All his videos are on TikTok, which I checked out for the first time tonight. Some are funny, and others comment on his life as a gay sailor. He made them all himself in his free time. They're not official Navy recruitment ads.

One of the videos promotes his appearance on The Weakest Link last month. He and his brother were contestants on a special all-twins episode.

Spoiler

Josh and Jacob lost in the final round. The strongest link, Jessica and Nina, won $53K. The questions weren't as hard as in Slamboree.
