is counting on you, Eric. I'm ready. Do it for mankind. And to all you baseball players out there, you better hope Eric wins. Because if not, your hope of ever going pro could be brutalized by this machine.

[Eric] Oh, my! Ooh! Was that the fastest pitch you've ever seen? Yes, by a long shot. What is that? Ha-ha-ha! Well, here come 9 more, so good luck! On you, Neo! [Tareq] Oh my God, here we go.

I can't hit that. [Tareq] Dude, he's like mocking you. Alright, let it rip.

Ooh! Why is it so fast? Seven more to go. [Tareq] Here it comes. Oh! That's gas. Yo, is Neo celebrating over there? Robots are gonna win. Yo, he hit a Fortnite emote on him. I don't like Neo, I hate him. You're trash. Stop doing the emote on me.

Bro, I can feel the wind off of it. It's getting nastier every time.

[Jimmy] Oh! He almost hit Neo. Eric, you hit the ball. But remember, you need a home run to win. I got this. Neo you're going down, Machine! Try and hit this, clown. Humans are not obsolete. Do it for mankind. [Jimmy] Eric, you have 4 pitches left. Do you think you got this? You gotta believe for humans. Believe!

-Oh, there it is! -There it goes! Oh no. Get out! Get out! Get out!

-Yeah! -[Jimmy] Let's go! I don't like humans. [Eric] Let's go! He did it! 150 miles an hour. Making this the first home run mankind has ever hit at a speed so high. Neo, can you crown the human with this $10,000 golden medal? No no no, you didn't win. This is the worst moment of my life. [laughing] Bro you literally made the robot rage quit but that's another point for humanity. Giving the humans a 2-0 lead. So let's see if the robots can kick their way back into this.

Because we brought out Adam, who is one of the most insanely accurate football kickers in the entire world. Going up against the most powerful football kicking robot. I was going to see who can kick further, you or the robot, but… Kick it!

Yeah. Yeah. So instead, we're gonna do an accuracy challenge. And the rules couldn't be simpler. First one to kick the ball and hit the target wins. Adam, do it for humanity. [Jimmy] Alright, let's see it! For humanity.

[Jimmy] You didn’t even make it in the field goal. Oh boy. We're not off to a good start here. That's awkward. It’s fine. We know this robot can kick far, but can it kick more accurately than a human? Oh. -[Tareq] That was so close! -[Karl] That was close. [Jimmy] Humanity lives to see another day. Any last words? None.

Is that it?

[Jimmy] Oh… Adam, have you ever thought about not missing? Everybody misses.

[Jimmy] Oh! Whoa, whoa, whoa. Whenever you're ready, Adam. This might be your last chance. -You think? -I really do think it is. [Adam] Let's actually put it between the posts, huh? Yeah.

[Jimmy] That's, uh… [Adam] Dude. Adam, you might be causing the downfall of the human race right now. It's not looking so hot for Adam, bruh. 3 2 1… Fire!

[Jimmy] Oh!

Wow. Oh, that's tough, man. Team Robots just scored a point. Any last words you want to say to that robot? No, it's not gonna say anything back. Well, this next robot can't talk either. But we did get one that can play basketball, because up next, we have 4 time NBA champion Manu Ginóbili going up against the most elite basketball robot in the world. Are you nervous? Very. Intimidating. Whoever gets 2 basketball shots first will win this challenge.

Oh yeah. And the second hoop is covered in razor sharp nails. Alright. Let's do it. Ok. For humanity. Come on, my old friend. Help me out here. Let's see it. There you go. -That's it. Let's go. -Yes. Yes! Let's go. Let's see if the robot can make the shot, too. That big hand… Boo! is so intimidating. Boo! Here we go. [Tareq] There it is. Whoa… [Majd] That is nothing but net. This thing's a monster. While Manu defends humanity against the machines,

I wanna tell you about our new Beast Lab's Hybrids. You can create literally millions of variations by mixing and matching. You should give up, man. You hear that? Alright, here we go. Got this.

