Jack Arjan Singh (born April 22, 1998), known online as FantasticttacK, is an American YouTuber, stunt producer, and endurance filmmaker. He is best known for creating large-scale social experiments and psychological challenge videos that often involve confinement, environmental manipulation, and escalating stakes. His videos typically blend reality competition, cinematic spectacle, and minimal scripting, often featuring 50 to 100 contestants in unique survival-style setups.
Singh rose to prominence in 2023 with the viral release of 10 People Buried Alive for $10,000, but achieved mainstream breakout status with the release of 100 People Locked in a Blimp Until One Quits in 2024. The video became one of the most-watched non-music YouTube videos of the year and was praised for its ambitious production design and intense psychological pacing. He has since released spiritual sequels including 100 People Trapped in an Airport Terminal and The Floor Is Actually Lava Now, further establishing his reputation as one of YouTube's most daring and theatrical creators. As of July 2025, Singh's channel has over 58 million subscribers and 14.6 billion views.
Career
Singh launched his channel FantasticttacK in 2018 while attending college in California, initially posting gaming content and reaction videos. In 2021, he began experimenting with in-person challenge formats, combining high-concept ideas with cinematic editing and tension-driven pacing.
His early videos, such as "Sleep Deprivation: Who Lasts Longest?" and "The Last Person in the Ice Bath," built a cult following. By 2022, Singh was recognized for his innovative video structures and psychological storytelling style.
In 2024, Singh’s video "100 People Locked in a Blimp Until One Quits" went viral, trending worldwide and earning coverage from major tech and entertainment outlets. It was followed by the spiritual sequel "100 People Trapped in an Airport Terminal," both videos pushing themes of isolation, paranoia, and endurance to the forefront of YouTube entertainment.
Singh is known for avoiding traditional brand deals, instead self-funding most of his videos through YouTube revenue and limited-edition merchandise drops. He often livestreams cryptic teasers and promotes his projects through in-universe countdowns and puzzles.
Style and themes
Singh's videos combine elements of:
- **Social experiment:** placing contestants in controlled environments with minimal information.
- **Reality competition:** challenges, eliminations, and unknown rewards.
- **Psychological gamesmanship:** deception, sabotage, and paranoia as core mechanics.
- **High production values:** drone footage, custom-built sets, and narrative editing.
Unlike many YouTubers, Singh rarely appears on camera for long stretches, instead functioning as an omniscient narrator and game master. His fans compare his style to a mix of *Survivor*, *Black Mirror*, and escape rooms.

- 100 People Locked in a Blimp Until One Quits (2024)

Reception
Singh has received praise for pushing the creative limits of YouTube video format. TechRadar described him as “YouTube’s answer to a psychological showrunner,” while others have criticized some videos for potential manipulation and contestant stress.
In response, Singh has published safety protocol documents and featured behind-the-scenes footage in response to controversy. He has appeared on podcasts including *H3 Podcast*, *Trash Taste*, and *The Yard*.
Personal life
Singh keeps most of his personal life private. He resides in Los Angeles, California, and maintains a small creative team. He has expressed interest in directing long-form series in the future but has stated that "YouTube is the playground that keeps giving."
