Chris (birthday: July 1)[1], better known online as The Minebox, is an English YouTuber who makes Minecraft machinimas. During the time, he was first known as "FireHazardHobo", which was his original IGN in Minecraft. He later changed it to "The Minebox", so his name would be memorable to viewers. He does all his videos by himself; using a second account to act in his videos, creating his own music and editing his videos. When he first started creating videos, they were relatively short, ranging from 1 minute to 2/3 minutes at most. He did work with other YouTubers such as GameplayerHD, ExplodingTNT and BucketPlanks, and hosts his own Minecraft server, which he would ask his fans to star in his videos if need be. Beside of a few videos, he kept his videos mostly all actions for comedy, rather than using voice actors or text dialog.
Over the course of time, The Minebox eventually started to make his videos more lengthy, starting from 3 minutes, to 6 minutes. He also started to use text dialog for his characters. He has a second actor helping a long side with The Minebox.
