Diamondbolt

Adam (born: ), better known online as Diamondbolt, is an Australian YouTuber who mostly revolves around making content about TV and video games. Before this he also made Ruined Forevers, Q&As, and did mostly Transformers videos.
==About==
Diamondbolt has been a fan of Transformers ever since his parents bought him two Transformers toys (Optimus Vs. Megatron - The Ultimate Battle double pack specifically) and a DVD summarising the Unicron trilogy. He has a notably large collection of Transformer toys. Despite this (as of 2015), he has a larger Bionicle and Hero Factory collection. The aforementioned franchises and Pokémon are his main interests along with some other animes such as Evangelion and Gundam.
==Channel History==
The Diamondbolt Channel was created on the 29th of September 2014 and his first video was a test video uploaded the same day titled 'Legendary Pokémon List'. His first Transformers related video was uploaded 8th of November 2014 and was titled 'Transformers: Different Continuity Appearances Part 1'. Since, he has since uploaded a variety of different videos. The different types are as shown below. He's also collaborated with some of his friends in the past. 
In 2017 Diamondbolt made a goal to include more non Transformers related videos in order to broaden his horizons. On April 29th 2017, Diamondbolt uploaded his first video featuring his face in his 6th Q&A video. After that there was a gradual shift away from Transformers content until May 8, 2018 when he announced big changes to the channel. He is now uploading content about TV and videos games, reaching out to every corner of pop-culture.
==Personality==
Adam is witty and comedic, which normally brings a smile or two to his audience. Even when he is upset about something, he deals with it in a light hearted manner. There have been exceptions of this, however, mostly whenever he reviews Asylum movies or when he was openly mad about Sonic's original design in the film with the same name and contemplated "how long it would take to drown it".
==Button Smashers==
In late 2018, Adam announced he would be making a gaming channel with his friend George, known on Twitch as DaggaDK. They mostly post themselves playing through various video games, but they occasionally post a video on a different topic, but it doesn't happen often.

*He used to be named Diamond Bolt but decided to change it to one word as Diamondbolt.
*His ultimate goal in life isn't a subscriber goal, but instead to become famous enough to tweet incredibly short and random stuff, and still get thousands of likes for it.
*One of his biggest goals on YouTube was to hit 100,000 subscribers, which he now has.
*As an April Fools joke, Adam and toy reviewer JobbytheHong collaborated in videos in which they swapped places, with Adam reviewing the "S.H Figuarts" Captain America, Marvel's Bend and Flex Venom, WWE Summer Slam The Miz, and the Nendoroid Aqua from Konosuba, and Jobby reviewing his S.H Monsterarts Shin Godzilla review, disguised as the movie Avengers Grimm.
*Adam does not like .EXE games due to the fact that they mostly consist of poorly edited renders of the characters they are based off of and are filled with cheap jump scares, with Sonic.EXE being an example. Although, he is legitimately terrified of Majin Sonic from Sonic CD, which is popular amongst Sonic.EXE fans, as he admitted that as a child it really unsettled him.
**The only .exe character genuinely he likes is Sunky from Sunky.MPEG (a lighthearted parody of Sonic.EXE), because he's "a good boy".
* Adam has a burning hatred for Asylum movies, as they mostly consist of cheap mock busters that rip off various successful films and have little to no effort put in them.
** He considers the Asylum film, Hornet (a rip off of the 2018 film, Bumble Bee) to be the worst movie he has ever seen, criticizing the boring plot, terrible writing and false advertising. He also found the main characters to be annoying and unlikable, as at one point he hoped that the titular robot Hornet would kill them after he was supposedly brainwashed since they were being incredibly mean and rude to him throughout the movie for no reason.
* The Super Mario Bros Movie is a guilty pleasure of his.
