Like any other TikToker, Ashton Hall had no expectations for his recent video to skyrocket with millions of views and newfound fame. However, what just seemed like a regular day to the influencer, turned into something the world is currently obsessing over.
To give you a little backstory, Hall initially posted the interesting video of his morning routine to TikTok back in February. But recently, a popular X (formerly known as Twitter) account, got ahold of Hall’s 90-second clip and reshared the video, catching the attention of social media users. Now, sitting 6.3 million likes on Instagram and close to 100 million views on TikTok, Hall’s morning routine has become the latest hot topic on the internet.
In the beginning, Hall’s video seems pretty normal for high achievers who like to get a headstart on the day. At 3:50 a.m., Hall meditates, exercises, and reads before getting started with work. Despite that not being too out of the ordinary, it was what came next that had viewers perplexed. Hall repeatedly dunked his face into a bowl filled with iced Saratoga water, randomly squatted on his balcony, ate a banana and used its peel as skincare, wore jewelry to the gym, amongst other things.
Hall captioned his unique regimen as a way to introduce discipline, encouraging his followers to adapt a structured morning routine. Once the video gained attention, many people were intrigued by Hall’s extreme dedication to his lifestyle and entertained by his many actions. But, unfortunately, there were also a handful of individuals that were not sold on his game and believed the influencer was “doing random nonsense for hours,” one user wrote.
Nonetheless, even though the jokes continue to roll in, the impact of the viral video is something that’s hard to deny. His clip has surpassed 40 million views on YouTube, and Saratoga Water has seen a massive surge in Google searches, up 1,379%, thanks to Hall’s ice bath. Not to mention, McDonald’s fast food restaurant has also chimed into the conversation, adding their own twist to the joke with their infamous Sprite drink.
