The internet personality’s reign on the short video platform, Vine continued till the end of 2016, until it seized action. On the other hand, in the year 2018, Musically merged with TikTok giving the platform a broader base of action.

Bryce Hall made the timely decision to move to Los Angeles in 2018, and in 2020, he moved into the Sway House with a few other social media stars. This opened his doors to massive social media fame, especially on TikTok, and today he has almost 24 million followers on the platform. 

Other than Vine and Musically, Bryce Hall cleverly started a YouTube channel at the beginning of 2015. His dedicated upload schedule and exciting vlog, pranks, and challenges did wonders and have garnered him almost 4 million subscribers as of February 2024. Additionally, Bryce had a sudden spike in interest to dedicate some of his time to boxing during the 2021 Battle of the Platforms exhibition boxing event.

The entire incident started out when Nico “Sneako” Kenn De Ballinthazy and Sean Strickland agreed to face in a boxing spar at the UFC Performance Institute. During the spar, the UFC star hit Sneako harder than people had expected. Thereafter, when Bryce Hall and the Rumble streamer met during the Power Slap event, the TikTok star openly challenged Sean for a professional spar.

According to Bryce, the fight between Sean and him would end differently. However, Sean refused to back down from a challenge and soon took Bryce up on his offer. He uploaded a screenshot of Bryce’s DMs challenging him to a fight and commented, “You all wanna see a dead body??? God this is the only thing I have ever wanted… Please Please I never ask you for anything… Please!!!” Bryce Hall was confident and immediate in response as he wrote, “U know I’m down Seanny boy.”
