Channels dedicated to videogames make up a good proportion of this list, with CaptainSparklez dropping in at ninth place. The Captain's channel comprises of a mixture of videogames, animations and music videos built around games with his speciality being Minecraft footage. His popularity comes from his coverage of mods, his ingenuity when it comes to virtual construction and his oddly soothing voice. Unlike some other game-centric YouTubers, his humour doesn't come from screaming, swearing and frustration, rather, he is a genuinely funny person and comes across as possibly the most friendly person on this list.
