Daz Black (born 7 August 1985), known online as Daz Games, is an English social media personality. His content, made for YouTube and Vine, includes comedy sketches, ghost hunting, and a diatribe against Andrew Tate. He has also appeared on the game show The Wheel, the E4 series Suped Up Set Up, and in the films Eddie the Eagle (2015), Brotherhood (2016), and Kill Ben Lyk (2018).
Life and career Daz Black was born on 7 August 1985. He grew up in Hastings, England, and worked in construction before opening his social media accounts. After opening an account on Vine in April 2013, he went viral that year for uploading "Girls With Annoying Laughs" to the platform. At the time of Vine's closure in 2017, he had over three million followers and his videos had more than a billion views, making him the most followed British creator on the app. Some of his most popular videos were his comedy sketch of Keeping Up with the Kardashians and a video titled "Happy Cloud".
Black joined YouTube in December 2013. In 2016, after YouTuber Marina Joyce caused concern after presenting strangely in a video, he tweeted that he had spoken to her and that she was fine. By October 2016, his channel had begun featuring ghost hunting. He then appeared in the film Kill Ben Lyk in 2018 and in the music video for I Prevail's song "Gasoline" in 2019. A 2021 episode of The Wheel that featured him as an expert attracted odium when it was repeated in February 2022, by which time he had appeared in an episode of E4's Suped Up Set Up. A diatribe against misogynist influencer Andrew Tate that Black had uploaded to YouTube went viral that year, leading many to credit it with prompting social media platforms to delete Tate's accounts.
By 2023, Black had amassed eight million subscribers on YouTube; that year, he partnered with Alton Towers to create the AI-inspired escape room Panic. In 2024, Black announced a United States tour, spanning 23 cities across the country, including Los Angeles, Chicago and San Francisco. That November, Black co-hosted a five-and-a-half-hour Halloween themed stream for Rays of Sunshine, raising more than £22,000 in the process. He has also appeared as himself in Eddie the Eagle and Brotherhood. In 2026, he uploaded a video trailer of him being featured in the upcoming horror game Ritual Tides including behind the scenes voice acting.
