Body Language Analyst REACTS to Shane Dawson's Instagram Live and Apology Video | Faces Episode 10

hey the oats welcome back to observe so the last couple videos in this series have done pretty well and you have hit every marker that i've been wanting to be able to see to let me know that you want to be able to see these so i am now doing shane's video i'm going to analyze it i'm not going to do an analyzation of it because that's not a word but i am going to do an analysis of it [Music] so non-verbally speaking i know a little bit more about shane because i've seen a couple of his videos here and there also i was able to spend some time watching some of his other videos to be able to establish a solid baseline to be able to work off of and shane's baseline is largely very relaxed with a fair bit of expression in the eyebrows and he does this gesture and this gesture a fair bit as well so those are all things that i have noticed and i'm taking into account while i do this reading now this this reading is going to be centered around two different video clips of shane the first one is going to be his instagram live reaction to tati's video and then the next one is going to be his older apology video there's a fair bit to say in each of those so let's go ahead and just start let's just go ahead and start in on this she oh of course is that another ad another ad i'm losing my mind i'm losing my mind this is so this is oh my god i i okay i'm live because i i can't even process it i need a drink of water i [ __ ] processes this is insane this is insane this is insane this woman is oh my god oh my god i'm going to wait till as many people get in here as possible because i'm losing my mind keep playing it keep playing it so how is it that so many editorial outlets knew that something was coming before i because you message drama channels oh my god oh my god oh my god for days the night before i did film jeffrey sent me what he claimed was an audio file from an alleged victim and told me to listen to the pain in my voice the audio was clearly a small portion oh my god conversation it wasn't enough for me to contact the authorities it was enough to scare me why would you make a video on the matter claiming these allegations because she is a i can't i can't i don't want to say mean things about people this is insane this is insane this person literally oh my god oh my god okay sorry keep pressing play i need to get through this video so i can oh my god as a victim of abuse myself oh my god you are so manipulative to [Music] [Music] oh my god i texted shane sharing my concerns for james charles that he was out of the country on the high floor of a hotel and i was afraid okay all right that was him reacting to tati doing that video and i've already done that reaction i've already analyzed that if you want to be able to go and watch that so shane's reaction here all in all is overall genuine uh he is expressing genuine anger maybe to a little bit of an amplified degree it feels amplified to me shane is an expressive person i do know that and i do know he has a tendency towards the dramatic side of things and that comes from his history and acting and also his personality you could see the anger largely in a couple various areas if you look in a certain area you can see a lot of action up in here this is where a lot of anger will display itself however you can also see the sort of dead pan anger that you would notice where his face and eyes are largely expressionless but with that like kind of cold expression that you would expect to see in that sort of anger along with that you could see this tight-lipped expression here closer to the end and this is also an indicator of genuine anger so he's genuinely angry i do hope that he will make a video in reaction to tati's video that's not just him more or less throwing a tantrum on instagram live but is actually him reacting to it so i can have a better analysis so that is that specific read and that leads us on to the next part of this video which is going to be his actual taking accountability video now he did this one before the stuff with jeffrey and tati came out and it was in inspiration as he put it from jenna marbles video which i may do a video on jenna marbles video if this video gets 5 000 likes or more i'll do a video analyzing jenna marbles apology yeah you know what let's just go ahead and dive into it so we can understand hi if you've been watching me for a while then you know that i have done a lot of things in my past that i hate that i wish i could make go away that i try to make go away by uh deleting videos or untagging my okay so right off the bat we're seeing his normal bass line kind of expressions coming out with action in his eyebrows and a lot of the hands together gestures and so that's all good indications as to where he's speaking naturally now what i see here right off the bat is he does an expression which is called a mouth shrug it looks like this and now what a mouth shrug indicates is as all nonverbal communication is up to some interpretation but largely it indicates a presence of insecurity or no confidence in what's being said and i'm going to give you a heads up i've gone through this video a couple times and that expression comes up a lot i counted i went through and i counted and it comes up 29 times in a 20 video i'll explain kind of what that means later on in the video another thing that you will have noticed is that within that first 16 seconds of this video he has already had multiple jump cuts the reason that this is important non-verbally is because often times after sentences are said you can see some of the emotions from it spill out and he's cutting it out now that makes sense for videos like this where it's informational