As Duncan focused on skateboarding and dealing with injuries such as the usual ankle injuries for skateboarders, a few people took notice of him. Eventually, he took an opportunity to be trained by actor and former professional skateboarder Jason Lee, who is known for his work in the series “My Name Is Earl”. He worked well with Lee who took notice of his ability, as well as his humor and ability to improvise comedy, and dedication towards making YouTube videos. Lee then encouraged him that he should try and pursue acting as it looked to be a field that he could flourish in.
Following the advice to heart, he then sought out the help of fellow YouTuber Christopher Chan, and the two began creating videos of comedy sketches and other short videos that displayed their acting. His followership continued to grow over the years, and he expressed a desire to one day pursue professional acting work.

The video was a hit and it became one of his highest viewed videos, earning around 15 million views in a short time. This motivated him to create more pranks, and as time passed, he began integrating his comedy and pranks naturally into his videos. He began doing more vlog-type videos showcasing some of the crazy things he does.
He often interacts with strangers without hesitation, and isn’t afraid to do unusual things for content and comedy. As his views grew consistently, his income started to grow to, and this revenue eventually afforded him a more luxurious lifestyle.
