The worst thing was watching him attempt to conceal his glee through the smiles and excitement that echoed throughout the video, with lines such as "This is a first for me." and "This is a top 5 moment". He turned the tragic situation of someone very recently taking their own life and spun it into an "experience", that he didn't hesitate to exploit for his own personal gain. It's very depressing viewing.
Just watched Aki’s video now and wrote pretty much the same thing but thank you for making this video. Every point you and Aki made were so important and needed to be heard. 早く出てけっとしか今は思えないね。なんだか辛いね。
I'm agreed the one youtuber I don't know who.(Don't kill me) Logan Paul recently act on Suicide Forest Making us feel ashamed what peoples have become today. Not only he and his friends making a fun of dead person,but when they are a actually laughing for doing that skit,Which is a god damn abomination that make my urge to eliminate him from this world.they are disrespect not only towards deads,But along with Japanese community and us from all around the world😠
A Past teacher of mine who has yearly trips to japan SAW Logan Paul in the airport and tweeted about it. Even tagged him and pointed out "here is a very disrespectful man "
Logan: "In Japan, It's all about the RESPECT..." Disobeyed the rules Goes to a Prohibited place without permission Made fun of people with his childish act Films a dead body Laughs at a dead body SUCH HYPOCRICITY!
It could be hypocricity. On the other hand, he could also be saying it sarcastically or mockingly, which brings him down to a new low....... honestly can't believe it......
I find it infuriating that people are apologizing for making videos in response to Logan Paul more than Logan Paul is actually apologizing for his video.
jack newtron He shouldn't only get banned from the country but youtube wtf are they doing that could be so important instead of handling this situation?
He doesn't want to go to Japan anymore when he lives in the greatest country in the world where they have everything he needs. He is not in Japan anymore.
I cant believe i used to like his content, like wtf i became his "fan" like a couple hours after he released the suicide forest video, i watched his older vlogs and then proceeded to watch the most recent one at the time which is the suicide forest video, whoo boi i dont know why i used to like him
It was my 10 year old daughter who showed me this. She doesn't watch Logan Paul, but her friend loves him and sent her the video. She came running into my room with this look of both horror and anger saying " How do you get a video off youtube?" I was confused and she showed me even though she didn't have to, cause it was trending, but I saw it and the amount of anger and hate I felt towards this man just risen to a new level. She asked me is it real and if that man was okay and why he was laughing. In our family mental illness is prominant I have Bipolar Disorder and the last strong depressive suicidal actions i've happened in early January of 2015 so seeing this brought out many other emotions. My daughter unfortunately has to deal with the reality of this. Her grandfather my step-dad suffers from a severe form of bipolar disorder and when he is up and great he's the best person, but this time it was bad and he tried to kill himself just last week on klonopin ( which is a benzo) this video was beyond horrific for her she gave me the question of " Is this how it is. Is this how you feel. Why would he do this and post this. I don't understand. Tell me why?" The only answer I had for her was " What this man did does not reflect all humans. What he did was horrible. This place is a place where people go when they lose their battle and is their last time on earth. What he did was disrespect this place of sadness he also didn't do the right thing by leaving and saying " I can't do this." This man does not reflect others and I can assure you it won't affect me and your grandpa doesn't even know how to use a remote. Just stay away from him and if your friend decides that she can forgive this than i'll talk to her parents or to her whichever. You are both too young to experience and see these things. I want you to know I love you and i'm not going anywhere and to pray or bless this man who lost his battle that he is resting and pray for his family who is sad. But, don't let this hurt you. You did good coming to me. I love you." That's all I could say. Even when she is on the kids platform or talking to her friends that doesn't mean links can't be shown. This man is truly disgusting and needs to go away and reflect on all he's done and the young minds he is showing this stuff too. People who defend him. I know you are blinded by your love for your idol, but you must see that you don't do this. You don't film a dead body and you don't continue on filming. He may have shown shock, but that didn't stop him from filming. That to me shows a lot about him. It's about the view count not the content and he deserves a downfall. If you don't agree well... I don't apologize and you can continue living in your denial world. But, the rest of us will not tolerate it.
Boy,u totally have my respect.You literally have shown more intelligent and mature than loan Paul did.im telling u that your sister is really lucky to have someone wise like u to explain her the reality of the situation.congrats👍
***Something Joey didn’t mention/I haven’t seen it in the comments about this*** I am a psychology major, and we learned about a phenomenon. It has a crude name, but it’s most commonly known as “copycat suicide”. When suicide is shown in popular social media (whether a TV show like “13 Reasons Why” or Logan’s vlog), it actually shows signs of triggering an influx of suicides. It’s extremely insensitive of him to post that for a plethora of reasons, but he could’ve possibly triggered his viewers too.
Holy moly I didn't realize so many people would see my comment, but I'm very happy everyone has! It's so so important to be aware that this kind of phenomenon exists
Stephanie G. Thx you of tall us this i never know why this a thing to a read this comment I did not know this can cost people to do this copy cat thing that show u there thing in this world so not be show on tv or RUclips or Netflix
Stephanie G. Honest question. Would copycat suicide can/would/ever be taken as mocking one's suicide or use someone's suicide to their own benefit only?
No, I wouldn't say that. I'll use the show "13 Reasons Why" as an example. In the series, they show the main character (the one who sadly committed suicide) planning and conducting the whole process of her suicide. People already suffering with depression, suicidal thoughts, etc. would see this and possibly take their own life in the same manner. Copycat is just a popularized "term" for this phenomenon, but others refer to it as a "contagion" too... I don't know; both seem like sort of wrong ways to present it. There are actually reports out there of real life people who had taken their life and left tapes (like the main character in the show did) for people. It's the popularization of things like "13 Reasons Why" or Logan Paul's video that could be triggering and encourage someone who has had thoughts of taking their own life to actually carry through and do it.
The first time I visited Tokyo, when I was 5, I saw a girl fall from a window and kill herself right before my eyes. Seeing something that tragic has always made anything in relation to suicide something that effects me on an extremely personal level. My father grew up in Japan, and his best friend in high school also ended her own life suddenly when she was only 18. I have also lost two family members to it. Suicide is absolutely nothing to take lightly, and I find Logan Paul both repulsive and disgusting. That person felt as though they had no other option than to end their own life. The fact that he made it a cheap ploy to get views enrages me on a whole other level.
Sakura Stardust biased view point. I've seen suicide first hand too and I still employ dark sarcastic humor. Felt sorry for the person, and I've dealt with suicide and depression personally. I just take an unbiased amoral standpoint
"dark humor" is different from using a dead body in a thumbnail on a youtube video and making jokes about it only minutes after. Also, the whole point is that his actions were unethical, you can't take an amoral standpoint on a moral issue and then call someone biased. And lastly, if this is bias against Logan's actions, what would be bias FOR Logan's actions/is bias invalid? Morals are literally a social code of conduct, if someone doesn't abide by them, maybe that's their prerogative and their right as a human being, but they should expect to get shit for it. If I were Logan (and if Logan actually had 2 brain cells to spare) I would have at least thought about the response I'd get for it and act accordingly; however you want to put it, Logan is absolutely retarded.
It certainly is biased, but my point is that you can't take the social constructs out of it. Emotions are a basic part of human nature. Morals exist because as humans we can experience these emotions on both an individual basis and a group basis, ex. the personal thoughts going through one's head after a family member dies versus the Boston Strong movement and similar ones (that specifically comes to mind because I'm from the Boston area, there's many more like it), and most humans understand that there are certain ways to act to avoid tampering with other people's emotions. Morals literally exist because we know that, if somebody shows a dead guy on youtube, put mildly it will hurt someone's feelings, and we wouldn't want our feelings hurt in the same way. To be honest I'm not mad about showing the dead body on youtube, it's mainly about the fact that it was used in his thumbnail and it was presumably not even an hour after he saw the dead body that he started making jokes about it. That said, I still do think that showing the body on youtube was disrespectful to that person and their family. These are just my thoughts, however, and therefore still subjective and biased. Also, side note, I respect the fact that we could have a civilized debate about this instead of just going back and forth saying dumb shit, doesn't happen a lot on youtube.
Snakez29 True, I'm glad about that too. Earlier today I was having a debate with myself about taking the social constructs out of things and how everything could be potentially subjective, and not have any order and just be nothing but chaos and uncertainty. Then I reminded myself about how us humans have been able to bring order and balance to alot of things through our subjectiveness as well as through objective means too. We find comfort in familiarity and order and we keep it that way so things don't get out of hand. I just like to take views that push the envelope sometimes lol. You're right on this one, plus emotions stem from chemical reactions in the brain, morals and ethics stem from those emotions and the logic we have formed through the years, so while something may be subjective it doesn't necessarily make it wrong. :)
I appreciate you for that lmao that's an interesting viewpoint to have. If he hadn't joked about it after I would probably have been less biased myself, it just really gets to me. I'm glad we could have this conversation, really made me think about shit
When I saw Logan's video I actually cried - it was just so disturbing. He was literally SCANNING HIM with his camera and I just thought "oh my lord that was a person, who was so alone, and ended their life to end their suffering. AND NOW THEY ARE BEING BROADCAST TO MILLIONS OF PPL?!" I saw it as an invasion of the victim's privacy....
There's somethings that make me think:actually,he don't need to do his "crap" for getting a lots of attention,he don't need to film a dead body and laughed it for "suicide awareness and suicide prevention",and make the sorry video if he know that was completely wrong from the beginning.
Kayleigh Griva imagine this: a group of tourists visit a circus and they came across a person who was abused and felt depressed, sad and alone. He tried begging for help but never came. The group of tourists just proceeded to snap pictures at the person and starts laughing at the person making the person even more alone than ever. The tourists are literally Logan Paul in the Aokigahara Forest video.
I don't know who is worse Logan Paul or his diehard fanbase that thinks laughing at a dead body and showing disrespect is perfectly fine since the person doing it is their idol: Logan Paul.
Imani Imvu I think he's being sarcastic (because of the dabs). But that's the scary thing about his fanbase... you think what they are saying is so ridiculous they had to be sarcastic, but they're not
Man, I feel this. Over the years, I've seen a ton of travel vlogs that have people climbing around on, sitting down on, and running and jumping on the Holocaust memorial in Berlin. To me, that is one of the most disrespectful things a person could possibly do; those rocks represent hundreds of thousands of innocent people who were murdered horribly. Germans take this history, and the inherited guilt that comes with it, very seriously. It's personal to us, and we want to keep the memory of these crimes alive to keep history from ever repeating itself. The memorial is a solemn and sad place, not some jungle gym for uneducated tourists to climb around on and make asses of themselves. It's truly unbelievable to me how some people seem completely unable to do even the tiniest amount of research before visiting a place, just assuming that they can do whatever they want.
@@ludity7628 It has nothing to do with being young or old, and everything to do with being willfully ignorant. Regrettably, that is a trait that can be found in people of all ages.

