1. Logan and Jake Paul

On December 31, 2017 Paul would upload a video to his channel, it showed a recently deceased body of a man who had hvng himself in Aokigahara at the base of mount Fuji also known as su!c!de forest due to it being a known su!c!de spot. Paul would have used this video as part 3 of his “tokyo adventures” series but when they found the corpse they notified police. The video gained 6.3 million views within 24 hours of being uploaded. Paul’s video depicting the corpse, whose face was [censored](https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Fogging_(censorship) "Fogging (censorship)") and in the video their reactions to it were criticized by celebrities and politicians… I am sorry but I have to cut this short until I get home as I don’t want to accidentally crash \</3

This appears to be a C&P of the first couple paragraphs from the Wikipedia entry for Logan Paul. I’m closing it on the dual grounds of “Outside the bounds of fair use for quoting,” and “What the fuck is this even supposed to be?”
