MrBeast's Calakmul Filming: Permission Granted or Controversy Brewing?

Calakmul Filming Controversy: Did MrBeast Obtain Necessary Permits? The filming of MrBeast in the Mayan archaeological site of Calakmul, Mexico, has sparked debate about whether proper permits were obtained. Claudia Sheinbaum Pardo, Head of Government of Mexico City, stated in a recent press conference that filming in such protected areas requires authorization from the National Institute of Anthropology and History (INAH). "If someone enters a place protected by the National Institute of Anthropology and History," Sheinbaum explained, "they must receive permission to film." The video raises questions about the procedures followed by MrBeast's production team and whether any violations occurred. The INAH is expected to release a statement clarifying the situation and outlining any potential sanctions. This incident highlights the importance of respecting cultural heritage sites and adhering to regulations for filming in protected areas. The outcome will set a precedent for future filming projects at Calakmul and similar sites.
