Man goes viral in Malaysia for “thirst trap” Tiktok account made by colleague
Tom, a British national, had just arrived in Malaysia when Juria recognized that her new colleague was “quite a specimen”, she said in a recent Hitz interview.
Seeing “TikTok potential” in Tom, she asked if she could film candid videos of him.
Though initially unsure, Tom agreed to her request. After filming several shots of him in the office, Juria showed the video to her colleague, who was confused as to why people would want to watch the video.
“What is the point of this video,” he asked, to which Juria replied: “Just wait”.
True enough, the first video they made of Tom doing his everyday work went viral and now has 9 million views.

Yet, after seeing traction on the account, the company got on board with it.
“Now they’re fully supportive of it,” Juria added.
Now, Tom and Juria film thirst traps that have netizens swooning and comparing Tom to various celebrities and book characters, including Henry Cavill and Christian Grey.
They have even created videos to help raise funds for an animal rescue group, using the power of thirst of the many TikTok girlies following the account to help a noble cause.

She also mentioned having other love interests at the moment.
Meanwhile, Tom said that he just got out of a long-term relationship and isn’t looking to dive into another one at the moment.