Oh! No! It felt so good. Manu just missed that shot. But make sure you don't miss picking up MrBeast Lab Hybrids. Every pack has different rarities, like this hyper chrome limited edition Panther. So go and try to collect them. [Manu] If he makes this one, he deserves the win man. [grunting] Miss it. Miss it!

[Tareq] Oh my gosh. Oh. A miss! Let’s go! If you want to create your own MrBeast Lab Hybrid, go to any one of these retailers right here. Manu, for the love of God, hit this shot! You hear that? Alright. Here we go again. You got this.

Oh, that's-- That looks good. Oh! [groaning] Give me one try.

Here we go. If he makes the shot, you officially lose. -[Majd] Miss! -[Tareq] Oh, no.

The robot just won. [groaning] The robots are officially tied with humans. I'm sorry, Manu. Good job, man. Now that this series is all tied up, let's see which species will drive their way back to a lead. This next challenge is personally my favorite. I got one of the fastest drivers on the planet, and he'll be going up against a car literally driven by a robot. But the robot isn't in the driver's seat. It's back here. This is the AI brain of the car,

which in a race can react faster than any human alive, making it the fastest unmanned car on the planet. I've never seen anything like this before. Both George and the AI will be racing in the same model Mercedes. Let's do it. Here we go! The AI car is up first. 3 2 1… Go!

[Tareq] Oh, it’s zoomin’! [Nolan] I can't believe nobody's in that thing!

There you go. ‘Round the first turn-- Good. Second turn-- Good.

[Jimmy] Whoa! Oh, that precision. I was not expecting this. So far, it's been a minute and one second. Look how fast it's hittin’ these turns. [George] I reckon, is it, 140 now? Anything around 2 minutes is like a really good lap time on this track. Will it get sub-two minutes? Here it comes. Boom! The AI car has finished its lap. What is it? 2:01! Two minutes and one second is the time to beat. This is your car. The same exact model as the AI drove. It looks fast. Let's get in.

Remember, George, the fate of humanity could rest on this race. Alright, get ready for this, man. 3 2 1… Go!

Who is better? Man versus robot! Let's go! Go! Go, George Russell! [Tareq] Around the corner flawlessly! [Jimmy] Holy crap! Oh! I was driftin’ there. [Jimmy] Oh, you can hear it roaring. Oh, we're going in deep. We’re almost in gravel. At this point, I was getting pretty scared. Oh my gosh, you're going 220km an hour. Let's show the AI who's boss! Humans aren't obsolete yet! Not under my watch. George Russell, you can do it!

Oh, I hear a lot of screeching. Is that bad? That's not what we need. It is ok. You're currently 2 seconds behind where the AI car was at this point in the race. [Jimmy] This is crazy. [George] That was a bad corner. Ah, come on… Do it for humanity! You can recover. You got this. Ten seconds! Come on! [Tareq] You got this, George! [Jimmy] You’re catching up!

Oh, you did it! -You did it! -Come on! Oh my gosh. Woo! -Oh 1:57! He beat it! -He beat the robot! Congratulations. You have beaten the AI. -Thank you. -You did it for humanity. Let's see if the humans win the next one. Because if we do, then the humans will win this series. But if the robots win, then everything comes down to our final race with Noah Lyles. So… For this challenge, we have Grant Horvath. Who is basically the golden boy for YouTube golf

vs. Robo-T, the most precise golf robot in the world. You're going down, pretty-boy. I don't like that it talks. On this course are 5 targets increasing in distance. The first player to hit 3 targets wins a point for their team. You really think you can beat the most precise golfing robot in the world? I don't know. It's gonna be really tricky. There is no competition. We're gonna send Grant back to the frat house. [laughing] Oh, wow. Alright.

Wow, it’s getting personal up in here. Alright, first shot, baby. Here we go, Chandler.

[Chandler] Oh!

Oh yeah! Bro, you did it! [laughing] Let’s go! Who would’ve known? Let's go! Robot. Your turn. [Robo-T] Set it up, Majd. It's over. I build up the humans’ confidence just to tear it down. Watch this, Grant.