-Like if you feel sad- -Like if you feel pissed- *Like if you know that Logan only did this for the views and attention and unfortunately he's getting more of it.*
@@fungisrock8955 Logan fucking Paul fans... I wonder how stupid does his elitist fanbase get. If I ever meet him in real life, I'll meat him and serve him for dinner
When Joey said, “Logan, Get The F**k out Of My Country.” I had chills going down my spine. I was surely mad about the Logan Paul Video, However; I was scared when I saw Joey this mad. I don’t think we ever saw him this mad in a video. . . This is a lesson to all of us.
@@kinglylogan1210 I- I bestow a protector above you because holy shit. If my name was Logan, and Joey was addressing this to a “Logan” i would have died on the spot.
Even leaving your chopsticks upright in a bowl of rice is disrespectful to the dead, why the hell would he think filming a dead man who probably was suffering a good idea!? It's downright disgusting.
Honestly i never knew about the chopstick thing. But on a real sidenote yea this just goes to show you how immature Logan Paul really is. Even my little brother who is in 8th grade wouldn’t have done something like that. Seriously messed up.
Andy Voigt Logan Paul basically goes to the Suicide Forest and films a dead body vlogs about it and Uses the Body as a Thumbnail for his RUclips video. He also throws in some giggles here and there.
Infinitely harder. Honestly... if this were old school Japanese culture. We would have to bring the severed heads of Logan and all his bros to the Japanese government just to be allowed passage back into the country. Actually scratch that. Logan and his buddies would have already had their heads chopped off and sent back to the States with a letter pretty much declaring our permanent banning from their country.
No need to apologise, my lad. You're involved with the subject and passionate about it. And if people don't like you talking about it, they can watch something else.
totally agreed, its honestly such a disgrace to the whole youtube community, from creators to viewers, he has made so much controversy and stirred up so much bad publicity smh, he is just a dick tbh (logan lol, not joey) and the fact that youtube hadn't done anything in response to his video is really just disappointing
I was crying when I saw this because my friend committed suicide. When she did, I went to that forest with a noose and a few ropes because I. Was. Done. But then someone walked up to me and said, "please do not commit suicide, if you are struggling you can talk or call your local therapist or talk to someone you can trust that might help you" it took me a second but I didnt. Even if someone dies you can't give up just because your sad. I get it but it's not the way to go. I near ended my life because I was depressed. All lives matter and if you struggling talk to someone. *suicide is nothing to joke about, if you are deppresed, please DO NOT commit suicide and joke about suicide many people have ended their lives.*
I hope you are okay now and has found peace. I've been there, I'm struggling just as well... but all I hope is somewhere along the line we all see that light we needed. Stay strong. Stay healthy. Stay safe. Live.
@@grzybciupospolity so good to hear that. I hope you stay this way because there are many reasons to live and enjoy your life. Stay take, take care. :)
It’s not even just basic etiquette for the Japanese culture but basic etiquette for human beings. I just can’t believe that he could just waltz in there like he owns the fucking place.
@@uzi_spaz379 Yes it was wrong because it's extremely disrespectful to the person that killed themselves and anybody who killed themselves or tried to. Logan could have just turned his camera off for a few minutes, not film the body and leaving the body alone in peace instead of filming it and laughing at it. So you really think that this is not disrespectul and offensive?
@@uzi_spaz379 Judging from the horrible things he still does even after the suicide forest incident, I highly doubted he learned anything. The apology video was probably a ploy to get more sympathy points.
@@uzi_spaz379 it's really easy to say "omg giys I'm so sorry and I regret everything I've done" We're on RUclips lots of people do that for damage control and I wouldn't doubt if logan did that as well. It was his choice to film it. After he filmed it and edited it he had time to reconsider and find this wrong after he got time to think about it. But still did none of that and kept the video. If he actually did find what he did wrong he wouldn't have even done it in the first place as he probably had plenty of time to reconsider his actions but yet did it AFTER he gets hate for it. Ask yourself is he being genuine or is he just trying to save skin.
@@uzi_spaz379 I agree with all the previous comments 110% but wanted to add one thing, imagine someone who found a dead body looked at it and laughed say oh hahaha your life so sad you had to kill yourself hahaha. And that basically what Logan Paul did he could have shown respect and even for a second turned his camera off even if he did film it he could said a message afterwards saying suicide is not and or never the answer, but instead he filmed it took a close up and said "like if you feel sad" honestly how sad and disrespectful does that sound, if you don't think so than, i am concerned for you and the life you will live
Anyone who has been to Aokigahara knows there are signs everywhere IN ENGLISH that say you are NOT to leave the path and that access is restricted. You SAW him step over the barrier rope and he even said, "We're leaving the path now.." I could understand that bcuz he and his mates are immature that they may have initially thought that entering the forest is cool - like visiting a haunted house or something, as I know from experience that people are skeptical as to whether people actually do go to the forest to commit suicide (thinking that maybe it's a marketing ploy to get tourists to visit the area), but it comes back to this: He filmed, and even did close ups, of a human being who was so desperately unhappy that he decided to commit suicide. Then he and his friends laughed about it. TO ALL THOSE WHO FOLLOW OR DEFEND LOGAN, HIS BROTHER AND FRIENDS: GET THE POINT - LOGAN DID NOT HAVE TO UPLOAD THE FOOTAGE, PERIOD. And it wasn't just HIS reaction that made me sick, but THE WHOLE GROUP SHOULD BE ASHAMED OF THEMSELVES!!! Trivialising human suffering for financial gain and/or fame is...quite honestly all I can think of to describe it is as SCUM. And the fact that the majority of his audience are kids...that just puts his disgraceful disregard for the impact of his actions at a low reserved only for the worst of our society!! RUclips needs to BAN both of the PAULs AND their two friends shown in the video. And Logan needs to take a bloody good hard look at himself and hopefully decide he's going to grow up and not act like a POS for the 15Mil kids who follow him, bcuz at the end of the day he's a role model, and he needs to take responsibility for his actions. If he was REALLY SORRY he would remove his CHANNEL, not just the video (which has subsequently been re-posted by others). His parents must be so very, very, very disappointed in him. I don't know how anyone could show their face after doing something like this - it's unbelievable.
J Lastname calling someone who's following the path of a maverick immature, just shows how you like to misinterpreted things. That's being biased and ignorant
J Lastname I bet the pauler’s parents are too busy defending Logan right now and talking smack about everyone that’s against them right now. And he just did a movie with RUclips Red so I doubt they gonna do anything. Even with the amount of annoyance he did on set, the thinning directors still dealt with it bc Logan knew we was the star of the movie and that they wouldn’t fire him. It’s just the amount of times he’s taken advantage of situations is so sickening, he knowingly goes overboard bc he does it for the views. Like dude you got your American dream, calm down and start moving on and evolve from the vlog life.
well duh..this man fucking showed a dead body,and have ZERO fucking respect for the person or japan..its disgusting..of course people would still be fucking pissed.
@@samarjeetbhonsle6000 There are some sins that u can't just move on from, my guy literally disrespected the japanese culture and the guy who commited suicide Even if he changed, there is no way he should be forgiven for this
A Highly Sophisticated Gentleman it's biased if someone looks at it from just one point of view and follows the bandwagon condemning the action. There are many non-moral standpoints on this right now.
Thing is, it's not overly biased if a lot of people have spoken about this in a civilized, educated, and respectful manner. It's not hard to understand why they feel and think this way either if you've seen both sides like others did.
feteFOX of course it's clear to see why they feel that way, but I have to disagree on the part that it isn't overly biased because tons of people take that stance on it. It doesn't matter how many people agree on or take a certain stance if that stance is biased in and of itself. Case in point alot of people are thinking emotionally on the subject at hand right now
Logan should put that video down.He acted in a way that is personally offensive to me.He also got everyone offended.Basically Fuck Logan and his stupid shit.He should maybe get his mind checked.
fortunately he has pulled the video down, but that doesn't excuse his actions, he's gonna need something special to get my forgiveness, suicide is not a joke, disrespecting another culture is not a joke and under no circumstance should either of these EVER be used to gain media popularity
@@reddead0514 I almost want to make that my new ringtone. It is pure truth, a truth that is like music to my ears. It is probably the strongest statement Joey has ever made.
Ive heard better closing statements but it seems his video is almost 0% scripted and just talking on the spot. Anyone could say gtfo but he stands out for the confidence to say it direct in a public video.
Although completely unrelated, Trump’s comments regarding Charlottesville are also scary. At least he hasn’t commented about Logan, but then again, he probably doesn’t give a fuck.
The day before Logan posted his video, my friend attempted suicide by swallowing a handful of pills. She's in the hospital right now as I type this. The day I saw the video, I physically raged. I nearly destroyed my bedroom because of how *disrespectful* it was. To that person. To that person's family and friends. To everybody who knew a person that committed suicide. To everybody in Japan. And I'm so, *so* happy to know that people like Joey, Aki, Terry, and so many more people are addressing this. Thank you to all the RUclipsrs who are addressing this, who aren't ignoring it, who are taking a stand. I appreciate you so much that words can't even explain. And thank you to all the viewers who share or like videos like this, making this matter known and how disrespectful it is.
It’s because they don’t care about their own morals anymore. They only want money at this point. The Paul’s bring in so much money for RUclips and so they won’t get rid of them. Money over morals is what is happening nowadays and it is sad.
i gotta say i'm an asian to be precise i'm from Malaysia i've been to japan twice the people the culture may seem different and i'm a stranger in a strange land but japan is where ive felt peace like all burden that weighted my shoulders just being lifted and its been a year since logan did that vid but seing his vlog made me lose some faith in humanity to think such entertainer,such big influencer to disrespectful as fuck No wonder in my community they hated the whites they dont even call the whites infact the call them yankees but to those who I know is out there who is good better than some guy name Logan be proud of your self Be proud that you are not the trash that still reeks on the sidewalks of life
Another Malaysian here too, I have only ever been to Japan once, when I was younger but I absolutely loved to place and to see things like this happening to a place where I had a few beautiful childhood memories...what can I say? I'm disappointed in some people
This is why if I ever start videos, they won't be on RUclips. The reason why RUclips hasn't done anything us because the Paul brothers are stupidly popular and make them money.
I'm one of the few who never got to see the video, due to the fact that he took it down after receiving backlash. Looking at it from an objective standpoint, he was either completely oblivious to the consequences of his actions or he deliberately did that to gain attention. Some RUclipsrs are actually happy that he did that, just so they can make a video, making a profit off of speaking about something trending. What he did was very unintelligent on his part and it's very ignorant for his cult that's trying to defend him on his actions, calling US the "hAtErS" while in reality, he messed up big time, and he needs to own up for his actions.
Just Some Guy without a Mustache his apology wasn’t even a real apology. He didn’t own up to his actions or even say the words sorry. His apology could have been so much better.
Just Some Guy without a Mustache I am with you, though I have never been out of the us, I have wanted to travel to Japan one day. I love Japanese culture and people. I hate, what Logan Paul has done. He deserves more than what he got. At least, he needs the police to scold him and lecture him. Maybe even to be sent back to school, to be educated on what is right and wrong.
Just Some Guy without a Mustache i just watched it and oh my god. What the f is wrong with this guy?? He also realised his mistake after seeing the body by saying "why did the jokes become have to become real" and quickly tries to "joke away his true feelings" and his friend was just smiling. Like wtf??
Don’t be sorry. It’s a shame that the first video of the year is about something negative, but something needed to be said. I can only hope that RUclips sees this reaction and takes matters into their own hands.
Shadow_Owl242 fuck off yea this time i dont care if i get a report but even thow this click bait you guys are fuking jeluse so dont strat whit that bullshit biches
Still shocked and upset the video ever happened. That video was one of my first few interactions with the topic of suicide. I was a 9-11 year old with a crap iPad. I remember trying to defend him because I didn’t understand the weight of it. Now I do because I’m now a survivor of suicide attempts and realize the utter disrespect.
My little sister commited suicide not in the suicide forest but she jumping off our apartment building into the road below it happened when I was young but it traumatised me. She was epileptic and couldn't take the pain anymore. She was my little sister and I failed to protect her... I failed her. Everyday it eats away at me. It's not hard to realise you need to use respect. We were both adopted into japanese families by loving parents. We grew up in Japan. And when she passed people were respectful. To see him do that made me sick. That was messed up. Suicide is not some thing you use to get attention. When Kazune died I wanted nothing more but to disappear. I'm not asking for pity I'm not asking for comfort. I'm asking for sick freaks like him to stay out of our country... I may not have japanese blood but i was raised there! We lived there we loved the country! Japan saved me from my abusive birth parents. I'm proud to have been raised there and to be considered one of them. So get out of our country before I kick you out.
As a japanese, this just makes me fking sad how ppl go to aokigahara just for “fun and giggles”. Japanese ppl dont travel other countries just to disrespect other countries, we try so hard to be polite and respect everyone at all times because we want the respect we deserve. I just dont understand how someone, an adult who can decide for himself, can do this type of stuff.
I want to go there one day, not for fun, but to pay my respects and see a (in the words of TAM himself) really pretty forest. But i totally understand if the Japanese government bans foreigners from going in there after this.
I'm caucasian and seeing this upsets me; Logan basically disregarded someone who has been deceased. Thought it's not only him, I saw people in my freshmen year record fights on the school premises and were excited when someone, commonly a girl, hit another person, also a girl. I could not understand the pleasure of hurting someone and disrespecting them for fun.
Meerai 佐藤 They just don't know when to be respectful and when to joke and i wish i could go to japan and pay my respects to all of the people that passed away for their own reason.
*I'm not even Japanese but I respect your culture very much: based on respect. I am deeply shocked and I would like to present my condolences to the whole family of the deceased and his friends. I am so sorry and hope that the Japanese people will not hate foreigners because of disrespectful minority. A friend from Brussels*
InnoatalHydra309 Well that doesn't really make sense does it 😂 To be a genuinely good person you need to have good morality, sometimes people do "good" for their own selfish reasons
Imo, the best way to proceeded with the whole thing would be to just make a video, explaining, "Hey, so I won't be posting my original vlog because we found a dead body..." But nope. He recorded it and made it a joke
I stayed the night with a friend a couple of days ago and she loves Logan and Jake. And she asked me why I didn’t like them and that they were good people. I looked at her and said “ they are awful people, they are disrespectful and need to grow up.” And she said whatever and continued to talk about them. This proves and rests my case. They need to stop, this is an awful way to start the year
I remember when this happened a kid recorded himself saying that the person who hung them selves should’ve been proud to have been in a Logan Paul video just goes to show you how Logan manipulates kids
@@samarjeetbhonsle6000 That's the problem. People, such as yourself, actually believe that he has changed. He only "changed" because he absolutely had to as even his 12 year old fans started to dislike him. He gladly exploited them their lack of critical thinking. He even does this today, with the whole "Pokemon expert" situation and that crypto currency.
@@sdHansy he changed by not changing, he basically stopped acting like this hype cringey ass dude on camera and just started being himself, is he perfect? hell fking now, but I do appreciate him even considering it cuz it's rare af these days to see that...
Well that and that he threatened a female former viner. This is one of the first time that people are seeing that while Jake is bad, Logan is that type of malignant person that should have never been famous.
What makes me really upset is that vloggers EDIT their videos. He watched that back and edited it and STILL thought it was okay to keep all the little jokes in and the part where discovered the tragic scene. He could have easily edited it out and had a sit-down video talking about the subject matter and how you are not alone. Not mock it. Why do we make stupid people so famous...
I don't think he edits his own videos, and he is really busy with everything he does. I'm thinking he sent it his editor as usual, with the normal wealth of footage. And he probably maybe told him/her to include certain big things, maybe said include the body, but blur the face or something. And then *poof*, it's gone until it's edited and sent back to him to post on his channel. I doubt he really had a lot of time to think about it. Also realize that Logan is probably someone that is very, very happy in life, and to someone like that suicide wasn't really something someone thinks about, and to him maybe seeing the actual body really changed his thoughts on it and he thought maybe it would do the same to some people watching it. What he did was wrong, but he didn't edit his own vid atleast imo and didn't think about it too much.
Yeah that’s the thing that completely gets me I don’t understand how you could sit there and watch the footage back and yet you still upload it so this tells me that he actually has no remorse for what he’s actually done
As a person who has attempted to commit suicide 3 times it disgusts me beyond a doubt that he did that. It's so fucking disgusting that Logan Paul did that.
@@LabLab3029 this means a lot to me because I've been recently having a depressive episode and was ready to relapse and cut but this comment popped up and I actually smiled for the first time in days. So thank you.
So I have Depression and I'm a psychology student in college. I think suicide is a huge deal and shouldn't be taken lightly at all. If Logan ever knew what those thoughts were like, that melancholy feeling that you're not good enough for this world, then he would have respected the body more too, just like he should have understand the cultural differences. I'm also a Muslim and I've seen my fair share of ignorant tourists whenever I was in Jordan visiting family. They'd ask questions straight out "hey are you bald under that scarf?"