and you want things to continue to flow or entertainment value and you want them to flow but during an apology it's not so much important that it flows so much as you're communicating your genuine apology to people him having so many jump cuts is a barrier to that i counted the number of jump cuts in one minute and averaged it across 20 and if that math stands up he has roughly 260 to 300 jump cuts and one 20-minute apology video but let's go ahead and dive into the rest of it instagram things or literally doing whatever i can to pretend like those things didn't happen because yes i apologize for a lot of them but i'm 31 almost 32. those apologies suck i don't know who that person is anymore every apology video i've ever made has been a from fear it's it's me sitting at home thinking the whole world hates me and crying and hyperventilating and then just turning on a webcam and just saying i'm sorry and then hoping people know i'm a good person and then it'll go away and that is stupid that is something that a child does not something that a 31 year old uh man does that's not that's not good right now is very much part of that is true now here's the thing non-verbally speaking shane is out of the three out of tati jeffrey and shane shane is the best actor out of all of them there are going to be points in his apology where he says things that have been directly contradicted and shown to be wrong and during that time there's not really any non-verbal tell to show that to show misalignment to show any sort of mental acrobatics with that sort of situation that you would expect to see in somebody who is being deceitful and the reason for that is because shane has been one doing youtube for a very long time and then he also has been trained as an actor and whether or not he's a good actor is another question but in this he's showing that he has the ability to act well and so what we are seeing from him is the correct emotive expression to the emotion being talked about this could be seen as being genuine but in this sort of situation since we do know that he is lying in areas this is more an indication that he is simply good at lying so this is going to be an interesting read let's keep going time of wanting people to be accountable wanting a punishment for people and i agree i agree with that big old mouse shrug once again mouse shrugs and nonverbal communication aren't always just set in the stone as to their meanings but having that massive of a mouth shrug right after a statement like i agree indicates that he might not totally agree or he is feeling vulnerable about the situation so you could take that either way like i said i looked at other videos of his to see if this is something that comes up often and it's not it's simply not something that comes up often in his facial repertoire is this mouse drug but in this video coming up 29 times and that's with 260 plus jump cuts to cut out dead space in between if it's coming up that amount of times in a single video something's wrong with the video and i feel like part of it is because he's trying to be vulnerable but the other part of it is because he might not necessarily believe what he's saying aka he could be lying so let's go ahead and keep going through this i'm going to try to keep things moving cleanly as we go on through you can apologize but you can't expect the other person to just forgive you like that's that's doesn't make any sense so i think this video for me so that expression there where he says that doesn't make any sense it's a slight disgust expression which is good and either one this is because he believes that it doesn't make any sense or because he understands what emotions he's supposed to portray at the same time it's more about just saying everything i want to say and ways that i want to help be a part of a change and not be a part of a problem which is what i've been a part of so i'm going to start with all the racism that i put onto the internet as a adult not a child i was at least 20 when i started youtube and i made the decision to play stereotypes of black people or asian people or mexicans or pretty much every race i made that decision i said oh this is funny and i put it on the internet now years later i look back at that and i've talked about this before but i when i say i hate that person i mean it in the most intense way possible i hate that person so much that person was filled with sadness filled with anger about their own issues uh in the closet constantly projecting on others just a lot of mouth shrugs in this and this could be once again that state of vulnerability during these analyses i am going to be reading not only their nonverbal communication but their tone which is also non-verbal the verbal is just strictly the words the tone is something else that can be conveying deceit can be conveying strain so on and so forth and then i will be touching some on the psychology and the verbal side of things because all of it combined is what gives you a solid analysis rather than just looking at one specific leg of it so that's that's kind of what's going on here let's keep going like i don't know just that that person is someone who i don't like seeing and i think that's why i've been avoiding this because i'm like no i already apologize i don't want to go back i don't want to see it again i don't want to see muted on twitter uh untag it on my instagram like i just don't i hate that person so [ __ ] much okay so sorry interesting thing there he says that he hates that person and then he puts his hands down and then he says so much and then he claps his hands and then he continues and it's kind of this jarring here here here go sort of deal and that's non-verbal misalign what this is is he's forcing an emotion