so this is the other photo and I'll give you some context over it first of all the
00:00:06.960
sound is very very different it's actually very quiet and not as chaotic
00:00:10.320
and we realized that the really loud scratching crazy sounds that you heard
00:00:14.100
were added in to create a scary effect this is actually quite calm if you
00:00:17.980
listen to it yeah and then Tommy pushes him first that wasn't in it and then

most viral video which is what really happened when a migrant attack it's got
00:00:50.900
2.1 million views and it's four minutes long and we can just watch parts of it
00:00:55.600
just to we've only been in the area for a mere minutes when the migrants hanging
00:01:00.040
around began to notice the camera one of them even going for my camera
00:01:15.420
so this is where all starts to get really fake but I'll explain that
00:01:25.580
you can see it's getting really intense this static noise that's added that's fake
00:01:42.580
you can see it's getting really intense this static noise that's added that's fake
00:01:46.580
why are the people saying that and this is just people being like why did you why did
00:01:58.300
you hit him what's going on because it looks like in that video and we'll show in the other
00:02:01.580
version it looks like that guy has just seen the camera gotten really angry
00:02:05.020
I'll be honest with you if I was watching this as someone from a neutral side not for anyone
00:02:09.020
I'll be like well he did a good job like in the context where he was like you know he went there
00:02:12.840
a journalist would be an attack I heard her screams and he goes there like a brave man like a hero
00:02:17.100
he goes there and this guy's coming to attack him saying I'm going to take your life and he hits him
00:02:20.840
I would justify everything you know if you think about the way when you look at it from this angle
00:02:26.580
no and this is what I gave to the independent and what byline time spoke about as well
00:02:30.320
and they dissected it and it's a little bit complicated but I'll go through exactly what it was like
00:02:33.740
so this is the raw so this is this so this raw footage guys is basically what really happened
00:02:39.260
yeah and and it's and you know it's it's it amazes you how like you know with editing and
00:02:44.480
adding a few subtitles and changing a few things how it changes the whole paradigm there's a paradigm
00:02:50.160
shift of actually what happened you know it's crazy man and this is this is exactly what ISIS does
00:02:56.680
you know with their videos that for example certain attacks that happen in certain places like look
00:03:00.680
Muslim woman dragged you know we can do the same thing these guys do exactly the same thing
00:03:04.680
look a Muslim woman dragged a Christchurch attack bang bang bang bang bang we need to stand up
00:03:09.200
there you go that is radicalization right there because people are emotional
00:03:12.540
oh they're attacking our sisters for no reason you know we need to do something about it
00:03:16.960
and this is this is how they recruit yeah same exact method that's why I say these guys are
00:03:22.000
no different to ISIS it's the same thing man use the same methods of marketing to recruit
00:03:26.120
so this is the other photo and I'll give you some context over it first of all the sound is very
00:03:33.600
very different it's actually very quiet and not as chaotic and we realized that the really loud
00:03:38.240
scratching crazy sounds that you heard were added in to create a scary effect this is actually quite
00:03:43.180
calm if you listen to it yeah and then Tommy pushes him first that wasn't in it and then Tommy does
00:04:02.980
this which he didn't want aired anyone to see was unprovoked basically that was just like he was
00:04:15.500
just talking to him and if you put that in context yeah now I would be like well hold on a second but
00:04:19.740
you just push the guy face down on towards the car it's gonna it's gonna it's not gonna be good
00:04:24.460
for his narrative no and then that guy obviously was furious and that's what led to the assault
00:04:29.420
actually happening whereas it looks like he just did it because yeah so then they get into an
00:04:34.480
argument they get into a confrontation and he's drunk this guy this is this is how Tommy riled him up
00:04:38.320
all this guy was doing was just being drunk outside the shop like kind of laughing with his friends and
00:04:42.640
then Tommy was going up to them this isn't on camera being like why are you drinking in the street
00:04:46.340
it's illegal to drink in the street just just confronting him and it's a perfect frame look a black
00:04:50.200
migrant yeah drunk you know everything that you would want and you're you're provoking and provoking
00:04:55.340
him and it's just you're it's like going down um central london finding a drunk guy and start
00:04:59.580
picking on him and he comes and he's gonna hit you and you smack him oh look at that's exactly what
00:05:03.180
he's done yeah it's unbelievable completely and he's really distressed he's like covered in the
00:05:08.920
drink from when he pushed him in front of the car look he's seeing my clothes and you see it's
00:05:15.320
actually much quieter yeah and even this is full volume and this guy is all is he saying is keep
00:05:25.800
your life which means keep yourself to yourself yeah but Tommy is twisting it to make it seem like
00:05:30.020
he's like I could kill you but I'll let you keep your life all of this this is this is why it was
00:05:34.520
you keep your life okay tell me if I'm right or wrong where is this uh this is in Italy Italy
00:05:43.140
if you guys went all the way to Italy you want to content like this or it's a waste of journey
00:05:48.520
correct me if I'm right or wrong yeah yeah because to his narrative if you're going somewhere there
00:05:52.280
has to be drama wherever this guy goes for some reason like he gets into some kind of a fight so to
00:05:58.100
go all the way to Italy this is this has to be worth it so to me it seems as if he's like okay man if
00:06:02.800
I go all the way to Italy and just show a few people sleeping on the roads people are going
00:06:05.940
to sympathize with these people maybe I'll be like you know why you know so he's like I know
