Personal Life

Daniel Markham launched his channel 'What's Inside?' in May 2008. The channel was inspired by his son’s 2nd grade project; the little boy wanted to see ‘what was inside’ different sports balls and report on that. After experimenting on various balls, Markham moved to other things and made videos like 'What's inside a Punching Bag', 'What's inside a TV' and 'What's inside an Electric Guitar' among others. Soon, his channel started gaining popularity and the YouTuber’s stardom reached new heights when he made the video 'What's inside the YouTube Silver Play Button'. Published on November 14, 2015, this video features Markham cutting the YouTube silver play button award in half. The video went viral and garnered millions of views within a couple of months. Today, it has more than 16 million views and is one of the most-watched videos of the YouTuber’s channel.
