GREENVILLE, N.C. – A customer only ordered water while at a North Carolina restaurant — but he left a whopping $10,000 tip for his waitress!

Alaina Custer says she was in shock when she discovered a large stack of bills left on the table at Sup Dogs restaurant in Greenville.

The substantial tip was left with a note that said, “Thanks for the delicious water.”

Two men at a nearby table recorded her reaction on video, because it turns out the customer who left the money is a famous YouTube personality known as “Mr. Beast.”

“Good people are still doing good things these days so I thought it was really, really cool,” said restaurant owner Bret Oliverio. “I’ve seen some really big tips but not $10,000 so this was totally out of the blue, once in a lifetime. This will never happen again in my lifetime.”

While Custer did keep a good chunk of the cash, the rest of the money was split among the restaurant’s staff.
