What is the most viewed TikTok?
TikTok has become a sensation, especially among Gen Z.
TikTok was one of the fastest-growing brands in 2020, following Zoom and Peacock.
In 2023, the social media platform landed on Time Magazine’s list of 100 Most Influential Companies.
With such hype, many TikTok videos have gone viral throughout the years.
In number one comes Zach King’s Harry Potter illusion video, with 2.3 billion views.
The video shows King flying a broomstick, in which he later uncovers the mirror being used to trick the audience.
“They rejected my application to Hogwarts but I still found a way to be a wizard,” captioned King.
Posted in December 2019, the 18-second video quickly gained popularity and continues to rank as the most-watched content on TikTok.

King was born and raised in Portland, Oregon, and graduated from Biola University in 2012 with a Bachelor’s in Cinema and Media Arts.
The 33-year-old illusionist and internet personality is best known for his short magic videos, which he started on YouTube and Vine.
With his debut on TikTok in 2016, King has the sixth most followed account and has amassed more than 78.9 million followers as of September 2023.
The illusionist married Rachel Holm, a case manager, in 2014.