[Majd] Aw, that looks like butter.

[Grant] Oh, no! That right there is a point. Oh wow, dude. One to one. One point for the robot. It’s all over, pretty-boy.

What's your new strategy? Well, we're going to the 150. I'm sticking with my lucky club. This is your chance.

[Grant] My goodness. Yikes! Lock in. Alright? Let's go. Oh, no! Chandler! Chandler! [Robo-T] Ka-boom.

We're down now. Alright, now we're going pretty far to one… 175 yards. -175 yards… -The wind’s pumping. Grant, have you considered hitting the target? You have to tie it up here.

[Grant] No! Right. Well, I hope you packed your bags. This is the most nervous I've been so far.

Oh my gosh. -[Grant] No! No! -[Chandler] Please, please.

Oh! You hear that? That's it! Oh Grant. Alright. Another win for Team Robot. G rant, anything to say? This one's going to sting for a while. It's all tied up, and we are heading to our final showdown. Meaning everything all comes down to this. Will us humans prove to the world that we are not replaceable? Or will robots turn the page of history and mark the fate of our future? Only one can win the battle. The new age question: Man or machine?

Now, the moment you’ve all been waiting for! Noah Lyles, the fastest man in the world vs. not just 1, but 3 robots, each increasing in speed. They will run a simple 50 meter dash. If Noah somehow manages to win against all 3 robots, he will score the tie breaking point for humanity. But if even one beats him in a race, the robots get a point, and us humans are obsolete. Up first is the Unitree G1, a robot so athletic it can balance, flip, and even fight. Let's roll. Let's get it.

Alright, you want me to hold your medals for you? -Thank you, sir. -Yeah. Let me… Might be a little heavier than you think. Be careful. Oh! Oh my God. Are these actual gold? [laughing]

Alright, race #1. Let's see if Noah can win all 3. Ready! Set!

Go! Go, robot! Run! Go! Run! [Tareq] Dude, that's not even close. I could beat this robot, and I'm slow as heck. But these next two robots Noah’s about to race are way faster. The robot's still running! [laughing] Bro! Go! Go! -[Jimmy] Ok. -[Tareq] Let's go! Better luck next time, humanity. Ha-ha-ha-ho-oh! But you lost. Better luck next time. Oh! Oh! It’s dancing on you. No, I ain't gon’ take this!

Up next is a genuine racing competitor, the Unitree H1. It won multiple medals at the 2025 World Humanoid Robot Games, making it the fastest robot on two legs. What's it like looking over there and not seeing another sprinter? I mean, isn't that how all my races go? [laughing] Oh my gosh! Alright, race #2. It could all end here. H1, are you ready?

Noah, are you ready? Let's go! Set!

Go! Robot, go! H1! Go! Run! Oh my goodness! He's blowing the robot out of the water! Oh, it's not even close.

He already beat you. He already beat you. I'm sorry, man. Good form, though. I had a feeling you would destroy H1. Uh yeah. Which is why we brought some non-humanoid robots.

Let's go to Phase 3.

This is Black Panther. Modeled after the cheetah, it can reach speeds over 22 miles per hour. This is just the fastest robot, period What am I racing, dogs now? Are you ready to face the peak of robotic athleticism? Let's go! Humanity is resting in Noah Lyles' legs. [grunts] All the competitors and all their efforts… Yeah! All their successes…

Oh! …and disappointments come down to this final race. For humanity! Let's go!

Oh! …and disappointments come down to this final race. For humanity! Let's go!

Ready?

Set… He’s off! Oh, the robot's fast! Go, Black Panther! Go! It's right behind you! Oh, oh, it's catchin’ up! Noah might lose.

He’s off! Oh, the robot's fast! Go, Black Panther! Go! It's right behind you! Oh, oh, it's catchin’ up! Noah might lose.

Whoa! Hey, lowkey, that robot was a little scary. Humanity wins! One day, robots will overtake us. But in 2025, humans still have an edge. Humanity is saved once again. Robots are not better than us. At least not yet…