I'm a Law student and yes suicide is a serious case scenario, if you stumble upon a dead body calling the authorities would be the first thing to do. Logan's action was disgusting, disrespectful and sick in the head. Filming a dead person and post onto the internet for views, is a serious offence.
Skygazer she's not bald because Muslim/Islam women covering their parts of the body like example a hijab is Islam religion culture not to expose some of the body parts.
To be honest , I'm more scared on what will happen to the future. Seeing how people react to this controversy, I can say that there are some who lacks emphaty and respect. Its just sickening to see people saying, "Why respect someone who doesn't respect himself" or "Goodjob gaining views since you used Logan as clickbait to" I mean, people what the heck is wrong with you?!
[This is a very, very long comment if you're going to read it] Logan Paul. To be honest, I'm not shocked by this. Both Pauls are already known for going around and being disrespectful to pretty much everyone who isn't American or male, or a bro. Or into their stupid way of life where they pull dabbing and god only knows what else out to get views on a platform that should not be tolerant of this behaviour. What I want to see is this getting his contracts terminated. Because actually, if he isn't punished for this, it'll prove RUclips has double standards for Vloggers vs. Gaming RUclipsrs given what happened with Pewdiepie for what was a far less disrespectful video. I'm glad to see this has managed to get a far more hideous backlash as what he has done is terrible. No amount of quote-on-quote 'like if you feel sad' can subtract from the fact that what Logan has done is fucking disgusting. How abhorrent to film a dead body. How fucking stupid do you have to be? Firstly. That should be a straight up termination, not a community guidelines strike, he's just walked up to someone who is someone's son, maybe someone's brother, or uncle, or father, and filmed them for views on a platform because he's always trying to get in on the RUclips algorithm favouring him and his blatantly stupid videos. Apparently RUclips likes to cash in on how fucking stupid and uneducated some people are. Secondly. His entire Japan series should be removed and each one on its own should be a community guidelines strike. The cultural appropriation, the blatant racism, the jokes that would get most people demonetized in a flash and in some cases have their channels terminated for even doing once in a video? Why is he not being punished?! RUclips *has* to do something. Thirdly. He actually should be punished by law as it was found in that video that he was in an area he wasn't supposed to be in. At all. As in, restricted area of the forest. Somewhere he should never have been in, in the first instance. This disrespect is why people like him should have bans on going to other countries. I will not be shocked if he's never allowed back. He shouldn't even be allowed to stay in the country after that. What a way to start 2018, great job Logan you're a fucking idiot. Hope this destroys his channel. It's not like he can even say it was an accident. He edited the fucking video, he had time to realise that what he was doing was so absurdly disrespectful and obscene. But no, all he can think is "I'll never get in trouble with RUclips. I'll get more views if I show an actual dead body on RUclips, I'll get more subs, I'll get more of that RUclips money because they'll never demonetize me, I'm Logan Paul they'd never do that" - I just so hope he gets kicked down so hard by RUclips he learns to put his goddamn camera away. Sorry for the rant to anyone who's still reading at this point but it's not like I can make a video to get this point out, unlike Joey and everyone else who's been angered by this, I don't have a camera or the equipment to sit down and talk to an audience. And we call Weeaboos stupid, uncultured and uneducated... really we should be saying this about channels like Logan and Jake's who shouldn't be allowed to travel.
ReanikMusicOfficial read it all and what you said really hit the mark, couldn't have said it better. I love the culture of Japan and as a human being, should always respect others. Whenever somebody is having suicidal thoughts like this or just to see somebody sad and depressed, as a human being we need to reach out to them and try to have them shed a smile. Be that small light in their life even if it's just a little.
Joshie Pie thank you very much honestly. I'm actually surprised that the comment hasn't been slated for me basically tearing into one of the biggest RUclipsrs on the platform.
Suicide is a real problem, particularly in Japan. Anyone who knows someone who died in that way understands why this is wrong, but you don’t have to have known someone personally who died that way in order to understand why you don’t exploit the death of an individual for likes and views. I will never forgive Logan Paul for this, no matter how many years pass by, I recognize he is a mentally unstable individual, but he went too far for me personally to ever forgive him.
I don't think joey was harsh enough, as someone who suffers with unbelievably bad anxiety (to the point where I get frequent anxiety attacks), clinical depression (which I've had for years), stress and suicidal thoughts I am upset and disappointed. I love japan, I am Japanese. It's disgusting how he pranced around Japan disrespecting all of the culture. It's even worse how he made fun of serious issues! Seeing the body of someone who has committed suicide really affects people like me, people who suffer with depression, anxiety and suicidal thoughts, I broke down when I saw it and I won't be okay for awhile... Hate is a strong word, but it doesn't even begin to explain how I feel about Logan Paul and what he has done.
Then... Why would you watch it? Not trying to justify him posting the video in the first place, if you're sensitive to seeing suicide why would you got out of you're way to watch it (and assuming you watched the mostly uncensored version)???
I'm so pissed off that somebody who has such a big influence actually did something so repulsive. Visiting the forest with respect and knowledge is one thing. Finding a body and TURNING OFF THE CAMERA OUT OF *RESPECT AND COMMON SENSE* is one thing that can be forgiven by many people. But going to the forest without any knowledge or respect and finding a body, getting close up, and simply blurring the face is unforgivable. The simple fact somebody was shown is disgraceful and disgusting. USING THAT PERSON TO GET VIEWS is absolutely inhumane and wrong on every possible level. You can still watch Logan all you want, but please remember that he has done something absolutely unforgivable.
That's not a good excuse; just because "he didn't know", doesn't make it any less excusable. If he had just did a quick search on Japanese etiquette and rules concerning filming in Aokigahara, he could have avoided all of this controversy. Even then, common sense would dictate that you shouldn't just film a dead body; and if he did by accident, delete the footage, cut it out, or even black it out for crying out loud.
if he didn't know that you need to respect the dead, especially the RECENT dead regardless of what country or culture then he is a fucking imbecile who doesn't even deserve to be as big as he is now. I just hope he doesn't fucking disrespect anyone or anything else in Japan, because he not only makes foreigners look bad but he could be putting his own life at risk doing that. Even though I don't like him I don't think his own stupidity should get him or anyone harmed. Although he does deserve to be kicked out of Japan.
Imagine being the person who just got news that a family member committed suicide. And that person was laughed at and joked about in a video with over 20,000,000 views.
Tiberiu Zamfirescu the family would have never known if he didn't...honestly ppl quick to scrutinize every thing and blow shit out of proportion. The world is too fucking sensitive. He found a dead body...so what? Y'all act like he exploited the body. Dude never seen a dead body before and he took it a lot better than most others who would be losing their shit. Ppl are just mad his coping wasn't *THE NORM* and want to assume the worst and that he was laughing at the body. I understand how Logan wanted to bring awareness to this but the execution wasn't sound. TBH that was his only mistake.
'If he came here and pulled any of that shit, he wouldn't seen again' According my Dad's friend who happens to be an elder. She was BEYOND pissed and disgusted when I showed her the thumbnail and title. I didn't show her cause that's going to far. I just vaguely described it
I’m Australian as well and if that happened I would be incredibly disgusted to be honest, since most of my friends are Aboriginals or have lots of people in contact with them that are aboriginals. I really wish that this didn’t happen in Japan it’s really sad, and I feel even worse for the family of the person who was killed, who must be so sad.
hey man while you think this isn't a good video to start out 2018, i think it's a wonderful one. you're putting a strong message of respect out there. one so strong that i can only hope that it's one that impacts people and that they follow this strong example your setting. the way your voice wavers makes this video so emotional, so genuine, and i think it's one of the best ones talking about this situation as a whole, even talking about the other videos he's put out about japan. you've always been one of the few youtubers i look up to and have an insane amount of respect for and this just cements my admiration and support for you. thank you for being strong and speaking about this topic. i appreciate it. not many people take things with the level of seriousness and with as critical of an eye as you do and it needed to be presented this way, with all of the facts laid out. so a job well done, joey. i'm proud.
3 years later and this still pisses me off. What makes me more livid than anything is that he got off with just a slap on the wrist. The backlash he received ultimately amounted to nothing. He didn't suffer any consequences. That POS is more rich and famous than ever!! Ughhhh
He's a disrespectful person. He's gone to Japan and all he is doing is disrespecting thier culture. He makes me sick. When you go to a country you embrace their culture. He's so wrong and this vlog at the suicide forest tops it off. He's giving Americans a bad name.
“But guys, he apologized!” -Logan Paul Fan Using that same logic, if the people responsible for 9/11 suddenly stepped up and apologized, we should instantly forgive them. Because apologies fix everything! This isn’t two dollars you borrowed from your friend and just never gave back, it’s a dead person that you’ve disrespected and you can’t just apologize for that.
Heck, you don’t even have to be educated to know not to do something as disrespectful and disgusting as that. It takes the bare minimum moral consciousness and decency not to do something as abhorrent as that. And yet, he doesn’t even have that. The lowest of the low.
No man, It's like filming 9/11, vlogging and reacting to the planes crashing into the tower, laughing about it, than making the thumbnail a picture of 9/11 and uploading it.
That final part was beyond powerful. You could feel how genuine it is and I’m still disgusted with Logan’s actions. Despite how many years ago this was it will always be one of the most disrespectful and revolting things he could have ever done
The disgusting thing, is that he even edited the video, and maybe for an hour, but he never thought that was wrong. He was complete aware that he was using a body while editing and uploading the video, but don’t care. I never thought someone would be so disgusting and it makes me sick.
such a great point at what stage did it cross Logan's mind that maybe this is too f**king far you would think a man with such a large audience of young children would know when things are crossing the line or are child-friendly. yes, I get that we make mistakes but no one thinks it's a good idea to go to a suicide forest and then show a dead body (*might I add some of the kids watching his videos might not even know what suicide means) so disrespectful and disgusting.
my biggest fear is that if we continue to just forgive and put up with this it's going to become ok to post videos of dead bodies violate people personal lives
EXACTLY....he's a fucking grown man, he was the one editing the damn video! So in his opinion, what he posted was not wrong and that's what disgusts me. It's exactly like the pepsi commercial case with Kendall. She was aware of what she signed up for, but still did it anyways and got so much backlash for it lol karmas a bitch
First vid of the year? Didn’t even know that he posted a vid like that to be honest, going to Japan to travel and just disrespect their society? By joking around and doing some disrespectful s***. Woah, Logan just ruined my first day of the year, I feel disgusted by him. Agree with Joey 100% Edit: Woah please chill, not starting a fight here. Im just upset about how Logan would do such a thing- he’s really a person that can really change other people by inspiring them. But this such thing just make me sick . Videoing a dead body and saying “put a like if you feel sad”. (Something like that). And yes I do know that he didn’t know the rules nor warning, but he should’ve been smart enough that its illegal to show it on camera and just put in on social media...
질리안 Same. I had no idea this controversy was a thing until today. 2018 is supposed to be full of hope and we get this... Congratulations Logan. You’re an idiot
I was a fan of him...and I had notifications on. So I immediately clicked on the video when I got it. Before it got demonitized I had seen it...I was so shook when he suddenly filmed the body...I don't even wanna think about it...
Ironically, Logan Paul’s video proved why people commit suicide to begin with. He feeds a culture and brand that is fueled by pure trolling and hopelessness. That dude has ZERO respect, compassion or empathy for human beings in general. And I agree with you on RUclips as well. They are complicit. Shame on them as well. If I was surrounded by Logan Pauls’, I’d want to bounce from this world too.
I agree with you. I cannot stress enough how disrespectful it is to anyone. You don’t film a dead body, period, out of respect for the person and their family. I recently loss my grandparents in 2017 and the funeral service was bombarded with cameras everywhere, filming and taking pictures of not only my grief and my family’s grief, but of my grandparents as well. I’m still pissed off at the fact that my distant relatives filmed them during the casket opening service, feeling their bodies on film for whatever stupid reason, making snide comments, and finally, uploading it onto RUclips. Like who the fuck does that? I didn’t find out about it until my aunt found the video online. She, too, was obviously upset. And not only that, the funeral service turned into a joke for some Cambodian political troupe to use my grandparent’s death to push their agenda. My cousins and I didn’t have a chance to personally talk to our grandparents before cremation due to our privacy being invaded. So I think I have quite an understanding of the situation here. I don’t have much knowledge on Japanese cultural etiquette but even someone with a basic moral compass (should) know that what Logan did was disrespectful and idiotic. Thank you for addressing this.
The fact that people in the comments are actually defending him is really sickening. Respect for the dead (especially those who have committed suicide) should come naturally, and people have every right to be offended by what Logan has done. I seriously hope he's stopped soon because it's clear that controversy after controversy, he doesn't learn his lesson. Other than that, well said Joey.
Fhfjnf Dhjdhd It's disrespectful to that persons memory and their family. A man comitted suicide because he felt like life wasn't worth living. He needed help but didn't get it and now he's getting mocked and used as clickbait? I really don't feel like I have to explain why that's disgusting and wrong.
Personally being Japanese, or a human being in general, it surprises me that Logan was able to hit such a low from already where he is. It is simple and just common sense to follow rules and manner on anything. It’s not a Japanese issue, it is more of a human issue. People especially like Logan need to understand that once you hit an amount of popularity from doing “stupid things” per se, your content shifts from entertainment to a certain amount of influence and power which needs to be held responsibly. Absolutely disgusting.
I spent a week in Japan , with my daughter 7 years ago. I made every effort to be respectful of the culture and people. It is not hard to look up what not to do in a country.
I'm so angry and confused that RUclips allowed it to go up and even hit trending, the video was taken down by Logan himself and not RUclips... they're quick to take stuff down from other creators but not this which is 100x worse... As someone who suffers from depression and battles suicide everyday and have had friends commit suicide I'm offended on so many levels.
Please keep living, I have no clue who you are but if people who have depression speak out then others with depression will hear you, you can encourage more people by staying alive than being a casualty of the inner war
holyfox6894 just remember this. Almost all of the people that survived jumping off the golden gate bridge (to kill themselves) says that doing suicide isn't worth it. And that all your problems can be fixed.
People who dislike this, that means people who defend Logan Paul for what he did. And they are all hypocrites and got their minds brainwashed by Logan.
Lily Zubr That's because the comments are set as new first, which annoys me to no end. You can't even find any sane people in the comment section, I've tried setting it as top first but it doesn't work
I've seen a body, and as long as you don't know who they are, it is very exciting and scary, your heart rate will increase and you won't think clearly. Either way he acted as any human would and checked out the situation. I believe that that smile was due to denial, or something similar. It's not uncommon to laugh to brighten the mood or just a scared laugh.
Bro that isn’t coping there is a clear difference you don’t just laugh and smile like he did if ur coping with something like that espically if he put it in the thumbnail that’s just disrespectful in so many ways
Bone2BeWild Nah,I didn't even know that guy Logan before. Now I'm just shocked by the crazy number of subscribers/viewers to his videos. That makes me even more curious about the content in his channel..
I've had a friend, who died in that forest. Logan makes me sick to my stomach. Japan is a beautiful place and so is the forest, and I'm so sorry to anyone who had to deal with the same thing as me or the family member of the dead person. Thank you Joey for sticking up for people like me and others, you're amazing. If you are suicidal read this: You matter, you're amazing and special. I'm very sorry for why you're feeling this way. If you feel like no one loves you, I love you and care about you, I may not know you, but I hope you know I care. Goodbye for now
duh itz melisha An apology doesn't fix what he did. If it wasn't the dead body, it was how he went about treating Japan like a stereotype. That was just as disrespectful...
+duh itz melisha oh wow soo if he is sorry that gets him rights to a fucking record a video showing a poor dead person and laught at it ? ... welp thats a fuck up if you ask meh (sorry for gramer mistakes :D )
Sorry again guys, but I felt this was an important thing to address.
Regular videos will be back soon.
It’s ok
The Anime Man , it’s ok man we gotta hear you out
What news
The Anime Man don't be sorry your completely right this is why I don't watch his ass.
The Anime Man we got it taken down!
The worst thing was watching him attempt to conceal his glee through the smiles and excitement that echoed throughout the video, with lines such as "This is a first for me." and "This is a top 5 moment".
He turned the tragic situation of someone very recently taking their own life and spun it into an "experience", that he didn't hesitate to exploit for his own personal gain. It's very depressing viewing.
Abroad in Japan 100% agree.
100%
I agree Mr. Chris
He took the video down
his vlog records his life, this happened, he included it .. it was real .. death is natural ..
Just watched Aki’s video now and wrote pretty much the same thing but thank you for making this video. Every point you and Aki made were so important and needed to be heard. 早く出てけっとしか今は思えないね。なんだか辛いね。
I'm agreed the one youtuber I don't know who.(Don't kill me)
Logan Paul recently act on Suicide Forest Making us feel ashamed what peoples have become today.
Not only he and his friends making a fun of dead person,but when they are a actually laughing for doing that skit,Which is a god damn abomination that make my urge to eliminate him from this world.they are disrespect not only towards deads,But along with Japanese community and us from all around the world😠

