"Joerg Sprave's Troubles"
 
   LAST EDITED ON Apr-08-17 AT 02:38 PM (EDT)
 
I follow Joerg Sprave on Youtube and this massive german is a pretty nice bloke, but after two weeks of not being able to get Youtube I find out that Joerg was hit by the The Dail Mail on Sunday, a UK tabloid with a Community Strike against his channel on the 1st or 2nd of April. The entire thing boils down to the fact Joerg's title for a video was "How to pierce a stab proof vest." He probably should have named it something like "Don't buy this stab proof vest." Joerg bought the vest on Amazon and did a review about said vest where he proved the vest was rubbish as the stab plate was made of aluminum and not very thick aluminum at that.

The Daily Mail on Sunday visited Joerg and wrote an article that you can read here Google cashes in on Youtube video of Kieth Palmer Stabbing where in the article Joerg is described as a weapons 'expert' and how he uploaded a sickening how to video to duplicate the stabbing of PC Kieth Palmer, a English police officer killed in the Westminster terror attack. However The Daily Mail contradicts themselves in the article and are doing more to profit from this than Joerg himself. Joerg has had the Community Strike removed and is planning on re-uploading the video with a few changes.
Here is Joerg's Reply to The Daily Mail in which he has a point about the paper. Also The Daily Mail has closed comments pretty much a day after the article was closed as pretty much all the comments are supporting Joerg.

   Ah, the Daily Fail. I saw someone lay the savagest burn on them on Twitter the other day. They had sent him the usual "hey can we use a photo you posted? we won't pay you but it's exposure!" nonsense, and he replied with something to the effect of, "No, but here's something you can run instead."

It's absolutely true...because I read it in the Daily Mail.