out so that people think he's feeling a certain way when he doesn't feel it deeply to his core at that moment this was an excellent example of nonverbal misalignment let's go ahead and keep going i can tell you this i don't have hate for any race or any people with weight issues or any of that special needs i don't have hate in my heart for anyone but it doesn't make up for the fact that i made jokes about everyone and some of the jokes were way too far okay so what he's saying it sounds like he's being genuine and it looks like he's being genuine but it's hard to read because he's a good actor but because he's got like 55 000 jump cuts in there whenever you start to look at his face it's it's almost hard to just keep a track on his face because it's jump cutting so much i would be able to read a lot easier with this if he just didn't jump cut it but i have a feeling that this 20 minute video would have been three and a half hours long by the time he had added all the space in between those jump cuts back in we'll keep going me as a white person wearing a wig and playing a character and doing stereotypes and then saying the n-word is something that i should have probably lost my career for at the time and there's no amount of so he does a couple mouse shrugs there again i should have probably lost my career for a couple mouse drugs tossed in there and there's a couple reasons behind those the the psychological reason behind those are i don't know i should have probably lost my career for it you know i don't know that literally is the translation for it the the broader expression is i don't know i should have lost my career for it you could take it as i don't feel like that i really don't feel like that and he could be doing that that could be part of it in fact there's a large part of me that believes that it's probably true however during these sorts of situations it would be less of him to say yeah you know i should have kept everything that's fine you know i should have kept everything that would come across as less sorry than i should have lost everything so might he not believe it maybe not but once again let's keep going for it that podcast is a source of so much awful [ __ ] for me so many regrets for me and i loved a lot of those moments but a lot of them were like what do we do to make it crazier how do we make things more insane oh how do we make it more shocking like howard stern like it just got to a point where i'm happy it ended because i wasn't even myself i don't even know who i was at that point anyways so okay so during this whole little area here he starts to do something with his hands so he starts talking like this and as he goes along to talk about how he's been wrong in it it moves to this when you have your hands facing straight out like this during a conversation it's usually in the mindset of fending off something this is different this is different this is different even this is different this is usually a an indicator of defensiveness whether it's i don't want to deal with this or i'm pushing this sort of emotion away or anything along those lines whenever this comes up that means that the person speaking is warding off something so as he's starting to talk about himself doing these sorts of things and kind of implying that people are accusing him of that he starts doing this defensive gesture which basically is more or less saying i'm trying to push these people away let's go ahead and keep going in the segment i started talking about you know figuratively murdering someone and it was insane and gross now she believes and a lot of people believe that i was talking about her and i can say if i had a bible i would put my hand on it i can say without a doubt hannah so this part where he's doing this this isn't the same defensive gesture because he's using it as a word picture he's saying that there's a bible here he's putting his hand on the bible it might be a little bit over the top but it's not something to where he's being defensive it's drawing a word picture let's keep watching on a bible that was not about francesca lee that was about another woman not that it makes it okay because it doesn't talking about anybody like that is crazy especially a woman but it was about a white woman and the ironic part is that woman was just trying to get through to me too like she was just trying to explain to me why what i was making on the internet was hurting people it was at a time when i was making a movie and i was constantly on the defensive i felt attacked all the time which is stupid i shouldn't have felt like that and it got so bad that i don't know it almost made me want to make the jokes crazier to make everything crazier almost like as a you know screw you i'm just gonna make it crazier and that's one reason it's hard for me to watch that movie because i would never make a movie like that now interesting thing there when he says i would never make a movie like that now he does a partial shrug that's then followed which is another instance of nonverbal misalignment now some nonverbal analysts will fly off the hook right there and be like that's a sign of deceit it shows that they're not being genuine because this side raised first and then this side so that's a misaligned shrug it's unbalanced it's the same as a smirk it's blah blah it can be absolutely can be but just because you see that sort of instance does not mean that they are being deceptive chances are shane would never make a video like that again that's probably true that sort of partial shrug like that is probably more an indicator of his feelings towards it rather than his deceptiveness let's keep watching i swear on my life i am not somebody who would ever talk about a child like in seriousness i would never