A Past teacher of mine who has yearly trips to japan SAW Logan Paul in the airport and tweeted about it. Even tagged him and pointed out "here is a very disrespectful man "
wow! what a coincidence. Thats great that she told everyone about his gross ways.
The past teacher is a guy ... beatty Sensei
If I saw Logan Paul at an airport I would think like “I could perfectly live without seeing this monster”
I wouldn't classify him as a man at all.
Can I get the link about that?
I can feel him shaking in anger.
Hữu Hiệp Production same
I had my sound muted and I could still feel the anger from his voice
It's enough to go super saiyan
Tears when i see this
His “Logan, get the fuck out of my country” oh man I felt that
Logan: "In Japan, It's all about the RESPECT..."
Disobeyed the rules
Goes to a Prohibited place without permission
Made fun of people with his childish act
Films a dead body
Laughs at a dead body
SUCH HYPOCRICITY!
Kaiju Kirinuma Wait, does he actually laugh? That's just a whole new level of disrespect.
It could be hypocricity. On the other hand, he could also be saying it sarcastically or mockingly, which brings him down to a new low....... honestly can't believe it......
May I just say that it’s technically hypocrisy not hypocricity...
If I was you,I would ask him this:what "RESPECT" that you mean?
Is that even a word? Hypocrocity? lol
I find it infuriating that people are apologizing for making videos in response to Logan Paul more than Logan Paul is actually apologizing for his video.
jack newtron He shouldn't only get banned from the country but youtube wtf are they doing that could be so important instead of handling this situation?
He doesn't want to go to Japan anymore when he lives in the greatest country in the world where they have everything he needs. He is not in Japan anymore.
mtf on hormones logang or being sarcastic ? Lol
mtf on hormones are you for real or just being sarcastic
mtf on hormones sarcastic or not, America isn't the greatest country in the world...anymore
that last "get the fuck out of my country" felt so right
It'sa me MARIO i totally agree
Yep. Best thing.
I wasn't expecting it either! It had a powerful feeling to it.

