DiamondNinja

Jacob Twomey-Lyons (born 17 May 2006), known online as DiamondNinja, is a New Zealand YouTuber, producer and singer-songwriter who primarily uploads Minecraft-related content and songs. He is notably known for appearing in a hoodie, wearing a black hood over his hoodie and using text to speech in his videos.

Life
Twomey was born to an Irish family living in New Zealand. His father, Charles Twomey (born 1974) was a banker, while his mother, Lauren Lyons (born 1973) worked as a call center agent. Charles left in 2017 after being caught cheating with another woman, but returned a few months later.

Career
Twomey has 500 thousand subscribers on YouTube and 280 million total views, with an additional 4K Twitter followers.

A distinguishing feature of Twomey is his cyan hoodie, which has a picture of the Minecraft in-game item diamond. He always wears it with the hood on, with a black morphsuit hood over it to give the illusion of his face being hidden in darkness. He also uses text to speech commentary in lieu of his real voice, but eventually discontinued in 2020, opting for his real voice.

His gameplay consists mostly of Minecraft survival gameplays, as well as his Minecraft Mod Showcases. He doubles as a singer and has made collabs with other singers from New Zealand. He uses FL Studio for making music.