talk about a child in any way that was inappropriate that is disgusting that is gross is not something i would ever do it is something i did for shock value or because i thought it was funny or like oh my god my child molest your character or whatever it's all gross and i promise that is not real that is not me have i done sketches where kids okay i'm gonna go ahead and pause here this is one of those instances where we do know that he's lying because there's video footage of it there is evidence that shows he's lying but his non-verbal communication isn't showing that he's lying which this is one of those instances like i said that just shows he's a good actor he is a good liar he does have some defensive gestures in there but all the way around his nonverbal communication is being genuine while he's not so he's lying and he's not showing it wow let's keep going i just was so thoughtless with things i was posting for so many years i just i don't know i just wasn't i wasn't thinking i thought i thought oh i'm in a weird category where i can say whatever i want and i did and now it's the biggest regret of my entire life all of it now even though my apologies uh no he's going through and he's saying i don't know with his verbal and is non-verbal he's got some shrugs in there he's saying i don't know all of this centered around this idea that he's not proceeding forward with assuredness he's not strong in this opinion and then he gets to the end of my entire life looks away does a lip compression all of this indicates that he might just be saying i'm sorry for this just to say he's sorry for this he has been called out by plenty of people by now and he's just saying i'm sorry for the sake of saying i'm sorry in this instance now don't get me wrong all of these people that i analyze there is a high chance that they are sorry or they have had a change of heart and the only way to be able to tell is through actions later on and so far his actions are doing well but i don't think he's as sorry as he says he is in this instance let's keep watching in the past for all of these things have not been good enough they've not been thought out they've been very fear-based they've been not not good at all i do want to say since i've apologized for those things in the past i have made a lot of changes in my life changes in just every every every facet of me has changed i'm not just saying it i'm not just saying oh i'm gonna stop doing that guys i did stop doing that i stopped doing that stuff years ago i don't use any racial slurs in my life i've never used a racial slur in anger ever in my life that is not me that that's true what he said there i don't i don't know obviously i don't know his past but what he portrayed non-verbally that's true and that sort of once again adamantium tone that snuck into his voice with the leaning forward the more aggression that is all saying challenge me on this i have never done this sort of thing that's usually pretty true i'm ready to to own up to this stuff and i'm ready to hopefully show you guys that it's okay to admit when you're wrong it's okay to be upset at your past self for making mistakes but also it's okay if people don't want to accept your apology or if people um don't want to support you anymore that's okay too and i understand if you watching this video right now feel that way please like i don't ever want you to feel like i'm forcing you to forgive me that is not what i want to do and i promise that i'm going to show you through my actions and i promise that whatever i do next will be putting good into the world and it won't be putting hate or drama or anything negative and i'm going to stick by that so thank you for watching this if you watch the whole thing thank you so much and i hope that you learned some lessons from me especially if you're young i hope you learned a lot of lessons from everything that i have done put out into the world mistakes i've made i hope that you can see that and know that it's never too late to address it and to change all right so that was his video oh boy let's summarize real quick here first and foremost with the 29 mouth shrugs that conveys a lot of a lack of confidence in what you're saying or a lack of sincerity take that as you will a lot of them in the context of what they were being said around they lined up they made sense so i think for a large part of it he was sincere but there are absolutely instances that we know he isn't being sincere and the sincerity that he's showing is because he's a really good liar just something that makes a nonverbal analysis much more difficult along with that over 260 jump cuts in one single video is just too much for just about anybody but all in all out of the three between tati jeffrey and shane i believe that shane's was the most well presented emotionally with the non-verbal alignment side of things this could be because he's a really good actor in this field people who are doing youtube for 15 years they get used to doing youtube so it's easier and easier to perform and become genuine for a camera that could be the case of what's happening here but it also could be that he is genuinely trying to make changes in and of himself that's my analysis of this if you would like to be able to see me do non-verbal analysis of other celebrities other youtubers so on and so forth let me know in the comments below if you did like this video hit the like button hit subscribe if you want to be able to see more channels been moving places here recently which has been cool to see so i hope to be able to see more and more of you but for now that's all that i've got for the day my name is logan and you have been oh so awesome as you always are and i will see you in the next video cheers guys [Music] bye