its been 3 years and im still pissed about this drama.
Probably because this was more than just a simple drama, this was disrespect in it's purest form.
hm, right :( it really is all disgusting.
@@jenaissantegfriend I agree
I watched it recently when I got the news of my best friend has committed suicide.
I cant believe i used to like his content, like wtf i became his "fan" like a couple hours after he released the suicide forest video, i watched his older vlogs and then proceeded to watch the most recent one at the time which is the suicide forest video, whoo boi i dont know why i used to like him
Yes, but we in America don’t want him back either.

All dislikes are probably the little children trying to defend Logan.
And that's a fact
Nope.
Logan made 3,900 fake spam accounts to dislike this video.
Farkas Gabo Beetlegabko Cool.
They're youtube bots that dislike videos without alot of dislikes but alot of likes
Lmao
It was my 10 year old daughter who showed me this. She doesn't watch Logan Paul, but her friend loves him and sent her the video. She came running into my room with this look of both horror and anger saying " How do you get a video off youtube?" I was confused and she showed me even though she didn't have to, cause it was trending, but I saw it and the amount of anger and hate I felt towards this man just risen to a new level.
She asked me is it real and if that man was okay and why he was laughing. In our family mental illness is prominant I have Bipolar Disorder and the last strong depressive suicidal actions i've happened in early January of 2015 so seeing this brought out many other emotions. My daughter unfortunately has to deal with the reality of this. Her grandfather my step-dad suffers from a severe form of bipolar disorder and when he is up and great he's the best person, but this time it was bad and he tried to kill himself just last week on klonopin ( which is a benzo) this video was beyond horrific for her she gave me the question of " Is this how it is. Is this how you feel. Why would he do this and post this. I don't understand. Tell me why?"
The only answer I had for her was " What this man did does not reflect all humans. What he did was horrible. This place is a place where people go when they lose their battle and is their last time on earth. What he did was disrespect this place of sadness he also didn't do the right thing by leaving and saying " I can't do this." This man does not reflect others and I can assure you it won't affect me and your grandpa doesn't even know how to use a remote. Just stay away from him and if your friend decides that she can forgive this than i'll talk to her parents or to her whichever. You are both too young to experience and see these things. I want you to know I love you and i'm not going anywhere and to pray or bless this man who lost his battle that he is resting and pray for his family who is sad. But, don't let this hurt you. You did good coming to me. I love you."
That's all I could say. Even when she is on the kids platform or talking to her friends that doesn't mean links can't be shown. This man is truly disgusting and needs to go away and reflect on all he's done and the young minds he is showing this stuff too.
People who defend him. I know you are blinded by your love for your idol, but you must see that you don't do this. You don't film a dead body and you don't continue on filming. He may have shown shock, but that didn't stop him from filming. That to me shows a lot about him. It's about the view count not the content and he deserves a downfall. If you don't agree well... I don't apologize and you can continue living in your denial world. But, the rest of us will not tolerate it.
❤
Boy,u totally have my respect.You literally have shown more intelligent and mature than loan Paul did.im telling u that your sister is really lucky to have someone wise like u to explain her the reality of the situation.congrats👍
What a pity...😂💀💀
Cx. What's that supposed to mean?
Even 10 year olds are more respectful and mature than him
***Something Joey didn’t mention/I haven’t seen it in the comments about this***
I am a psychology major, and we learned about a phenomenon. It has a crude name, but it’s most commonly known as “copycat suicide”. When suicide is shown in popular social media (whether a TV show like “13 Reasons Why” or Logan’s vlog), it actually shows signs of triggering an influx of suicides.
It’s extremely insensitive of him to post that for a plethora of reasons, but he could’ve possibly triggered his viewers too.
Stephanie G. FINALLY! I was wondering when someone would bring this up
Holy moly I didn't realize so many people would see my comment, but I'm very happy everyone has! It's so so important to be aware that this kind of phenomenon exists
Stephanie G. Thx you of tall us this i never know why this a thing to a read this comment I did not know this can cost people to do this copy cat thing that show u there thing in this world so not be show on tv or RUclips or Netflix
Stephanie G. Honest question. Would copycat suicide can/would/ever be taken as mocking one's suicide or use someone's suicide to their own benefit only?
No, I wouldn't say that. I'll use the show "13 Reasons Why" as an example. In the series, they show the main character (the one who sadly committed suicide) planning and conducting the whole process of her suicide. People already suffering with depression, suicidal thoughts, etc. would see this and possibly take their own life in the same manner. Copycat is just a popularized "term" for this phenomenon, but others refer to it as a "contagion" too... I don't know; both seem like sort of wrong ways to present it. There are actually reports out there of real life people who had taken their life and left tapes (like the main character in the show did) for people. It's the popularization of things like "13 Reasons Why" or Logan Paul's video that could be triggering and encourage someone who has had thoughts of taking their own life to actually carry through and do it.
what an _excellent_ way to start the year
Edit: bros please come up with original comments, I am well aware that 2020 is utter shit in comparison.

@@RideOnTimePH logan pauls fanbase is kids
@@tedward3659 are u sure about that
Yes exactly
The first time I visited Tokyo, when I was 5, I saw a girl fall from a window and kill herself right before my eyes. Seeing something that tragic has always made anything in relation to suicide something that effects me on an extremely personal level. My father grew up in Japan, and his best friend in high school also ended her own life suddenly when she was only 18. I have also lost two family members to it. Suicide is absolutely nothing to take lightly, and I find Logan Paul both repulsive and disgusting. That person felt as though they had no other option than to end their own life. The fact that he made it a cheap ploy to get views enrages me on a whole other level.
Sakura Stardust biased view point. I've seen suicide first hand too and I still employ dark sarcastic humor. Felt sorry for the person, and I've dealt with suicide and depression personally. I just take an unbiased amoral standpoint
"dark humor" is different from using a dead body in a thumbnail on a youtube video and making jokes about it only minutes after. Also, the whole point is that his actions were unethical, you can't take an amoral standpoint on a moral issue and then call someone biased. And lastly, if this is bias against Logan's actions, what would be bias FOR Logan's actions/is bias invalid? Morals are literally a social code of conduct, if someone doesn't abide by them, maybe that's their prerogative and their right as a human being, but they should expect to get shit for it. If I were Logan (and if Logan actually had 2 brain cells to spare) I would have at least thought about the response I'd get for it and act accordingly; however you want to put it, Logan is absolutely retarded.
It certainly is biased, but my point is that you can't take the social constructs out of it. Emotions are a basic part of human nature. Morals exist because as humans we can experience these emotions on both an individual basis and a group basis, ex. the personal thoughts going through one's head after a family member dies versus the Boston Strong movement and similar ones (that specifically comes to mind because I'm from the Boston area, there's many more like it), and most humans understand that there are certain ways to act to avoid tampering with other people's emotions. Morals literally exist because we know that, if somebody shows a dead guy on youtube, put mildly it will hurt someone's feelings, and we wouldn't want our feelings hurt in the same way. To be honest I'm not mad about showing the dead body on youtube, it's mainly about the fact that it was used in his thumbnail and it was presumably not even an hour after he saw the dead body that he started making jokes about it. That said, I still do think that showing the body on youtube was disrespectful to that person and their family. These are just my thoughts, however, and therefore still subjective and biased.
Also, side note, I respect the fact that we could have a civilized debate about this instead of just going back and forth saying dumb shit, doesn't happen a lot on youtube.
Snakez29 True, I'm glad about that too. Earlier today I was having a debate with myself about taking the social constructs out of things and how everything could be potentially subjective, and not have any order and just be nothing but chaos and uncertainty. Then I reminded myself about how us humans have been able to bring order and balance to alot of things through our subjectiveness as well as through objective means too. We find comfort in familiarity and order and we keep it that way so things don't get out of hand. I just like to take views that push the envelope sometimes lol. You're right on this one, plus emotions stem from chemical reactions in the brain, morals and ethics stem from those emotions and the logic we have formed through the years, so while something may be subjective it doesn't necessarily make it wrong. :)
I appreciate you for that lmao that's an interesting viewpoint to have. If he hadn't joked about it after I would probably have been less biased myself, it just really gets to me. I'm glad we could have this conversation, really made me think about shit
When I saw Logan's video I actually cried - it was just so disturbing. He was literally SCANNING HIM with his camera and I just thought "oh my lord that was a person, who was so alone, and ended their life to end their suffering. AND NOW THEY ARE BEING BROADCAST TO MILLIONS OF PPL?!" I saw it as an invasion of the victim's privacy....
Demon Killer if you show a dead body you want would you do, laugh?
There's somethings that make me think:actually,he don't need to do his "crap" for getting a lots of attention,he don't need to film a dead body and laughed it for "suicide awareness and suicide prevention",and make the sorry video if he know that was completely wrong from the beginning.
Kayleigh Griva imagine this: a group of tourists visit a circus and they came across a person who was abused and felt depressed, sad and alone. He tried begging for help but never came. The group of tourists just proceeded to snap pictures at the person and starts laughing at the person making the person even more alone than ever. The tourists are literally Logan Paul in the Aokigahara Forest video.
Me too...
Complete exploitation of a tortured soul! ☹️😞
I don't know who is worse Logan Paul or his diehard fanbase that thinks laughing at a dead body and showing disrespect is perfectly fine since the person doing it is their idol: Logan Paul.
Fanbases are inherently retarded.
Bibimbapski both Logan and his disgusting fan base are retarted they both are disrespectful
Bobby Hill Now that's just cancer. I can't tell if you're serious or not.
Imani Imvu I think he's being sarcastic (because of the dabs). But that's the scary thing about his fanbase... you think what they are saying is so ridiculous they had to be sarcastic, but they're not
Bobby Hill yeah i hope you're just trolling rn...
Man, I feel this.
Over the years, I've seen a ton of travel vlogs that have people climbing around on, sitting down on, and running and jumping on the Holocaust memorial in Berlin.
To me, that is one of the most disrespectful things a person could possibly do; those rocks represent hundreds of thousands of innocent people who were murdered horribly.
Germans take this history, and the inherited guilt that comes with it, very seriously. It's personal to us, and we want to keep the memory of these crimes alive to keep history from ever repeating itself.
The memorial is a solemn and sad place, not some jungle gym for uneducated tourists to climb around on and make asses of themselves.
It's truly unbelievable to me how some people seem completely unable to do even the tiniest amount of research before visiting a place, just assuming that they can do whatever they want.
I feel sad when I see young people saying that "past is past, we don't care about it anymore"
Bluestar yeah, the past is something we need to remember to learn from. Not to forget about it and just use it as a f*cking jungle gym.

Its just 1 percent of his power
For a good reason though
You were scared... my name is Logan how you think I felt
@@kinglylogan1210 I- I bestow a protector above you because holy shit. If my name was Logan, and Joey was addressing this to a “Logan” i would have died on the spot.
Yeah, because I'm going to get scared of some random guy on the internet.
Even leaving your chopsticks upright in a bowl of rice is disrespectful to the dead, why the hell would he think filming a dead man who probably was suffering a good idea!? It's downright disgusting.
The forest is called "the suicide forest". He was told what happen's there.What are the odd's of finding a dead body.Just sick mindless stupidity.
Honestly i never knew about the chopstick thing. But on a real sidenote yea this just goes to show you how immature Logan Paul really is. Even my little brother who is in 8th grade wouldn’t have done something like that. Seriously messed up.
Sorry but can anyone explain me what was so bad about that vlog
FalseShepherd how is it "messed up"
Andy Voigt Logan Paul basically goes to the Suicide Forest and films a dead body vlogs about it and Uses the Body as a Thumbnail for his RUclips video. He also throws in some giggles here and there.
i feel like this incident is gonna make going to visit Japan as a foreigner much harder
Of course it will. Let us hope not.
TheHoboKing it is
When it does,We are going to riot at front of his home.
Infinitely harder. Honestly... if this were old school Japanese culture. We would have to bring the severed heads of Logan and all his bros to the Japanese government just to be allowed passage back into the country. Actually scratch that. Logan and his buddies would have already had their heads chopped off and sent back to the States with a letter pretty much declaring our permanent banning from their country.
TheHoboKing so much harder
No need to apologise, my lad. You're involved with the subject and passionate about it. And if people don't like you talking about it, they can watch something else.

Grimalkin Felidae or they can bitch about it, they are free to choose
I was crying when I saw this because my friend committed suicide. When she did, I went to that forest with a noose and a few ropes because I. Was. Done. But then someone walked up to me and said, "please do not commit suicide, if you are struggling you can talk or call your local therapist or talk to someone you can trust that might help you" it took me a second but I didnt. Even if someone dies you can't give up just because your sad. I get it but it's not the way to go. I near ended my life because I was depressed. All lives matter and if you struggling talk to someone.
*suicide is nothing to joke about, if you are deppresed, please DO NOT commit suicide and joke about suicide many people have ended their lives.*
I hope you are okay now and has found peace. I've been there, I'm struggling just as well... but all I hope is somewhere along the line we all see that light we needed.

