Sam became active on the internet with his Instagram account. He started off by posting his own pictures without using any photo effects or filters. This was considered out of the ordinary by many as most of the users would prefer to add filters to their photos. Sam’s unedited selfies started gaining attention and in no time, he was a star.

He kept on posting selfies on his account and his number of followers reached 550,000. Though Sam advocated ‘natural beauty’ through his pictures, he never commented anything against those who preferred posting edited pictures. Sam created much hype for not following suit. The popularity that he achieved on Instagram made him to step into the world of YouTube. Many of his followers too, requested him to create a YouTube channel.

Soon Sam started using YouTube but he did not create a separate channel for himself. Instead, he joined the Sunset Park group that had already created hype by then. Sunset Park comprises of a group of boys who post a variety of entertaining contents on YouTube. They became famous for their cringe-worthy prank and challenge videos. Sam appeared on YouTube for the first time, along with Sunset Park. In the video, he was seen taking up ‘Eat It or Wear It’ challenge. Who here plays soccer?

Sam became famous for appearing in tough challenges. In one of his challenge videos, he was literally covered with whipped cream when he failed to guess the lyrics of a song. In another challenge, Sam was covered with tomato ketchup when he failed to answer a few questions. In the challenge, the questions were posed by the members of Sunset Park, and the one who gets the answers wrong or fails to answer needs to choose from a variety of sauce in order to get covered by the chosen sauce.

Sam has also done a video for Sunset Park in which he spoke about his journey on the internet.
