Danger Dolan

Dolan is portrayed as being kind hearted and care-free, yet somewhat dimwitted, as shown by his explanations on various questions being outlandish and hard to believe, and conflict often arises between himself and other Planet Dolan characters (Notably Shima Luan and Melissa) when his ideas are challenged. He is also very naive, seemingly having little to no knowledge about anything a typical person would know, which leads to him being easy to manipulate by others. Very occasionally, Dolan will correctly answer a submitted question, such as in the Super Planet Dolan episode "Can You Inflate a Balloon Underwater?", which is shown to surprise him.

Dolan is a white, humanoid figure, with no discernible physical features other than eyes that have no pupil color. He is shown to have other body parts on some occasions, such as a nose, but only when needed for comedic value. Dolan wears a blue, puffy hat with a black ribbon coming from the top. Besides that, he wears no clothing. Dolan often wears other clothing, but only when it's required for comedic value.

Dolan first started making YouTube book review videos, but later moved on to gaming videos, primarily World of Warcraft, in 2012 under the name DoubleDragon Guides (TheDDGuides). In this time he would make fact videos about WOW that would end up as the template to his future content.

In 2014, he started the Danger Dolan YouTube channel that would later be rebranded as Planet Dolan. In this time he would make countdown videos on various different topics narrated by himself, and later in 2015 a small team of others, such as Doopie and Hellbent, a decision that split his fan base. Also in this year he would make a movie countdown channel that only lasted roughly three months, called Planet Dolan MOVIES, and would also create Super Planet Dolan, an animation channel that answers fan-submitted questions. This would become his most popular channel.

A long hiatus from Super Planet Dolan began on 9 May, 2021, due to Dolan starting production on a computer animated cartoon pilot called “DESTRUNA” in 2019, and the finished episodes having been uploaded with none remaining on the stack.

A currently ongoing hiatus began on 31 March, 2024, when Dolan was hired by Glitch Productions to work as a producer for their shows.
