The past few weeks, Logan Paul, 22-year-old YouTube sensation, was attacked on social media after he found a suicide victim in Japan’s “suicide forest” and taped his reaction to it, tasering rats on his YouTube channel, joking about tide pod incidents, and making racist comments/gestures on his trip to Japan.
After he broadcasted his finding of a suicide victim in Japan, Paul got an immediate backlash of “How could you do this?” “You’re sick.”
Paul put out a public apology on both Twitter and YouTube within a day.

Paul’s net worth is $12.5 million. He gets paid $150,000 per Facebook post, $80,000 for sponsored Instagram content, and for his “apology video” after countless demeaning actions, he was paid $12,000.
A lot of people are asking, “What do we have to do to get Logan Paul kicked off YouTube?”
Paul has lost all of his sponsors for Instagram, Twitter, and YouTube. However, he is still making videos and updating his fans daily. He has been on “Good Morning America” to state,
“I am a good guy who made a bad decision”
Yet, one week later Paul is posting videos on his Youtube channel of him tasering rats and joking about tide pod incidents that have sent many to the hospital.
So, the world is asking themselves, is Logan Paul a good guy? And is it one bad decision or one after another?
Tweets have started to surface contacting Logan Paul about deleting his Youtube account and never making another video again.
These are the questions we must ask ourselves when Logan Paul is a social media influencer.
With young children watching and learning, with this spotlight on him at all times, comes great responsibility. One he needs to earn back in the eye of the public.
