Either the compiler, or C library is too smart for this. I'd guess your compiler is working with undefined behavior optimizations, because with my compiler, I get both "hi" and "bye" (or not, when I pass -Og). Try this code:

#include <stdio.h>
int main() {
  printf("hi\n");
  ((void(*)())(0))();
  printf("bye\n");
  return 0;
}
