David Martin Nagle (Irish: Dáithí Máirtín De Nógla; born 6 July 1992), known professionally by his online name Nogla (formerly Daithi De Nogla), is an Irish YouTuber who produces gaming-related content. He has been described as one of Ireland's top YouTubers.[1]

Early life and education

David Martin Nagle was born a triplet on 6 July 1992 in County Limerick, Ireland.[2] As a child, he would play video games on his brothers' consoles and dream about making his own calendar, later got his own Nintendo 64 at the age of 16.[3] He studied early childhood care and education at the Institute of Technology, Tralee, before dropping out to work on his YouTube channel full-time. In 2014, during his time studying there, he reached a million subscribers on his YouTube channel.[4][5][6]

Internet career

Nagle began his YouTube channel in 2012 under the name 'Daithi De Nogla', making Let's Play videos of video games.[4][5][7] He has been called one of Ireland's top or most successful YouTubers by The Times,[8] The Irish Times,[7] Irish Independent,[9] and Irish Examiner.[10] As of January 2025, he has the third most-subscribed channel in Ireland.[1] His content features himself playing games with a group of online friends and content creators, colloquially known as the "Vanoss Crew", with its "leader" being fellow YouTuber VanossGaming.[3]

In 2020, Nagle headed one of ten official YouTube gaming squads composed of online content creators to compete in the game Call of Duty: Warzone. The tournament's prize of $100,000 was donated to the Call of Duty Endowment in honour of Military Appreciation Month.[11] Nagle officially rebranded his channel from 'Daithi De Nogla' to just 'Nogla' on Christmas Day in 2021.[12]

He shares a channel with fellow Vanoss Crew member, Terroriser, where they discuss internet news and react to viral videos.[13] On 13 October 2025, he transferred ownership of his secondary channel "Nogla Plus" to his brother, Andrew; the channel was subsequently renamed to "Brogla".[14]
