Nate Dern - "Huh? Guy" is the nickname given to Nate Dern, a commercial actor in an AT&T Wireless commercial in which his only line is a surprised "Huh?" in replying to the character of his boss. Along with the video, the actor rose to the status of an overnight celebrity after he posted a link to the video on Reddit in November of 2011. The thread quickly reached the front page of Reddit and accumulated over 31,000 upvotes and 2,800 comments in the first 24 hours. The commercial video gained more than 500,000 views in the first 72 hours of upload on YouTube.