MujoTsuki YT even if that way to peace was wrong, he shouldn't have done that
@@uzi_spaz379 Yes it was wrong because it's extremely disrespectful to the person that killed themselves and anybody who killed themselves or tried to. Logan could have just turned his camera off for a few minutes, not film the body and leaving the body alone in peace instead of filming it and laughing at it. So you really think that this is not disrespectul and offensive?
@@uzi_spaz379 Judging from the horrible things he still does even after the suicide forest incident, I highly doubted he learned anything. The apology video was probably a ploy to get more sympathy points.
@@uzi_spaz379 it's really easy to say "omg giys I'm so sorry and I regret everything I've done"
We're on RUclips lots of people do that for damage control and I wouldn't doubt if logan did that as well.
It was his choice to film it.
After he filmed it and edited it he had time to reconsider and find this wrong after he got time to think about it.
But still did none of that and kept the video.
If he actually did find what he did wrong he wouldn't have even done it in the first place as he probably had plenty of time to reconsider his actions but yet did it AFTER he gets hate for it.
Ask yourself is he being genuine or is he just trying to save skin.
@@uzi_spaz379 I agree with all the previous comments 110% but wanted to add one thing, imagine someone who found a dead body looked at it and laughed say oh hahaha your life so sad you had to kill yourself hahaha. And that basically what Logan Paul did he could have shown respect and even for a second turned his camera off even if he did film it he could said a message afterwards saying suicide is not and or never the answer, but instead he filmed it took a close up and said "like if you feel sad" honestly how sad and disrespectful does that sound, if you don't think so than, i am concerned for you and the life you will live
Anyone who has been to Aokigahara knows there are signs everywhere IN ENGLISH that say you are NOT to leave the path and that access is restricted. You SAW him step over the barrier rope and he even said, "We're leaving the path now.." I could understand that bcuz he and his mates are immature that they may have initially thought that entering the forest is cool - like visiting a haunted house or something, as I know from experience that people are skeptical as to whether people actually do go to the forest to commit suicide (thinking that maybe it's a marketing ploy to get tourists to visit the area), but it comes back to this: He filmed, and even did close ups, of a human being who was so desperately unhappy that he decided to commit suicide. Then he and his friends laughed about it. TO ALL THOSE WHO FOLLOW OR DEFEND LOGAN, HIS BROTHER AND FRIENDS: GET THE POINT - LOGAN DID NOT HAVE TO UPLOAD THE FOOTAGE, PERIOD. And it wasn't just HIS reaction that made me sick, but THE WHOLE GROUP SHOULD BE ASHAMED OF THEMSELVES!!! Trivialising human suffering for financial gain and/or fame is...quite honestly all I can think of to describe it is as SCUM. And the fact that the majority of his audience are kids...that just puts his disgraceful disregard for the impact of his actions at a low reserved only for the worst of our society!! RUclips needs to BAN both of the PAULs AND their two friends shown in the video. And Logan needs to take a bloody good hard look at himself and hopefully decide he's going to grow up and not act like a POS for the 15Mil kids who follow him, bcuz at the end of the day he's a role model, and he needs to take responsibility for his actions. If he was REALLY SORRY he would remove his CHANNEL, not just the video (which has subsequently been re-posted by others). His parents must be so very, very, very disappointed in him. I don't know how anyone could show their face after doing something like this - it's unbelievable.
J Lastname TL;DR
J Lastname calling someone who's following the path of a maverick immature, just shows how you like to misinterpreted things. That's being biased and ignorant
J Lastname I bet the pauler’s parents are too busy defending Logan right now and talking smack about everyone that’s against them right now.
And he just did a movie with RUclips Red so I doubt they gonna do anything. Even with the amount of annoyance he did on set, the thinning directors still dealt with it bc Logan knew we was the star of the movie and that they wouldn’t fire him. It’s just the amount of times he’s taken advantage of situations is so sickening, he knowingly goes overboard bc he does it for the views. Like dude you got your American dream, calm down and start moving on and evolve from the vlog life.

Vampire Luke cause it's biased and it's from a restricting overly moral point of view
InnoatalHydra309 how is it biased? And how can you be "overly moral" about this? There's no non-moral stance here.
A Highly Sophisticated Gentleman it's biased if someone looks at it from just one point of view and follows the bandwagon condemning the action. There are many non-moral standpoints on this right now.
Thing is, it's not overly biased if a lot of people have spoken about this in a civilized, educated, and respectful manner. It's not hard to understand why they feel and think this way either if you've seen both sides like others did.
feteFOX of course it's clear to see why they feel that way, but I have to disagree on the part that it isn't overly biased because tons of people take that stance on it. It doesn't matter how many people agree on or take a certain stance if that stance is biased in and of itself. Case in point alot of people are thinking emotionally on the subject at hand right now
This isn't a case of cultural etiquette, it's a case of human decency.
exactly, this would not be acceptable in any culture
Logan should put that video down.He acted in a way that is personally offensive to me.He also got everyone offended.Basically Fuck Logan and his stupid shit.He should maybe get his mind checked.
fortunately he has pulled the video down, but that doesn't excuse his actions, he's gonna need something special to get my forgiveness, suicide is not a joke, disrespecting another culture is not a joke and under no circumstance should either of these EVER be used to gain media popularity
That ending was the coolest shit I’ve ever seen. Well said.

@@reddead0514 I almost want to make that my new ringtone. It is pure truth, a truth that is like music to my ears. It is probably the strongest statement Joey has ever made.
Ive heard better closing statements but it seems his video is almost 0% scripted and just talking on the spot. Anyone could say gtfo but he stands out for the confidence to say it direct in a public video.
The fact that 3K people dislike this scares me...
Logans original video got around 600000 likes before it got taken down. Now that's more scary.
Although completely unrelated, Trump’s comments regarding Charlottesville are also scary. At least he hasn’t commented about Logan, but then again, he probably doesn’t give a fuck.

Scientia I’d rather be a weeb than a Loganger or Jake Pauler at this point to be honest
The day before Logan posted his video, my friend attempted suicide by swallowing a handful of pills. She's in the hospital right now as I type this. The day I saw the video, I physically raged. I nearly destroyed my bedroom because of how *disrespectful* it was. To that person. To that person's family and friends. To everybody who knew a person that committed suicide. To everybody in Japan. And I'm so, *so* happy to know that people like Joey, Aki, Terry, and so many more people are addressing this. Thank you to all the RUclipsrs who are addressing this, who aren't ignoring it, who are taking a stand. I appreciate you so much that words can't even explain. And thank you to all the viewers who share or like videos like this, making this matter known and how disrespectful it is.

Lord Xeon exactly

its sad but this is what happening now get all sort of craziness
This is why if I ever start videos, they won't be on RUclips. The reason why RUclips hasn't done anything us because the Paul brothers are stupidly popular and make them money.
I'm one of the few who never got to see the video, due to the fact that he took it down after receiving backlash.
Looking at it from an objective standpoint, he was either completely oblivious to the consequences of his actions or he deliberately did that to gain attention.
Some RUclipsrs are actually happy that he did that, just so they can make a video, making a profit off of speaking about something trending.
What he did was very unintelligent on his part and it's very ignorant for his cult that's trying to defend him on his actions, calling US the "hAtErS" while in reality, he messed up big time, and he needs to own up for his actions.
Just Some Guy without a Mustache illumati and double standard 2 the recuse lol just is y I'm glad youtube fuk everybody over in the ass money wise

He also realised his mistake after seeing the body by saying "why did the jokes become have to become real" and quickly tries to "joke away his true feelings" and his friend was just smiling.

Don’t be sorry. It’s a shame that the first video of the year is about something negative, but something needed to be said. I can only hope that RUclips sees this reaction and takes matters into their own hands.

Still shocked and upset the video ever happened. That video was one of my first few interactions with the topic of suicide. I was a 9-11 year old with a crap iPad. I remember trying to defend him because I didn’t understand the weight of it. Now I do because I’m now a survivor of suicide attempts and realize the utter disrespect.
My little sister commited suicide not in the suicide forest but she jumping off our apartment building into the road below it happened when I was young but it traumatised me. She was epileptic and couldn't take the pain anymore. She was my little sister and I failed to protect her... I failed her. Everyday it eats away at me. It's not hard to realise you need to use respect. We were both adopted into japanese families by loving parents. We grew up in Japan. And when she passed people were respectful. To see him do that made me sick. That was messed up. Suicide is not some thing you use to get attention. When Kazune died I wanted nothing more but to disappear. I'm not asking for pity I'm not asking for comfort. I'm asking for sick freaks like him to stay out of our country... I may not have japanese blood but i was raised there! We lived there we loved the country! Japan saved me from my abusive birth parents. I'm proud to have been raised there and to be considered one of them. So get out of our country before I kick you out.
Really sorry you had to go through that.

As a japanese, this just makes me fking sad how ppl go to aokigahara just for “fun and giggles”. Japanese ppl dont travel other countries just to disrespect other countries, we try so hard to be polite and respect everyone at all times because we want the respect we deserve. I just dont understand how someone, an adult who can decide for himself, can do this type of stuff.
I want to go there one day, not for fun, but to pay my respects and see a (in the words of TAM himself) really pretty forest.
But i totally understand if the Japanese government bans foreigners from going in there after this.
I'm caucasian and seeing this upsets me; Logan basically disregarded someone who has been deceased. Thought it's not only him, I saw people in my freshmen year record fights on the school premises and were excited when someone, commonly a girl, hit another person, also a girl. I could not understand the pleasure of hurting someone and disrespecting them for fun.
I really want to go to Japan But not the forest because I'm scared I'm sorry I'm a pussy But I heard Japan is A cool and clean Country And ANIMEEEE
Meerai 佐藤 They just don't know when to be respectful and when to joke and i wish i could go to japan and pay my respects to all of the people that passed away for their own reason.

Aki Haru Yes same, its fucking disgusting what he did ,wtf...Also hi Fellow Belgian friend
You don't have to be japanese to respect japan 😂
Not to mention that body was someone's child, maybe sibling. It's not just disrespectful to Japan but immoral to a whole other level.
It's not immoral from an amoral point of view! :D
Lol true but tbh there'd be none or barely any morality in an amoral perspective
Tony Ghale let's push the envelope a little bit. What if people could be productive and do good without having morals?
InnoatalHydra309 Well that doesn't really make sense does it 😂 To be a genuinely good person you need to have good morality, sometimes people do "good" for their own selfish reasons
Imo, the best way to proceeded with the whole thing would be to just make a video, explaining, "Hey, so I won't be posting my original vlog because we found a dead body..."
But nope. He recorded it and made it a joke
I stayed the night with a friend a couple of days ago and she loves Logan and Jake. And she asked me why I didn’t like them and that they were good people. I looked at her and said “ they are awful people, they are disrespectful and need to grow up.” And she said whatever and continued to talk about them. This proves and rests my case.

