About Zach King
Zach King (handle @zachking) is a Portland-born filmmaker and digital illusionist who built his reputation editing impossible-looking "magic vines" before migrating that format to TikTok, where he now commands one of the platform's largest individual followings. A Biola University film graduate, he refined a signature style that blends practical stagecraft with post-production sleight-of-hand, keeping videos short enough to loop compulsively. His Harry Potter illusion video passed two billion views and held the record as TikTok's most-watched clip for an extended period. With YouTube also crossing 27 million subscribers, his cross-platform footprint positions him as one of the few Mega-tier creators sustaining genuinely above-baseline engagement at this scale.

Frequently Asked Questions

How does Zach King create his illusion videos?
King combines careful in-camera staging, practical props, and post-production editing to produce seamless visual illusions — often in a single short clip. He studied film at Biola University, and his background in cinematography underpins the technical precision that separates his work from simpler filter-based effects.

Where did Zach King grow up and go to school?
King grew up in Portland, Oregon, and later attended Biola University in La Mirada, California, where he studied film. His formal filmmaking education is frequently cited as the foundation for the technical quality of his illusion videos.
How did Zach King first get famous?
He rose to widespread attention on Vine, where his short looping "magic vines" earned millions of followers before the platform shut down in 2016. He successfully transitioned that audience to YouTube and later TikTok, where he ultimately reached far larger scale.
Is Zach King married and does he have children?
Yes — King married Rachel Holm in 2014, and the couple have children together. His family occasionally appears in his content, though his primary format focuses on solo illusion and comedy rather than family vlogging.
What is Zach King's total follower count across platforms?
As of mid-2026, King's combined following across TikTok, YouTube, and Instagram exceeds 140 million. TikTok is his largest single platform at over 84 million followers, with Instagram and YouTube each adding tens of millions more.
Has Zach King appeared in any films or TV projects?
King has made cameo appearances and produced short-form branded content that mimics cinematic production values, but he is primarily a digital creator rather than a traditional film or TV actor. His work has been recognized with Streamy Awards nominations in the short-form and editing categories.
How does Zach King's engagement rate compare to other creators his size?
King's headline engagement rate of 5.7% sits well above the category median for magic and comedy creators at the Mega tier, where engagement typically compresses significantly as follower counts climb into the tens of millions. Sustaining that rate at 140-million-plus combined followers is a notable outlier within his peer group.
