He’s also dipped his toe into the waters of TikTok, making a few silly videos and garnering over 2 million followers. In a recent video he commented “guys I played the new FNAF and it’s pretty good,” which seemed to be an understatement when looking at his most recent viral video.

The TikTok features Jack, dressed in Five Nights at Freddy’s trousers that are pulled up to his waist, with a Rick and Morty shirt tucked into them. He sings “Five Nights at Freddy’s, that’s where I wanna be,” with no other background music, while dancing.
