The video resurfaced on YouTube in May 2020. At the same time, a website named joelmichaelsinger.com appeared dedicated to bringing awareness to the video. The website was also the first to identify Joel Singer Coastal Wealth Financial Planners employee. Heavy.com has reached out to Coastal Wealth to confirm his employment, but Joel did not have a profile on its website.

Furthermore, Steven Heflin told Heavy.com that the people at Yolo said he was from a wealthy family and 'would come after me.' Reddit removed the original post about the video in September 2019. It was then uploaded to Reddit’s popular Bully Backfire thread. The disclaimer at the top reads:

‘Content removed in response to a copyright claim by a third party.’

Steven identifies himself on Reddit as Steve3000, and in the thread, he was asked if he had been excessive. He responded that excessive is subjective, ‘I certainly did not have time to consider how not to hurt him when he swung at me after he just assaulted two other people." He further stated that the police took fifteen minutes to arrive and that he had his arm in the headlock the whole time to protect the rest of the people.
