Logan Paul wants to set the record straight—again—about that viral video that had some believing he was abusing his dog.
The controversy revolves around a vlog Logan uploaded to his YouTube account in July 2020, where he and some friends went on a boat near June Lake, California determined to catch some fish.
However, things took a turn when Logan’s Australian Shepherd, Broley, accidentally dove into the water around the 4-minute mark of the video linked above. Logan immediately jumped out of the boat to rescue his dog and successfully got him back onboard.
Some users spotted a set of hands behind the dog, believing they were Logan’s, and that he may have attempted to push the dog off on purpose.
Not long after the video was uploaded in 2020, Logan issued a statement in the comments section of the video to clarify that he would "never, ever, ever, push Broley off the boat."
"He jumped and a hand was behind him, petting him, and when he jumped, we attempted to grab him but FOR A FACT we did not push him. watch his body language and you can very evidently see a self induced, independent jump from the little mut. thanks for coming to my Ted talk," he wrote at the time.
Recently, the video of Broley leaping off the boat began to recirculate online, which led some people to jump to same conclusions from years ago. The WWE star to shared a screenshot of the same disclaimer to his X account on Thursday that he shared on his YouTube channel, along with a slow motion video showing that there were two different hands behind the pup to "stabilize" him and prevent him from jumping.