He even does this today, with the whole "Pokemon expert" situation and that crypto currency.
@@sdHansy he changed by not changing, he basically stopped acting like this hype cringey ass dude on camera and just started being himself, is he perfect? hell fking now, but I do appreciate him even considering it cuz it's rare af these days to see that...
This is expectedly and legitimately the reason why the Paul Brothers are a abomination to RUclips.
First day of 2018 already put to shit.
A Guy Whomst Like Memes they are an abomination to our generation
Well that and that he threatened a female former viner. This is one of the first time that people are seeing that while Jake is bad, Logan is that type of malignant person that should have never been famous.
We need a Death Note soo that we can end this bs....
logan did not upload that in 2018
NARUTO - No just knowing about this NOW just ruin it.
What’s worse you can see his friends with giant smiles after finding the body. Even he’s laughing
Lilian LeDuc + Logan's 1st apology : "I'm surrounded by *good* people."
_Yeah sure thing Logan..._ *smh*
Lilian LeDuc doki doki made it funny for me
What makes me really upset is that vloggers EDIT their videos. He watched that back and edited it and STILL thought it was okay to keep all the little jokes in and the part where discovered the tragic scene. He could have easily edited it out and had a sit-down video talking about the subject matter and how you are not alone. Not mock it. Why do we make stupid people so famous...
PeachTora that’s what I was thinking.
They dont edit there own video your point is still right tho
I don't think he edits his own videos, and he is really busy with everything he does. I'm thinking he sent it his editor as usual, with the normal wealth of footage. And he probably maybe told him/her to include certain big things, maybe said include the body, but blur the face or something. And then *poof*, it's gone until it's edited and sent back to him to post on his channel. I doubt he really had a lot of time to think about it. Also realize that Logan is probably someone that is very, very happy in life, and to someone like that suicide wasn't really something someone thinks about, and to him maybe seeing the actual body really changed his thoughts on it and he thought maybe it would do the same to some people watching it. What he did was wrong, but he didn't edit his own vid atleast imo and didn't think about it too much.
Yeah that’s the thing that completely gets me I don’t understand how you could sit there and watch the footage back and yet you still upload it so this tells me that he actually has no remorse for what he’s actually done
Hey I don’t agree with troompa loompa on everything but he has done some good stuff
As a person who has attempted to commit suicide 3 times it disgusts me beyond a doubt that he did that. It's so fucking disgusting that Logan Paul did that.
Please leave it at 3 attempts never attempt a 4th. Please live
@@LabLab3029 🥺🥺🥺😭
@@LabLab3029 this means a lot to me because I've been recently having a depressive episode and was ready to relapse and cut but this comment popped up and I actually smiled for the first time in days. So thank you.
Np man i hope you continue to live the best life possible 😀
@@LabLab3029 thank you again. I hope you're doing well also 💚💚
So I have Depression and I'm a psychology student in college. I think suicide is a huge deal and shouldn't be taken lightly at all. If Logan ever knew what those thoughts were like, that melancholy feeling that you're not good enough for this world, then he would have respected the body more too, just like he should have understand the cultural differences. I'm also a Muslim and I've seen my fair share of ignorant tourists whenever I was in Jordan visiting family. They'd ask questions straight out "hey are you bald under that scarf?"
I'm a Law student and yes suicide is a serious case scenario, if you stumble upon a dead body calling the authorities would be the first thing to do. Logan's action was disgusting, disrespectful and sick in the head. Filming a dead person and post onto the internet for views, is a serious offence.
I hope you get better with your depression and what logan paul did was unforgivable.
Completely tone deaf, rethink what you say before you say it.
How unpleasant...
I'm sorry, I know this is serious just wanna lighten the mood, I hope you can live properly with your depression.
Skygazer she's not bald because Muslim/Islam women covering their parts of the body like example a hijab is Islam religion culture not to expose some of the body parts.
To be honest , I'm more scared on what will happen to the future. Seeing how people react to this controversy, I can say that there are some who lacks emphaty and respect. Its just sickening to see people saying, "Why respect someone who doesn't respect himself" or "Goodjob gaining views since you used Logan as clickbait to" I mean, people what the heck is wrong with you?!
Neo Virz
I think it's not ok to celebrate a depressed person's death all across the globe. To normal people, at least.
Kitty Standard
They weren't really celebrating it just showing it.
[This is a very, very long comment if you're going to read it]
Logan Paul. To be honest, I'm not shocked by this. Both Pauls are already known for going around and being disrespectful to pretty much everyone who isn't American or male, or a bro. Or into their stupid way of life where they pull dabbing and god only knows what else out to get views on a platform that should not be tolerant of this behaviour.
What I want to see is this getting his contracts terminated. Because actually, if he isn't punished for this, it'll prove RUclips has double standards for Vloggers vs. Gaming RUclipsrs given what happened with Pewdiepie for what was a far less disrespectful video. I'm glad to see this has managed to get a far more hideous backlash as what he has done is terrible.
No amount of quote-on-quote 'like if you feel sad' can subtract from the fact that what Logan has done is fucking disgusting. How abhorrent to film a dead body. How fucking stupid do you have to be? Firstly. That should be a straight up termination, not a community guidelines strike, he's just walked up to someone who is someone's son, maybe someone's brother, or uncle, or father, and filmed them for views on a platform because he's always trying to get in on the RUclips algorithm favouring him and his blatantly stupid videos. Apparently RUclips likes to cash in on how fucking stupid and uneducated some people are.
Secondly. His entire Japan series should be removed and each one on its own should be a community guidelines strike. The cultural appropriation, the blatant racism, the jokes that would get most people demonetized in a flash and in some cases have their channels terminated for even doing once in a video? Why is he not being punished?! RUclips *has* to do something.
Thirdly. He actually should be punished by law as it was found in that video that he was in an area he wasn't supposed to be in. At all. As in, restricted area of the forest. Somewhere he should never have been in, in the first instance.
This disrespect is why people like him should have bans on going to other countries. I will not be shocked if he's never allowed back. He shouldn't even be allowed to stay in the country after that. What a way to start 2018, great job Logan you're a fucking idiot. Hope this destroys his channel. It's not like he can even say it was an accident. He edited the fucking video, he had time to realise that what he was doing was so absurdly disrespectful and obscene. But no, all he can think is "I'll never get in trouble with RUclips. I'll get more views if I show an actual dead body on RUclips, I'll get more subs, I'll get more of that RUclips money because they'll never demonetize me, I'm Logan Paul they'd never do that" - I just so hope he gets kicked down so hard by RUclips he learns to put his goddamn camera away.
Sorry for the rant to anyone who's still reading at this point but it's not like I can make a video to get this point out, unlike Joey and everyone else who's been angered by this, I don't have a camera or the equipment to sit down and talk to an audience. And we call Weeaboos stupid, uncultured and uneducated... really we should be saying this about channels like Logan and Jake's who shouldn't be allowed to travel.
ReanikMusicOfficial read it all and what you said really hit the mark, couldn't have said it better. I love the culture of Japan and as a human being, should always respect others. Whenever somebody is having suicidal thoughts like this or just to see somebody sad and depressed, as a human being we need to reach out to them and try to have them shed a smile. Be that small light in their life even if it's just a little.
BethariaNoor might honestly be an idea to petition them to push for punishment
Someone needs to start a petition now
Andrew Franklin anyone got change.org? Pretty much the only platform that ever seems to actually get attention for this sort of thing.
Joshie Pie thank you very much honestly. I'm actually surprised that the comment hasn't been slated for me basically tearing into one of the biggest RUclipsrs on the platform.
Suicide is a real problem, particularly in Japan. Anyone who knows someone who died in that way understands why this is wrong, but you don’t have to have known someone personally who died that way in order to understand why you don’t exploit the death of an individual for likes and views. I will never forgive Logan Paul for this, no matter how many years pass by, I recognize he is a mentally unstable individual, but he went too far for me personally to ever forgive him.
I don't think joey was harsh enough, as someone who suffers with unbelievably bad anxiety (to the point where I get frequent anxiety attacks), clinical depression (which I've had for years), stress and suicidal thoughts I am upset and disappointed. I love japan, I am Japanese. It's disgusting how he pranced around Japan disrespecting all of the culture. It's even worse how he made fun of serious issues! Seeing the body of someone who has committed suicide really affects people like me, people who suffer with depression, anxiety and suicidal thoughts, I broke down when I saw it and I won't be okay for awhile... Hate is a strong word, but it doesn't even begin to explain how I feel about Logan Paul and what he has done.
TosutoKukki. I feel physically sick and almost cried when i saw it i just have no words for these type of assholes
TosutoKukki i hope you'll feel better soon, best of wishes to you
No one gives a fu*k about your self-diagnosed depression , lookin' for attention . What happened, your mom didnt buy u the latest iphone XD?
Thanks
Then... Why would you watch it?
Not trying to justify him posting the video in the first place, if you're sensitive to seeing suicide why would you got out of you're way to watch it (and assuming you watched the mostly uncensored version)???
I'm so pissed off that somebody who has such a big influence actually did something so repulsive. Visiting the forest with respect and knowledge is one thing. Finding a body and TURNING OFF THE CAMERA OUT OF *RESPECT AND COMMON SENSE* is one thing that can be forgiven by many people. But going to the forest without any knowledge or respect and finding a body, getting close up, and simply blurring the face is unforgivable.
The simple fact somebody was shown is disgraceful and disgusting. USING THAT PERSON TO GET VIEWS is absolutely inhumane and wrong on every possible level.
You can still watch Logan all you want, but please remember that he has done something absolutely unforgivable.
no
SomeRandomPerson Person he didnt fuckin know
Caleb Griner It's basic human decency, and cultural etiquettes can be looked up in less than a minute. It was plain ignorance and disrespect
That's not a good excuse; just because "he didn't know", doesn't make it any less excusable. If he had just did a quick search on Japanese etiquette and rules concerning filming in Aokigahara, he could have avoided all of this controversy. Even then, common sense would dictate that you shouldn't just film a dead body; and if he did by accident, delete the footage, cut it out, or even black it out for crying out loud.
if he didn't know that you need to respect the dead, especially the RECENT dead regardless of what country or culture then he is a fucking imbecile who doesn't even deserve to be as big as he is now.
I just hope he doesn't fucking disrespect anyone or anything else in Japan, because he not only makes foreigners look bad but he could be putting his own life at risk doing that. Even though I don't like him I don't think his own stupidity should get him or anyone harmed.
Although he does deserve to be kicked out of Japan.
Imagine being the person who just got news that a family member committed suicide.
And that person was laughed at and joked about in a video with over 20,000,000 views.

What do you mean “L O L”?
Soraya Rivers damn 😕
Logan copes with humor...that's not unheard of.
Tiberiu Zamfirescu the family would have never known if he didn't...honestly ppl quick to scrutinize every thing and blow shit out of proportion. The world is too fucking sensitive. He found a dead body...so what? Y'all act like he exploited the body. Dude never seen a dead body before and he took it a lot better than most others who would be losing their shit. Ppl are just mad his coping wasn't *THE NORM* and want to assume the worst and that he was laughing at the body. I understand how Logan wanted to bring awareness to this but the execution wasn't sound. TBH that was his only mistake.
If he comes to Australia and starts being disrespectful to our aborigines I swear to fluffing god >:[
(Yes I am Australian
'If he came here and pulled any of that shit, he wouldn't seen again'
According my Dad's friend who happens to be an elder. She was BEYOND pissed and disgusted when I showed her the thumbnail and title. I didn't show her cause that's going to far. I just vaguely described it
I’m Australian as well and if that happened I would be incredibly disgusted to be honest, since most of my friends are Aboriginals or have lots of people in contact with them that are aboriginals.
I really wish that this didn’t happen in Japan it’s really sad, and I feel even worse for the family of the person who was killed, who must be so sad.
If he comes to Finland and disrespects the sami or romani in any way I'm sure to yeet him into the underworld.
The irony of you saying 'our aborigines', we don't forget how you 'Australians' have treated them.
@@kingaskeladd5052 yeah I completely agree
hey man
while you think this isn't a good video to start out 2018, i think it's a wonderful one.
you're putting a strong message of respect out there. one so strong that i can only hope that it's one that impacts people and that they follow this strong example your setting. the way your voice wavers makes this video so emotional, so genuine, and i think it's one of the best ones talking about this situation as a whole, even talking about the other videos he's put out about japan. you've always been one of the few youtubers i look up to and have an insane amount of respect for and this just cements my admiration and support for you. thank you for being strong and speaking about this topic. i appreciate it. not many people take things with the level of seriousness and with as critical of an eye as you do and it needed to be presented this way, with all of the facts laid out. so a job well done, joey.
i'm proud.

3 years later and this still pisses me off. What makes me more livid than anything is that he got off with just a slap on the wrist. The backlash he received ultimately amounted to nothing. He didn't suffer any consequences. That POS is more rich and famous than ever!! Ughhhh
True, I hate how he walked away with basically no consequence. Him and his brother are going the biggest pieces of shit on this platform
He's a disrespectful person. He's gone to Japan and all he is doing is disrespecting thier culture. He makes me sick. When you go to a country you embrace their culture. He's so wrong and this vlog at the suicide forest tops it off. He's giving Americans a bad name.

