Bryce Sparks, known online as Whiskey Biz and a familiar face in the mud-racing community, told followers on Instagram that doctors found a tumor where his skull meets his neck and that he will have surgery to remove it.
He said the growth is “currently not cancerous” but requires removal, and that he will go into surgery the next day.
Sparks framed the update plainly. He told fans he was sharing the news because they helped give him the life he has and because they would likely notice changes during recovery.
“I have a tumor in my head,” he said. “It is currently not cancerous. I will be going in for surgery tomorrow.” He asked for privacy around the medical details but promised to post updates on an instagram post on Feb. 18, 2026.
The creator and racer has built a large following with short, personality-driven videos and off-road coverage.
His social profiles list him as a full-time content creator, fabricator, husband, and father, and his role on the Discovery series Mud Madness brought him wider exposure among off-road fans.
In the clip, Sparks warned viewers that recovery might be uneven. He said drains and temporary weakness in facial movement were possible outcomes and that it could take time for features to “start firing properly again.”
He balanced realism with optimism, saying “chances are good that everything’s gonna go great,” while also asking fans to prepare for intermittent updates.
Sparks rose through the off-road scene as a fabricator and driver, and he frequently posts workshop and race content.
His online work includes behind-the-scenes videos, racing highlights, and persona-led clips that mix humor and technical detail.
He has a sizable following across platforms and appears regularly at regional events and competitions.
Fans and fellow creators have already begun sending messages of support in comments and replies.
Sparks asked only that followers allow him and his family to focus on the medical process and promised to return to creating as soon as he is able. He also committed to sharing updates “as quickly and efficiently as we can.”
There is no public timeline for Sparks’s surgery or recovery beyond his Instagram announcement, but he told he will be getting it removed today.
Fans who watch his channels should look for official updates there, and those offering support are encouraged to be respectful of his privacy and family while he recovers.
