Netflix released FYRE: The Greatest Party That Never Happened earlier this month, spawning a couple of unexpected stars in the process — like swindled caterer Maryann Rolle and event planner Andy King. The latter taught viewers a lesson about going above and beyond (and then some) for your job, becoming a meme in the process.
 
For those who haven't seen the documentary, King reveals the story of how he was asked to give a customs official a blowjob in exchange for allowing the transport drinking water for the festival, and as he puts it, "I got to his office fully prepared to suck his dick."
 
King didn't end up going through with it, but the scene has nevertheless become a motivational meme of sorts.
 
Now, in a new interview clip for Netflix, King reacted to the viral sensation he's caused.
 
In the video, King said he's "blown away" by the response to the documentary — even though he didn't know what a meme was or what it meant to be "trending" until last week.
 
King also said that he hopes the platform that he's been given by the hit documentary will allow him to do something positive for the Bahamian workers affected by the disastrous festival.
 
"One of our biggest goals, obviously, is paying back all the people in the Bahamas," he said. "If I could drive positive influences and a lot of positive energy towards social and environmental impact, then I think I can utilize this moment to do a lot of good."
 
Watch the interview clip below. Beyond that, relive some of the best Andy King memes on the internet.
