Markiplier, the online name of Mark Fischbach, built a huge audience on YouTube through energetic Let's Play videos, especially horror games and Five Nights at Freddy's. Short clips of his voice and reactions were clipped by fans and shared across meme pages, Discord servers and soundboards, where a name drop alone became shorthand for his style. Because his delivery is so recognisable, even a two second excerpt works out of context. That familiarity keeps the clip in circulation for reaction edits and gaming humour long after the original video moment.
