Oh. [upbeat music]
Hi, my name is Markiplier.
And this is the data of me.
[upbeat music]
This is what happens when you Google Markiplier.
Okay, 49 million--
I don't see 49 million results.
Google always says that but I don't think that's true.
At all.
I Google myself everyday.
One section that comes up is
People also ask
Can you answer these questions.
Is Markiplier half Korean? Yes, on my moms side.
What happened to Teamiplier?
I dunno. We've moved on to other things.
Does Markiplier have a child? God no!
You think I could be responsible for a baby?
No way.
How old is Markiplier's dog Chica?
She is four and half years old.
Such a young lady.
What is Markiplier famous for?
[laughing] Nothing. Absolutely squat.
[beeping] diddly.
Can I curse on this?
I'm [beep] [beep] diddly. I don't know.
According to Google,
people also search for these five other people.
Can you guess who they are?
Probably JackSepticEye, PewDiePie,
The Dimond Minecart or DanTDM.
Ethan.
Jacksepticeye, got it. Nailed it.
PewDiePie, nailed it. I'm killin it.
Marzia.
Why Marzia?
Oh, there's DanTDM.
And VanossGaming?
I guess that makes sense.
I haven't talked to the guy in a while.
They also searched for these other people.
[laughing] Oh God.
Okay, this just makes sense.
These are just other YouTubers.
This is a Google Trends graph
of your name searched over time.
Oh God. [laughing]
It's spelling out the doom of my channel.
[laughing]
Well I can see the peak here, early 2015.
Is that when Five Nights at Freddy's first came out?
2015? [buzzing]
Oh! Emergency surgery.
Long story short,
my addrenal gland. Big tumor.
Had to get it out.
I had a complication from that.
Scar tissue cinched off part of my intestine.
I had to get people in there and cut it all out.
I'm fine.
It looked real sad and real scary.
Because I had a tube down my nose
and down my throat into my stomach.
I was getting my stomach pumped,
like I looked in a bad way.
So I'm assuming people thought I was dying.
I was fine.
Let's see. B, uh.
Oh no.
That one.
That was Daniel Kyre.
He was a good friend of mine, part of Cyndago.
We worked together.
Yeah, that was a real dark time.
All right, number C.
Diamond play button.
Wow, I can't believe that was a monumental enough event
for that to actually be a thing.
I guess I'm flattered. It's broken.
Actually,
I have no idea where my diamond play button right now.
I uh, that's not good.
This is your name searched over just the last year.
[Markiplier ooing]
[grunting] I don't know. What is it?
Is it good? Is it bad?
Hit 20 million while raising.
Oh, that was the nude calender.
We raised half a million for the nude calendar.
I had to sign 30 something thousand calendars.
Because I promised I'd sign every one of 'em.
Eight days of nothing but signing.
I would just go to the warehouse,
where we were shipping them out from.
And I would just sign.
Put on headphoness, sign.
Doing nothing but that.
Ugh.
Six, uh?
In 2018.
Is that when I went on tour?
[buzzing]
Oh! I announced a break from YouTube?
What?
Then? Wait a minute.
Huh?
Oh right.
My niece, Miranda, she had a car accident.
And she passed away.
I'm actually kind of shocked that none of these
are about Five Nights at Freddy's.
It's good in a way.
It's more about more as a person and my story.
Google Trends also shows related queries.
Here are the top three.
Cloak Markiplier.
Cloak is my clothing brand.
Very good stuff.
Big Brain Time Markiplier.
Okay, this was another Meme.
My editor just made an edit of me
with a big old head. And I said,
Oh yeah, this is big brain time.
It was something so stupid and so fast
but then that, I don't know, people blew it up.
I still don't understand the ememe but whatever.
Big chungus?
That has nothing to do with me!
Big chungus is like this edit,
there's like a Bugs Bunny thing
where he was making fun of Elmer Fudd
or I forget who it was.
But it's an old, old screen shot from Bugs Bunny
and then people just copied that image
and put the text 'Big Chungus' over it.
And hey, you got yourself a meme.
I don't know, but it has nothing to do with me.
We went to Getty,
and we sorted by oldest images from October 2016 comes up.
Yeah, this was a Streamy Awards.
I'm not really into award shows or anything like that
but this was right around the corner from me so I was like,
yeah, I'll show up or whatever.
Pointless, I didn't win. Whatever.
These are your most viewed videos on YouTube.
