  • Scare tactics. How about you offer REAL education on HIV instead of putting fear at the forefront. This isn't 1988, and we need a new tactic, cause this stuff isn't working. Think on it...

  • @camarillacub2 We need to fight on many fronts. I feel very touched and I guess I'll remember that video and this probably will make me make some good decisions in the future. Some people try to deny the problem and in that case fear isn't a good tactic, but what else would you propose? All we can do is to educate and believe that people will start taking the risk into consideration.

  • This video should be played at Gay & Lesbian film festivals around the world.

    HIV is spreading at disastrous rates with 50% of new infections being gay men age 18-25.

  • This is a meaningful video, but the age-restricted aspect is truly necessary, I felt suicidal when I watched it a few years back when I started to realize I was gay, and still kinda down watching it again ... Well, it is very depressing, both the image and the song ... :(

  • what are those scars on his chest? ...

  • @jota191 that's how looks AIDS

  • @jota191

    I guess they are Karposi's sarcomas which "became more widely known as one of the AIDS defining illnesses in the 1980s" ( Wikipedia )

  • The only thing i don't like about this video it's a gay man. I think they should've used a straight couple so all those ignorant people would maybe get it through their thick skulls that straight people can get AIDS too..

  • This really cuts deep, especially if you've lost a loved one to AIDS. Condoms or die...it's that serious.

  • Comment removed

  • This is so sad.

  • What is the music ? help !! :)

  • @evagigolo Lisa Germano 'From a shell'

  • dis video is so schocking. But its truth. No glove - no love.

  • This was so sad! : / that jerk who laughed & threw the condom made me want to strangle him....evil pos ._. but the message is true and clear

  • I watched this video 3 years ago from your channel & it amazes me how from 3 years ago the comments are still the same, all filled with hatred, but I still keep hope that one day everyone will learn to accept one another. This is a very strong & powerful video. Thanks for spreading the message about HIV/AIDS awareness. Everyone please have safe sex. We have to beat this disease.

  • @PrettyMiguelz Your mature well spoken comment makes me glad to know there is still sanity and tolerance in this world..thank you for saying that.

  • i like this vid a lot it true all it take is one slip up and your done but not just for gays for everyone strait bi try pan even furry or beast

  • LOL what crap

  • meehuhh i am really bored and need some action... Anyone feelin the same way

  • lisa germano - from the shell. its written at the end of this little movie

  • lisa germano - from hell

  • by the way!!! what song is that?..please!! i really liked it...please!!!

  • Comment removed

  • wow! i got the open mouth!!! This video is great! all gay and straight guys gotta see!!!...

    not only gay got AIDS...everyone could...

    great!!!! we need it play on tv o something!!!

  • this is not on actuality. We are not in 80s or 90s

  • @bubblemaker75: how dare you. people can die from AIDs just as easily as they could back then.

    now if you say that it's not 'actuality' because it's not true that only gay men get AIDs, then I agree.

  • el mensaje es clarisimo

    y el video esta muy bien realizado

    la musica en especial me gusto

  • when u go to bathhouses or sex clubs always carry a small bag with condoms with you in case the business dont provide them.. many gay casual partners are irresponsible and never carry condoms..always carry condoms no matter what

  • @tomi4franki Don't even go to bathhouses or sex clubs.. find a partner that you trust and see some results before even thinking about unprotected sex. even then...

  • es necesario mostrarlo, es una realidad que necesita ser mostrada ya que toda acciòn tiene su reacciòn.

  • This is one of the most depressing videos I have ever seen. We need videos like this in the media. Make it a commercial. This could be a very talked about, controversial yet somewhat appealing video.

    I can't imagine anybody who has seen this video (aside from the gay bashing heteros who are too full of them selves to understand anything else) to not take it seriously.

    If they marketed videos like this for AIDs awareness, I really think we'd see a decline if brought to the public's attention.

  • Dude STFU, Im guessing you're a guy and if you "boned" a chick and got AIDS then should i say im glad YOU got aids? you shouldn't say you're glad anyone gets aids, i hope people like you fucking wake up one day and realize that this shit isnt funny

  • im srry your right this isnt a joke if anybody is having sex they should always were condom and whoever they are doing it with thats not my business but this is more like a pure pressure vid by the other male

  • @gaybatman88 Exactly true, ty

  • U dont get AIDS Straight away U can get HIV which can develop into AIDS.....HIV + AIDS are 2 different things.

    NEVER PUT TWO CONDOMS ON, THEY WILL RUB TOGETHER AND SLPIT!!!!

