Jokes the audience kept going.
Two fan fixations show up again and again: a lock-screen photo, and a short run of videos about dangerous archive files.
The lock-screen photo
In one clip he wears a sports bra. Fans saved that frame, set it as an iPhone lock screen, and filmed themselves in Apple Stores as if it were a normal wallpaper. The joke is the contrast: a polished store, and a silly photo of a tech creator. Clips spread on TikTok, YouTube Shorts, and in fan chats. Apple has not issued a statement about it.
Other fan pranks
This is the prank the public record actually describes. Other stunts get mentioned in chats, but they are not documented clearly enough to list here.
The zip-bomb videos
In mid-2026 he posted several shorts about zip bombs, with titles along the lines of what happens if you open one, how to avoid one, and a warning not to open them on purpose. Fans called the run “zip bomb week.”
A zip bomb is a small archive that expands to a huge size when it is opened. That expansion can freeze a computer or fill its storage. His point in those clips was not to try it. This page stops there on purpose.
The same pattern elsewhere
Short-form tech creators often post every day, turn subscriber counts into races, and inherit a comment gag that strangers copy. Carter’s version is the four-a-day habit, the 2024 race with Nathan Espinoza, and lines like “Thug Shake” under his videos. The participation is part of the appeal for a young gaming and gadget audience.
