Marcus creates tag videos, music mixes, gaming content and vlogs on his channel, though you might also recognize him from his collabrations with YouTubers such as Zoella, Alfie Deyes, Tanya Burr and Jim Chapham.
Marcus is an ambassador for Anti-Bullying and was in Ireland to launch and raise awareness for Facebook's Stay Safe campaign.
You may have also spotted him on Ireland AM.

Nadine Coyle and Jedward also attended to show their support for the campaign, but don’t worry Marcus vlogged the whole day for everyone to see - he even came across some green post boxes, which he found hilarious.
Take a look here, you might be considered a part of the 'cool' gang if you do.
