Mark made his presence felt to viewers in Vine since the moment he uploaded his first video titled “Saying 'Merry Christmas' to someone who doesn't celebrate Christmas". The video featured Mark along with friends Logan Paul and Josh Peck. The video went viral overnight with it being shared over and over again within the social media communities.
