Markiplier Becomes GoPro's Largest Shareholder with an 8.5% Stake
YouTuber Mark 'Markiplier' Fischbach has become GoPro’s largest shareholder, acquiring an 8.5 percent stake in the company according to Bloomberg. He cited that he believes GoPro is undervalued and views his investment as part of a broader mission to make filmmaking more accessible. This follows the release of Markiplier's first feature film, *Iron Lung*, earlier this year. In a recent video, Fischbach praised GoPro’s new Mission 1 ILS camera and compared it with Red Komodo-X while using an affiliate code for the product. Fellow YouTuber Marques Brownlee commented on the unusual nature of such a crossover between content creators and corporate ownership.