  • breathtaking

  • oh my...

  • whats the song?

  • wow, this is a very touching video.

  • Really well done, and Lisa Germano is just perfect for this video!

  • how safe is a condom during gay sex becauseim bi and i dont want aids i might use two if someone wouldnt use a condom with me theyre fuckin going home aids is fucking horrible

  • Supposedly not including if the condom rips the percentage of safety is 99.9%.

  • U dont get AIDS Straight away U can get HIV which can develop into AIDS.....HIV + AIDS are 2 different things.

    NEVER PUT TWO CONDOMS ON, THEY WILL RUB TOGETHER AND SLPIT!!!!

  • wow...

  • wonderful video.... really

  • This is so sad...but it's the true reality.We have to not forget what could happens...

  • Wow..this made me cry...this should be on tv or something.

  • really!!!

  • love that song !

  • wow. Really good video. Very emotional. I always feel bad for the guy. This should win an award or something.

  • I wanna be a friend of those people who suffer in AIDS. A friend doesn't always help. Sometimes he can't help. A friend is there all the time! A friend is with you in your pain and loneliness when everybody missed you...

    I wanna be a friend.

  • "Knowing that this is "just a movie", and that the message is clear, i cant ignore the fact that I still feel like I have been witness to a brutal murder"

    same over here ... i feel really sad for the guy who wanted to safe himself, but didn't. if this was real i'd smash the other one. sounds funny, but i get really depressed watching this ... thanks for the movie - well done

  • THiZ ViDEO MAKEzz ME WANNA CRY

    iM SCARED OF THE FUTURE ON WUT WiLL

    HAPPEN TO MEAH

  • no, you are not scarred, you are strong. your most important friend and lover is yourself. you will take good care of your body no matter your HIV status, you will eat properly you will exercise in proper moderation, you will love yourself and you WILL be happy.

    AMEN!

  • what is the name of this movie?

  • exelente video sin duda el mejor video que he visto, el cual hace reflexionar y aprender a que se cuiden.

  • sad truth. passion throws all common sense out the window. wicked vid

  • sorry i'm french and so i will speak french.

    cette vidéo est vraiment excellente pour la prévention! une fois vu, on ne peut s'empêcher d'y repenser en situation. il devrait la passer à la télé!

    sinon... who sing in the music of this video, please? i love this music!

  • music by Lisa Germano - "From a Shell"

  • i get sad everytime i watch this video, it is a reality, but everything is on our hands, it's all up to us, i'm sadly sayin this and afraid of the future

  • why, this exact realization is the key to our success. finally we know what we are doing. we are becoming concious of ourselves and at we are doing. i know i can change the world so im going to be as positive and happy as i can. and now the world is more positive from this. your point could doom us or save us. its how right now we are living that effects out future.

  • Knowing that this is "just a movie", and that the message is clear, i cant ignore the fact that I still feel like I have been witness to a brutal murder.

  • whats this song called

  • From a Shell by Lisa Germano

  • People at STD dating site STDRomance.com_ are positive. nice song!

  • this is amazingly well done.

    i cry every time.

  • This video definately is a wake up call. Near 1:40 and after you can tell on the guys face that he regrets it, but it's too late now. Then at 2:00 you can see how much he hates himself for what he did. There's no going back people, if they won't use a condom, tell them to sod off. Because chances are, if you get hiv or aids from that encounter, he likley knew he had it and just didn't care. Be smart!

  • It made me cry. Several times.

    I don't cry often.

  • awesome

  • Art.

  • I love this video, it makes me think about the way I have sex all the time.

  • that's so moving.

    it soo realistic.

    aids is not only transmitted through

    gay sex, but as well with male &female.

    so ALWAYS wear a condom, because aids is horrible. &for the female &male partner sex.

    i doubt your wife/girlfriend wants a baby.

    again amazing moving video.

  • makes me tear up every time i c it

  • what  a wonderful video!!!!!!

  • this is such a poignant video.

  • That was amazing. I have a friend who is HIV positive...this video...thank you for posting..

  • ooooo shit!.... what a wonderful video, i think that ALL PEOPLE MUST watch a video with this kind of message.

    it makes me cry...

  • This video is very melancholy and realistic. Beautiful message and marvelous clip.

  • i love this video, so sad

  • J'ai la chair de poule à chaque fois que je la regarde... Et Lisa Germano est un choix exceptionnel pour la bande son...

  • as a person living with HIV... sometimes it makes you wonder... hmmm....

  • good point

  • i only listen to this. i cry every time i see it.