“But guys, he apologized!” -Logan Paul Fan
Using that same logic, if the people responsible for 9/11 suddenly stepped up and apologized, we should instantly forgive them. Because apologies fix everything! This isn’t two dollars you borrowed from your friend and just never gave back, it’s a dead person that you’ve disrespected and you can’t just apologize for that.
Honestly, he should at least get as much shit as PewDiePie got when the whole nazi thing happened...
Oda Gullhav trye
Apologies do not undo what has already happened.
Please spread this message everywhere for the dumbass fans to see
Are you seriously equating killing hundreds of people with laughing at a dead body? Get some perspective, man.
The "Logan, get the fuck out of my country" at the end of the video, I really felt it.
Heck, you don’t even have to be educated to know not to do something as disrespectful and disgusting as that. It takes the bare minimum moral consciousness and decency not to do something as abhorrent as that. And yet, he doesn’t even have that. The lowest of the low.
34RiverStone are you implying that logan paul had basic human decency? Ha, what a joke!
a kid in my class today said that it wasnt bad and he did nothing wrong and i was so mad
What Logan did was basically like going to a 9/11 memorial and make some lame jokes about plane crashes
Andrea Fontanelli More like watching the videos of the attack at the 9/11 memorial and laughing about it
It’s like going to the memorial and laughing and joking about 9/11
Yeah, pretty much
No man, It's like filming 9/11, vlogging and reacting to the planes crashing into the tower, laughing about it, than making the thumbnail a picture of 9/11 and uploading it.
I-It's not like I like you or anything B-b-baka
Yours is more accurate because didn't they say the body seemed recent?
Are you serious? How disrespectful can you be? People like him make it hard for nice people to travel because they get lumped into groups like him.
Kayla Gaines they think they can get away with this shit
This video is one of the videos that deserves literally deserves no dislikes, cause Joey is spitting straight facts.
But some bitchy fanboys an fangirls couldn't help themselves
True
I can see it... the 10 year olds logan paul fans are gonna dislike this vid
Gabriel Tannawa lol thats tru
*slowly walks past*
grab some armor, it's going to be a long battle
England is mah city
Gabriel Tannawa yep
Majority of his subs are from america for sure and yes most is 10 years old..i feel bad for them for being impresionable at Lp 😂
To quote Gaijin Goomba: "You just made our jobs so much more difficult"
That final part was beyond powerful. You could feel how genuine it is and I’m still disgusted with Logan’s actions. Despite how many years ago this was it will always be one of the most disrespectful and revolting things he could have ever done
The disgusting thing, is that he even edited the video, and maybe for an hour, but he never thought that was wrong. He was complete aware that he was using a body while editing and uploading the video, but don’t care. I never thought someone would be so disgusting and it makes me sick.
such a great point at what stage did it cross Logan's mind that maybe this is too f**king far you would think a man with such a large audience of young children would know when things are crossing the line or are child-friendly. yes, I get that we make mistakes but no one thinks it's a good idea to go to a suicide forest and then show a dead body (*might I add some of the kids watching his videos might not even know what suicide means) so disrespectful and disgusting.
Imogen Kane totally agree
my biggest fear is that if we continue to just forgive and put up with this it's going to become ok to post videos of dead bodies violate people personal lives
Millaray Gonzalez yet annoying ass fucking kids and preteens love him fuck Logan Paul he's fucking disgusting makes me sick
EXACTLY....he's a fucking grown man, he was the one editing the damn video! So in his opinion, what he posted was not wrong and that's what disgusts me. It's exactly like the pepsi commercial case with Kendall. She was aware of what she signed up for, but still did it anyways and got so much backlash for it lol karmas a bitch
One word to describe this video? Amen.
Yuki and Marie Animations One word for you, weeb.

Septor 😂 I love this comment it’s hilarious
First vid of the year? Didn’t even know that he posted a vid like that to be honest, going to Japan to travel and just disrespect their society? By joking around and doing some disrespectful s***.
Woah, Logan just ruined my first day of the year, I feel disgusted by him. Agree with Joey 100%
Edit: Woah please chill, not starting a fight here. Im just upset about how Logan would do such a thing- he’s really a person that can really change other people by inspiring them. But this such thing just make me sick
. Videoing a dead body and saying “put a like if you feel sad”. (Something like that). And yes I do know that he didn’t know the rules nor warning, but he should’ve been smart enough that its illegal to show it on camera and just put in on social media...
질리안 Same. I had no idea this controversy was a thing until today.
2018 is supposed to be full of hope and we get this... Congratulations Logan. You’re an idiot

질리안 youre not the only one yknow. What a b******.
Why does it matter that he's "disrespecting" a culture? This is coming from a Japanese person by the way.....
I was a fan of him...and I had notifications on. So I immediately clicked on the video when I got it. Before it got demonitized I had seen it...I was so shook when he suddenly filmed the body...I don't even wanna think about it...
Are u cured now?
@@barbaradegrado5729 yes thats why he said he WAS a fan
Ironically, Logan Paul’s video proved why people commit suicide to begin with. He feeds a culture and brand that is fueled by pure trolling and hopelessness. That dude has ZERO respect, compassion or empathy for human beings in general. And I agree with you on RUclips as well. They are complicit. Shame on them as well. If I was surrounded by Logan Pauls’, I’d want to bounce from this world too.
Fortunately, I am surrounded by loving caring people. You should try it sometime.
DONUT815 why don't you do it first then
I agree with you. I cannot stress enough how disrespectful it is to anyone. You don’t film a dead body, period, out of respect for the person and their family. I recently loss my grandparents in 2017 and the funeral service was bombarded with cameras everywhere, filming and taking pictures of not only my grief and my family’s grief, but of my grandparents as well. I’m still pissed off at the fact that my distant relatives filmed them during the casket opening service, feeling their bodies on film for whatever stupid reason, making snide comments, and finally, uploading it onto RUclips. Like who the fuck does that? I didn’t find out about it until my aunt found the video online. She, too, was obviously upset. And not only that, the funeral service turned into a joke for some Cambodian political troupe to use my grandparent’s death to push their agenda. My cousins and I didn’t have a chance to personally talk to our grandparents before cremation due to our privacy being invaded. So I think I have quite an understanding of the situation here. I don’t have much knowledge on Japanese cultural etiquette but even someone with a basic moral compass (should) know that what Logan did was disrespectful and idiotic. Thank you for addressing this.
The fact that people in the comments are actually defending him is really sickening. Respect for the dead (especially those who have committed suicide) should come naturally, and people have every right to be offended by what Logan has done. I seriously hope he's stopped soon because it's clear that controversy after controversy, he doesn't learn his lesson.
Other than that, well said Joey.
Sophie Edwards It's just his brain dead fanbase, they are the Lowest of scum
Shadowtechnik horny tween girls and tween boys that wanna be like him. It's sad really.
"I am suicidal." get away from society you freak.
"I suicided, i need respect."
If someday i suicide. I dont need respect.
Sophie Edwards And how is showing a dead body offensive again?
Fhfjnf Dhjdhd It's disrespectful to that persons memory and their family. A man comitted suicide because he felt like life wasn't worth living. He needed help but didn't get it and now he's getting mocked and used as clickbait? I really don't feel like I have to explain why that's disgusting and wrong.
Me as a half Japanese person i know how much we respect the dead but i was and still am truely disgusted about this mans actions still to this day
I miss Filthy Frank too much. He would have roasted Logan Paul's ass to kingdom come.
KaidanTONiO joji can make a diss track tho
KaidanTONiO dont worry we have idubbbz
i want idubbbz to make one of logan so bad but that'd just be giving him the attention he craves
IDubbz and Filthy Frank making a diss track on Logan would be the best thing.
quick question does this guy speak fluent Japanese
Personally being Japanese, or a human being in general, it surprises me that Logan was able to hit such a low from already where he is. It is simple and just common sense to follow rules and manner on anything. It’s not a Japanese issue, it is more of a human issue. People especially like Logan need to understand that once you hit an amount of popularity from doing “stupid things” per se, your content shifts from entertainment to a certain amount of influence and power which needs to be held responsibly. Absolutely disgusting.
I don't think I've seen Joey so angry but that's understandable.
Someone teach people how to being respectful = mORaLfaGgiNg
Wait , what? Being MORAL ? You must be fun at parties
Cosmin Costea ayyy we got a logang homeboy up in here!!
I spent a week in Japan , with my daughter 7 years ago. I made every effort to be respectful of the culture and people. It is not hard to look up what not to do in a country.
I'm so angry and confused that RUclips allowed it to go up and even hit trending, the video was taken down by Logan himself and not RUclips... they're quick to take stuff down from other creators but not this which is 100x worse...
As someone who suffers from depression and battles suicide everyday and have had friends commit suicide I'm offended on so many levels.
holyfox6894 Preach
Please keep living, I have no clue who you are but if people who have depression speak out then others with depression will hear you, you can encourage more people by staying alive than being a casualty of the inner war
Thank you hun, I am lucky to have a loving fiance that is always there for me so I don't have to face it alone. I am one of the lucky ones.
Stay strong forever.
holyfox6894 just remember this. Almost all of the people that survived jumping off the golden gate bridge (to kill themselves) says that doing suicide isn't worth it. And that all your problems can be fixed.
You can probably imagine what kind of people disliked this video.
Probably people who blame ladies for being rape victims
@my life is a jøke and by that fucker I meant Logan ass paul
They're either logang r3t4rds or maybe people so bothered they got asshurt because they got reminded about the incident again.
"Logangs"
People who dislike this, that means people who defend Logan Paul for what he did. And they are all hypocrites and got their minds brainwashed by Logan.
I just saw his "I'm sorry" vid, and looked at the comments, and went "what the actual hell?" The fans were just like "it's cool bro" when it's not
True man. They say human mistake. But did he respect that dead bodies as a human himself? If he die, i will laugh. Laughing hard.
I bet you saw me ragging on him too? ;)
hulkboyjr you mean?
ANDRE NAZREEN Making comments about what kind of punk he is and how it’s 98% likely that people who defend him are kids.
Lily Zubr That's because the comments are set as new first, which annoys me to no end. You can't even find any sane people in the comment section, I've tried setting it as top first but it doesn't work
Can we just appreciate the fact that he hasn't monetized this video, which goes on to show how much of his words he says, he actually means!♥️
my respect for you is unlimited! thank you for speaking up about this!

Same. Hellwo fellow army
heeeyy fellow armys luv ya ❤
Quite hyped here
I agree with your input on this issue. What got me ticked is how much laughter and smiling there was after discovering a body.
4MR Ranch coping strategy buddy
Nick Valentin And that makes this okay _how?_
I've seen a body, and as long as you don't know who they are, it is very exciting and scary, your heart rate will increase and you won't think clearly. Either way he acted as any human would and checked out the situation. I believe that that smile was due to denial, or something similar. It's not uncommon to laugh to brighten the mood or just a scared laugh.
Bro that isn’t coping there is a clear difference you don’t just laugh and smile like he did if ur coping with something like that espically if he put it in the thumbnail that’s just disrespectful in so many ways
EXACTLY- regardless of whether this is a coping mechanism or not, his decision to put this up is fucking horrible
Am I the only one who didn't know about this until The anime man and Aki posted this?
yes. It's been on trending and all over the internet.
Same i didn't know till now
Bone2BeWild no
Bone2BeWild Nah,I didn't even know that guy Logan before.
Now I'm just shocked by the crazy number of subscribers/viewers to his videos.
That makes me even more curious about the content in his channel..
same
I've had a friend, who died in that forest. Logan makes me sick to my stomach. Japan is a beautiful place and so is the forest, and I'm so sorry to anyone who had to deal with the same thing as me or the family member of the dead person. Thank you Joey for sticking up for people like me and others, you're amazing.
If you are suicidal read this: You matter, you're amazing and special. I'm very sorry for why you're feeling this way. If you feel like no one loves you, I love you and care about you, I may not know you, but I hope you know I care.
Goodbye for now
“Logan, get the fuck out of my country” couldn’t have said it better. 😤
Emma Downey Make sure Logan Paul is deported from Japan please, Japanese Government!
duh itz melisha Are you for real? Oh wait, you're 8.
duh itz melisha An apology doesn't fix what he did. If it wasn't the dead body, it was how he went about treating Japan like a stereotype. That was just as disrespectful...
+duh itz melisha oh wow soo if he is sorry that gets him rights to a fucking record a video showing a poor dead person and laught at it ? ... welp thats a fuck up if you ask meh