Yeah, I know what they are.
Five Nights at Freddy's,
Five Nights at Freddy's animated, Meow.
Something like that, I don't know.
Five Nights at Freddy's.
Five Nights at Freddy's animated.
Meow. [laughing]
I nailed it!
Yes.
We collected all the comments from those videos
and made a word cloud.
World.
Charity. What?
Inspire, happy and
bit.
It's just, that's really cool.
Ankle?
Oh,
it's because of this.
Ankle.
Yeah, I don't know why that would be like a popular word.
But yeah, I can do that.
I don't know, it's stupid.
But people like it.
Can you guess how many uploads, subscribers
and video views you've generated?
Uh, uploads like somewhere 4500, something like that.
4527! I was pretty close.
Subscribers, it's like 24,600,000 as of this video.
24.5, it's actually 24.6.
But I know that YouTube abbreviated things
so it's hard to get a real number.
Video views, we just crossed 12 billion recently.
A Heist with Markiplier got me over there!
Like across all the videos,
like it's got, right now,
over 10 million on the first video.
If you add up all of them, it's like
over 100 million views. [laughing]
Yeah so, I am over 12 billion now.
While playing a total of 1,476 games, you counted?
Get a life. That's weird.
Over this time period, you've developed
20 fan-loved personas. How many can you name?
Wilford Warfstache, Darkiplier,
[laughing] Ed Edgar,
Googleplier,
Bim Trimmer.
I got some new ones in heist,
I don't know if you're counting those.
But I'm assuming you're not.
Santa-plier, Bing, [grunting] I give up.
How many.
Okay, Wilford Warfstache, Darkiplier.
Santa Claus, Bim Trimmer, Ed Edgar,
Silver Shepherd, of course.
A lot of these are actually characters that I
collaborated with Cyndigo on.
And a lot of them are like their characters
more than my characters.
Dr. Iplier, Googlelier.
Copyright.
Like, lawsuit waiting to happen.
Bing also, King of the Squirrels.
Forgot about that.
King of FNAF. That's not really a persona.
That's just who I am.
Mark-bot. [laughing] Mark-bot?
What was that?
The Ham-Fisted Avenger. That's not a real personality.
What is that?
Shane Walsh. Who's Shane Walsh?
What is that?
Shane?
I've never heard of that.
That's not a thing.
That's not a thing.
Markimoo. That's just a nickname.
You're dipping into the bottom of the barrel here.
Hershel Greene. Okay, yeah Hershel.
Sally Mcsaggytits. That was just my user name.
Bumbum. That's just my user name.
NotMarkiplier69, [grunting] This list is crap.
MarkiplierFan69. Yeah, this is all crap.
This is a garbage list.
Written by hacks.
There are 1,163 unique hashtags
on Instagram associated with Markiplier.
A few of them caught our attention.
That is so tiny.
Markiplier saved me.
Markiplier pole dancing.
That's a good one.
I did pole dancing videos.
Yeah, you didn't see those
in all your digging through my channel?
It was some of the most popular ones.
People love those. I should do more.
Markiplier for president.
Not old enough.
We found your account on Tiltify
and the top three amounts for charity raised.
Can you tell us why you picked these charities?
Markiplier's Youth Homeless. That was my 24 hour livestream.
To raise half a million. It was some pie in the sky goal.
I can't believe we did it.
I was actually going to go 48 hours.
We got it in 24.
Which is nuts.
Save the Children.
That was something I did with the boys, Tyler and Ethan.
And also Amy and Kathryn behind us,
helping out with that. And Evan I think was helping out.
I mean, it just seemed like a great cause.
Markiplier's March Charity Livestream, Charity Water.
I want to do things were like,
tangibly going to help someone.
Not that like going towards research
and stuff like that isn't creating tangible help,
but this is helping people directly.
This is helping kids, directly.
This is helping youth homelessness, directly.
I like those because you can really feel
the benefit that comes out of it.
And this isn't all the streams I've ever done.
This is just what I've done with Tiltify.
But even so, it's so cool to see
that there's a history to it.
That you can see what was done with it.
You can see where this came from too.
I like this.
The End.
What do I think?
I've left my mark on the internet.
That if I were to die tomorrow,
I guess I could be pretty happy with what I've done.
I don't know.
I've just always had the philosophy that I wanted to leave
the world a better place than I found it.
I don't know if I've done that yet.
But I'll keep working towards it.
