世界的人気ユーチューバー、ローガン・ポール（Logan Paul）さんが、自殺の名所として知られる青木ヶ原樹海で遺体を発見しそれを投稿したため大問題になりました。

動画投稿サイト「ユーチューブ」に動画を投稿して広告収入を得る「ユーチューバー」として若者に人気の米国人男性ローガン・ポール氏が、富士山の北西、山梨県の青木ケ原樹海で自殺したとみられる遺体の動画を投稿して批判が殺到し、謝罪に追い込まれた。動画も削除した。米メディアが２日報じた。

ポール氏は富士山麓の樹海を仲間と散策した際に首をつって自殺したとみられる遺体を発見。一部始終を撮影した動画をユーチューブに一時投稿していた。批判を受け、ツイッターで謝罪した上で「自殺防止の意識を高めようとした」などと釈明した。（米人気ユーチューバー、富士の青木ケ原樹海で自殺遺体の動画投稿　批判殺到で謝罪、削除 sankei.com 2018.1.3 00:26）

 

【1月3日 AFP】米俳優で、動画共有サイト「ユーチューブ（YouTube）」上で人気の「ユーチューバー」としても知られるローガン・ポール（Logan Paul）さんが、日本の富士山麓の青木ケ原（Aokigahara）樹海で自殺した人の遺体を撮影した動画を投稿して非難が殺到したことを受け、謝罪した。動画は既に削除されているが、それ以前に600万人が視聴していたと報じられている。

報道によると、問題の動画には首をつって自殺した男性の遺体が映っていたとされる。ツイッター（Twitter）では動画に対する批判が殺到。さらに、編集時にカットされたもののツイッター上で拡散したシーンでは、現場で笑い冗談を飛ばすポールさんが映っており、非難の火に油を注いでいる。（afpbb.com 2018年1月3日 4:51）

 

動画は、本人は削除しましたが、依然としてYOUTUBE上で見ることができるようです。報道では、現場で冗談を言って笑っていたとありますが、一体どのような態度で何を話していたのか非常に気になったっため、会話の部分を見てみることにします。遺体を見つけたときの彼らの反応は、DISRESPECTFULというわけではないように見えます。また、後から、本人は自分の反応について、

Me, smiling and laughing does not, uh, it’s not a portrayal of how I feel about the circumstances. I cope with things with humor, while this is incredibly sad.

と述べており、日本人からするとおちゃらけていて非常に不愉快に受け取れなくもないのですが、新聞の記事から受けた印象とは異なっていたようです。しかし遺体を映したという行為は許されるものではないでしょう。しかもこのYOUTUBERのファンは若い世代、少年少女が多いらしいので、なおさらです。本人は、動画をあげた行為に関して、謝罪をしています。

02:32
happened to anyone on YouTube ever now

問題の場面

07:44 I really hate to say this. I think there’s someone hanging right there mmm
07:51 I’m not even *** kidding.
07:54 Do you see? I’m not even this is no joke, guys.
07:58 That’s a fucking person – I told you
08:06 What the heck? Dude, let’s go. What’s the heck?
08:08 I’ve never seen a dead person. You haven’t? No, bro.
08:16 Oh my god. He’s hanging.
08:16 Bro, do we just fight a dead person in the suicide forest hanging? Yes. Do you think that’s real? Well it could be because one of my classmate in the junior high school, he really killed himself
08:29 No. Yeah. He was only twenty-one.
08:37 Excuse me?
08:41 How long do you think he’s crazy no
08:43 This isn’t real.  bro We gotta call the police. Call the police, Bro. Yeah. Yeah.
08:51 Hello.
08:53 Yeah, what the *** actually.
08:59 Yo are you alive you going those.  So, OK, a lot of things going through my mind. Um,this is the first for me. It’s definitely a first for me. This literally probably just happened. Um, Ysushi, you call the police?
09:19 This is dude whose hands are purple. Probably he did this this morning. I’m so sorry about this. Oh, no. I’m, I’m so sorry about this Logan. This was supposed to be fun vlog. We were gonna address this before we saw this. I’m not just saying this but I was gonna set up the camp and everything. Obviously, and now experiencing in real life and firsthand suicide is not a joke. depression and mental illnesses are not joke. No way. We came here with an intent to focus on the haunted aspect of the forest.
09:55 This just became very real. And, obviously, a lot of people are going through a lot in their lives and ..  We just want you guys to know that if you’re going through anything like we’re here for you wherever your friends or family love things there are people out there for you. We just want you guys to know that remember that. 10:15 Suicide is not the answer guys. There are people that love you and care for you. Like I said we’re gonna do this before this happened this just turned really way to scarily real.
10:31 The craziest part about this …  The parking lot is right there dude. Yes literally right there. Like, guys, we’re a hundred yards away from parking lot. I don’t, I don’t feel very good. Yeah. Well you never ever stand next to a dead guy.
10:47 No.
10:57 It was all it was gonna be a joke. Yeah. This was all gonna be a joke. Why it has become so real?
11:03 This is the thing. This is the thing. That is now in our lives. Just experience.
11:07 What the ** is going on? I don’t know, dude. Why?
11:12 It’s sinking in, bro. It wasn’t  supposed to happen, man.
11:16 Just doesn’t make sense.
11:18 This bag is right there. He’s got stuff in his pants what am I still here what are we doing? I’ve never seen a dead person.
11:25 Like, like, I’ve never discovered, never discovered a dead person.
11:33 It’s not something I really planned on doing. Yeah. Yeah.
11:35 I will say, as you know, you can see we blurred the face of the victim. Because we felt like we should protect his identity.
11:44 Authorities are on their way. This is the most real vlog I’ve ever made 400 plus blogs. And I’ve never, I’ve never had a more real moment than this.
12:18 What the f**.  Feel like this was a stupid hat to wear.
12:20 What are the chances we choose this, this part of the path to walk down there. It’s fate and me. Crazy. It’s not like we could
12:29 see it it’s right there but you can’t see it.
12:34 It’s how our lives unfold there’s no going back.
12:36 I’ve seen things I can’t unsee.

Top one. This is the craziest thing I’ve ever experienced. Ain’t gonna be sober fish I’m gonna drink this Japanese sake. It’s just literally the **** craziest moment of my life.
14:09 I’m sorry for swearing so much. I’m already getting flag 40 – a nation bro.
14:12 oh dude.
14：15 Me, smiling and laughing does not, uh, it’s not a portrayal of how I feel about the circumstances. It’s just your coping mechanism. Definitely.  You cope with it with humor. If you guys haven’t noticed, I do, I cope with things with humor, while this is incredibly sad. so that a thousand times it’s crazy.
14:39 yeah no way Okay.
14:44 I have one piece of advice. Okay? Listen closely.

feeling ostracized or isolated that’s
15:43
fine being depressed is fine what’s not

15:52
hide your feelings stay strong

whatever it is you’re going through
15:54
