Mark Edward Fischbach (born June 28, 1989), better known by his online pseudonym Markiplier, is an American YouTube personality. Originally from Honolulu, Hawaii, he began his career in Cincinnati, Ohio, and is currently based in Los Angeles, California.

As of February 2017, his channel has over 6 billion total video views and 16 million subscribers, making it the 21st most subscribed channel on YouTube. Fischbach specializes in Let's Play videos, commonly of survival horror and action video games.

Fischbach was born at the Tripler Army Medical Center in Honolulu, Hawaii. His father served in the military, where he met Fischbach's mother, who is of Korean descent. After his birth, his family moved to Cincinnati, Ohio. Originally, Fischbach studied to become a biomedical engineer at the University of Cincinnati, but dropped out of college to pursue his YouTube career. He has one older brother, Jason Thomas Fischbach, who is an artist and author of the webcomic Twokinds.

Markiplier is known for his over-reactive video game commentary, involving yelling, screaming, cursing, and even crying during his Let's Play videos. He does not censor the profanity in his videos, although he often subtitles his curses as "duck" (sometimes "luck") for "fuck" and "itch" for "bitch". He is known for branding his channel with a pink mustache (a reference to his alter ego, Wilford Warfstache) and has since dyed his hair pink, blue, and red. He often makes vlogs to talk one-on-one with the community about various topics, many inspirational, but usually regarding himself and his channell. He regularly attends conventions including PAX, VidCon, and ComicCon, where he engages in signings, meet and greets, and panels. He has also been involved in Make-A-Wish Foundation to meet fans.
