The second you don't turn it off and keep watching is when you've lost your humanity. Quoting: Charlie the Choo-Choo Did it happen the same to you? Did you watch a few seconds, too? Weirdness isn't weird, here. So... no need to go "O_o"... but I can't help going O_o the most of the time! To O_o or not to O_o? |

Quoting: Charlie the Choo-Choo I stopped shock videos when it got to that and 3 guys, 1 hammer. Now, I'm scared... I still remember THE video you posted in my previous thread, you know? >:-8 As soon as I have a reaction to that "hangzhou kitten killer" (I didn't even hear about that one!), I'll let you know...

No, don't watch it. Just... don't. In 2006, Wang Jue (王珏), a Chinese nurse appearing in an internet crush video stomping a kitten with her stilettos, gave herself up to authorities after bloggers and some print media started a campaign to trace back the recording. In the beginning, she was labeled as the kitten killer of Hangzhou, because it was believed she was from there; but some internauts recognized an island in northern Heilongjiang province. Upon discovery of her identity, Wang Jue received death threats from many angry animal lovers. |

Quoting: Canadian_lady25 Well, it's not necessary to watch them, either... Once I watch for a few seconds and I don't like what I see, I have my right to "ignore" the rest of the video.

Thank you for your opinion. :-) oh no, i understand that! i hope it didnt seem like i was criticizing you for not watching it, i wasn't, im sorry if my post came off that way. i know not everyone wants to watch this type of stuff. sometimes i almost feel obligated to, because so many people dont want to. i guess my mentality there is "its a dirty job but someone has to do it". i dont really know why im like that.. i just am i guess. i also just read on wikipedia that the one video is a hoax, and its done with prosthetic makeup. [link to en.wikipedia.org] "There is a hoax Internet viral video entitled BME Pain Olympics: Final Round that has nothing to do with the actual Pain Olympics. It has been viewed and promoted by a large number of Web surfers and popular bloggers such as Joe Rogan and has been the subject of reaction videos on sites including YouTube.[6] In the video, two men are seen performing genital self-mutilation (including using a meat cleaver) set to the song "Livin' Like a Zombie" by Mortification. The original video, hosted on BMEzine, displays a message at the end confirming it is fake; however, most of the other versions of the video on other websites do not have that message at the end. According to Shannon Larratt, the creator of the video, the two "competitors" (who are actually the same person) used prosthetic makeup and the video contains no actual body modification.[6]" Last Edited by The*Flipside on 05/18/2012 06:40 PM |

(OP) User ID: 16207466 Spain 05/22/2012 05:51 PM Report Abusive Post Report Copyright Violation | The last posts showed an interesting point of discussion. Do you think these kinds of videos are (morally?) correct? Why? Does the fact that everything you see is a fake change your point of view? Weirdness isn't weird, here.