00:06:09.180
I'll provoke a drunk let me pick on a that's how he seems to me literally it's unbelievable
00:06:12.560
who the fuck do you think you are it's not even your country to do that who do you think you are
00:06:17.240
well hold on a second hold on a second he's drunk he's outside he's causing nuisance
00:06:21.360
what's that got to do where he's from yeah any drunk guy I don't have any drunk people they're just
00:06:25.840
called nuisance I don't go to him be like you know where you're from or that what's it what's got to do
00:06:30.780
where he's from his bloody drunk yeah and there wasn't even nuisance he was just like swaying
00:06:34.040
outside the shop like okay if it was a British born individual what are you going to say to him
00:06:37.680
oh you're British yeah you can cause nuisance you're from our country mate yeah you you're
00:06:40.860
migrant you're not allowed to cause he didn't want that in the video as well that's not in the final
00:06:45.200
video because that's like really far like I don't damn blame him because it would have looked really bad
00:06:49.360
yeah he's just saying like you're crazy you pushed me in front of a car like why would you do that
00:06:57.920
keep yourself to yourself but the subtitle said kill yourself which is not true
00:07:08.520
he said make money go and live your life like do what you want to do but Tommy's wanting to turn
00:07:20.640
it into almost like it's threats and then he punches him and then but it made it but he put
00:07:25.100
that at the beginning to make it look like he just like went up to him and said kill yourself
00:07:28.600
I'm gonna um and this time Tommy's like really worried because the police come look other people
00:07:35.360
are like what are you doing you can't do that yeah oh that's another bit you know how that guy's like
00:07:38.780
you cannot you cannot he put that before the punch to make it look like that the reaction from the
00:07:44.020
other migrants was aggressive when that was them responding to him so it but it's reversed yes
00:07:48.340
if it was self-defense anyone the public would have not been like that they would just be like okay
00:07:53.440
this guy was drunk he tried to walk to him and he hit him not that deep but you can see the
00:07:57.460
public like come on man you've provoked that and then you punch him yeah and for some reason this
00:08:01.020
guy told me he always punches his drunk people I think that's the only kind of people he can knock
00:08:03.520
out yeah it seems like and you see how now he's upset and he's like he's like coming towards a bit
00:08:08.620
that again if you watch the video that went out that's at the beginning to make it look like he's
00:08:13.060
just crazy out of control but it's very different if you watch this the police yeah the police are
00:08:18.340
trying to calm everything down and then these people are outraged they're like why on earth
00:08:22.960
would you do that did he get arrested uh no but if the police saw this footage then he would have
00:08:29.840
been he might even get banned from italy if this goes public because it's like it was genuinely an
00:08:34.940
unprovoked assault to push him in front of the car it's unbelievable man it's unbelievable it's a
00:08:39.520
completely different video to the one that went out and imagine if he has the capabilities to do that
00:08:43.060
in this video how many more videos did he do that and made it seem as if he's the innocent person
00:08:47.820
yeah in it and you need to understand that some people might be like okay so what no this this
00:08:53.660
narrative is what causes innocent people you know that for him his propaganda uh to be spread out you
00:08:59.380
know people don't understand these kind of videos is what's causing people to go out there build trust
00:09:03.580
for him so everything he says people believe you know and then i'll be honest with you i have no doubt
00:09:07.760
the christian attacker watched his videos no doubt about it for him to build a
00:09:13.000
rage but to see this and be like look what they're doing and seem as some kind of a hero i don't
00:09:17.120
like it's unbelievable but he would make a lot of money if a video went viral and if he painted
00:09:22.140
this image of himself as like this hero that comes in the donations went through the roof the
00:09:25.440
expose that i did this week it was like half a million that's what i'm saying to you caleb is the
00:09:28.680
reason why he's going to italy he needs to make it worth the while yeah and he needs this content
00:09:32.700
because i'll be honest if i was like inclined to the far right i'm damn donating to the video that you
00:09:37.880
showed me i'm 100 this guy's a hero going to italy confronting these migrants he tries to attack him
00:09:42.560
hits him justified i would 100 support it if you showed me this it could change my mind would
00:09:48.020
yeah and it wouldn't have gone viral and it wouldn't work exactly and you see how radicalism
00:09:51.980
happens because as as if i had far right inclination and i'm seeing this i'm going to get more radicalized
00:09:57.020
i'm going to be store supporter of his you just see the ripple effects man in our society these these
00:10:02.020
actions you know and what they cause and like one thing as well as tommy and a couple of the far
00:10:06.760
people i was working with at the time would always joke that it's actually if you want to go to a real
00:10:09.600
no-go zone with a camera you go to a white neighborhood that's poor in poland where
00:10:13.720
they'll literally like just steal the camera and take that's like the most dangerous part but they
00:10:17.440
they literally knew all of that but they were like this is what sells it's not big money especially
00:10:21.180
with their sharia no-go zones i'm like i was i didn't want to laugh or cry over i hope people
00:10:25.500
watching this at home you know realize you know that these people they don't they don't care about
00:10:30.540
you i'm being honest with him isis they don't care about they have an agenda they want to
00:10:34.520
suit that and they're just recruiting you guys via these videos why these propaganda videos get you
00:10:39.180
emotional get you you know and and jump on board and then just use you you know and you're the one
00:10:43.960
