YouTuber Logan Paul has returned to the platform after a three-week hiatus following the controversy surrounding his video Japan’s “Suicide Forest.”

Uploading his first video since the apology he filmed earlier this month, the new video also focuses on suicide.

Titled "Suicide: Be Here Tomorrow," the video follows 22-year-old Paul as he attempts to educate himself on suicide.

Opening with suicide statistics, the video features Paul interviewing suicide survivor, Kevin Hines, Alo House Recovery Center’s Bob Forrest, and Dr John Draper, director of the Suicide Prevention Lifeline.

Speaking to Forrest, the YouTuber reveals that he has never known anyone who has died from suicide, which happens to be the second-leading cause of death in Ohio - Paul’s home state.

According to Paul, it was his “ignorance on the subject,” that was “part of the problem.”

Paul then states: “I think as a society, as human beings, we just have to be more compassionate - and that includes me too.”

The YouTuber then lists the five steps Dr Draper taught him can help prevent suicide: ask, listen, be there, help connect, and check in.

And in an “effort to contribute and immerse myself in the conversation,” Paul reveals he will be pledging “$1m to various suicide organisations.”

Concluding the seven-minute video, Paul says: “For anyone watching, I want you to know you are not alone,” and encourages anyone watching who feels suicidal to call the suicide crisis hotlines shown on the screen.
