[quote]Web giant YouTube has defied calls to take down a sickening video showing how to penetrate a stab vest because it claims it will enhance safety.
The astonishing refusal comes after Home Secretary Amber Rudd revealed a terror plot had been inspired by online videos showing how to attack someone who is wearing a stab vest.
The YouTube clip shows how to plunge a knife through a protective vest similar to the one worn by Westminster terror victim PC Keith Palmer.[/quote]
As a result, Jörg has started to look into possible legal action against the Daily Mail for lying again and misusing his statement. You can hear it at 7:45 of this update video.

The national shame of Britain rears it's ugly head again. Hopefully it keeps losing advertisers to the point it dies a horrible death.
Good fucking God, i hope The Daily Mail gets the same fate as Gawker at this point.
Jörg is seriously one of the most sweet online personalities I've ever seen. He doesn't deserve this crap.
Wow I can't believe it. Jörg was hoping the writer wouldn't take his comments out of context. Poor guy wouldn't harm a fly let alone train terrorists.
The article comments are all on Jörg's side though and shitting on the reporter which is nice.
"it shows how to plunge a knife through a stab vest"
i mean that's not something you really need to have demonstrated, it's pretty straightforward

The ironic and sick thing is his video shows that cheap vests you can buy online provide poor protection against being stabbed, which could prevent someone from buying one and falsely believing they are safe. The Mail is essentially acting against the public's best interest by wanting to censor this information.

As a how to video, it would be pretty horrible. He just stabbed it into a vests' strongest point. Had he done that to a police vest, it would not even go through.
Honestly a how to video on how to get through a stab proof vest would actually just advise you to stab over or under the vest and avoid it entirely. This reporter should be fired for lying, and IIRC britain has standards for news reporting that this man is clearly violating.

Daily Mail and this reporter can be sued for straight up libel charges. They're defaming Jörg and completely changing what he told them, making his statement he provided to them completely wrong and the actual inverse (he states that the vests the police use will not be penetrated by any style of knife, especially the one he made, this trash of a report spins that to say his video show how to penetrate a police issued vest and his home made knife [I]will[/I] penetrate a police issued vest).
But this is the Daily Mail, its gonna be hard to sue them due to how big they are.
People have attempted it before and they like to pay off to make the case go away.

Yea, as much as people love it when the underdog wins, in this situation Daily Mail is far too big to be brought down by Jörg. Like you said, if it even goes anywhere, he will most likely get paid off and DM wont mention it again.
There has been instances of this in the past where DM has clearly lied, yet they are still up and running. I would love nothing more than DM to burn due to its lies, but don't be getting your hopes up that they will change because of this.

Jorg even pointed out that the policeman who died was stabbed in the throat, where the vest offers no protection whatsoever.
A good vest protects against random stabs to the chest but if someone gets close enough all they have to do is get your jugular, even by sheer luck, and you're done.
I might not follow the slingshot channel but I had the misfortun to have to load the inserts into the daily mail every Saturday and fucking Sunday at 6 fucking 30 in the bloody morning.
To open it up and see the Daily mail go into a senile old man rant about that one German guy who built a tf2 syringe-gun calling him super Satan police killer youtube bloodmoney had me inconsolably angry for the whole fucking day.
Like I hope Jorg starts a gofundme to drag the daily mail through the courts AND the mud. Not content with Runining the UK they also gotta paint every Johnny fucking Foreigner as evil.
Daily mail is honestly the scum of the UK
absolutely nothing would be lost if it went