  • Those are lesions (a form of cancer) on his chest. They are usually one of the first signs that something is wrong.

  • i seeeee!

  • i just don't get what is on his chest?

  • skin lesions

  • this video is deep!

    i'm likin it.

  • I really appreciated this video.

  • Wtf... My head hurts thats sick

  • dookie on the chest!

  • No those are the first signs of HIV. They are skin lesions, a form of cancer.

  • Karposi's Sarcoma? I heard that's the first infection u get when you contact AIDS. I hope to become a doctor treating and preventing the infection of HIV.

  • so sad

  • Oh yeah and song is amazing and perfect for this.

  • This is brilliant. Just brilliant.

    And so sad.

    I just wanna cry everytime I see it.

  • This is a really well done video. The violent gay sex kind of grossed me out the first time I watched it but I really like this video and song.

    Five stars.

  • omgomgomg

    i just came.

    joke!!!

    omgomg

    thats so scary

  • what is the song in video?

  • music by Lisa Germano - "From a Shell"

  • Sheesh. Makes me glad that I've never been primiscuous. Sad and costly lifestyle.

  • You don't have to be promiscuous. I was diagnosed POSITIVE and have only ever slept with 2 people.

  • oh, that sux.. :(

  • I got tested After this Video. I cried for a week before getting the results back. I was alright. But now i am more scared then ever before. Knowing that people would actually pass it to spite the living.

  • This video really touches gay people more so then straight. The fact is that it is out there and saying that not having sex is the way is ridiculous. The message of this movie is not to debate weather or not to have sex it is that you should use protection. No matter who you love boy or girl be safe.

    Touching

    Great video!

    ps. the song is From a shell, by lisa germano

  • me encanta este video!!!

    triste pero transmite el mensaje!!!

    de lo mejor!!!

    me encanta!!!

  • Gee... i read the comments and it feels funny to know that i wasnt the only one wanting to cry... it touches you. Does anyone know the name of the song? Truly a great video... very powerful

  • OMG !!!

    that's the bad thing about being gay

    :(

    hay que cuidarse siempre!!

  • Not only gay people get aids. Remember that.

  • Actually most people who have aids are hetrosexual. Most of them are people from the LEDC's who dont use protection. LEDC = Less Economically Developed Countries by the way xD

  • that's so sad...

    i think noone could be able to make fun of this after having watched the film...

  • este video me hace llorar

  • *heul*

  • This video is so moving, five stars all of the way.

  • To GOOd to Be tRue!!!!!!!!!!!

  • Powerful.

    Honest and Raw.

    You can't watch it and not be affected by it.

    A stunning piece of work.

  • the song used. is "From a Shell" by Lisa Germano....enjoy.

  • OMG....such a powerful message...I almost cried. Could you forward me the author's contact...Please

  • You can find his other videos by searching for "Brian Gonzalez" on google or "taxiplasm"

  • AIDS is more likely to be contracted through anal sex and that's why people stear it toward gay people. However, people seem to have forgotten that straight people can get AIDS more than one way because they are more common to stick it in more than one type of hole!

  • Just because there are STDs doesn't mean people need to stop having sex. It means that more people should start using condoms. I know some people who just say that condoms are "gross" or that they "ruin the feeling". Those are the people who need to be educated a bit more.

  • I don't know if anyone else has noticed this, BUT the nurse is really cute ^_^

    And I think they should make a straight version of something like this so uneducated people don't get the idea that only gay people get AIDS. That's not true at all.

    Yep. :]

  • freaks me out every time i see it, its a pity so many of the comments are commenting on the gay facet rather than the disease... or the fact that that guy is so fine =)

  • scary! do you know from who is the music?

  • aww god dat iz so sad i lost my friend to aids and this touch me tahk you soo much

  • this video opens up the eyes of everybody on how important it is to be safe. the intensity of his eyes are heart-wrenching to look at.. and yet.. so captivating... makes you really see the pain that he has undergone.. and for what? sex? it;s not worth it people.

  • so touching

  • scared the shitlife out of me!

  • Go jump out of a plane! Feel the rush! And that doesn't disgrace anyone else, it's just you alone you might kill. By the way, this is coming from a 21 year old very non virgin woman who has learned her lessons from experience.

  • heh heh... whyat a cute little mind you have. time-travelled recently? from the past?

  • Perhaps I just desire a world where people don't die from their own stupid decisions. Why is sex the center of our lives? There's SO much more out there!!!

  • Yeah, some people can make stupid decisions and still keep living. There is SO much more out there so go make a few stupid mistakes it is called living and learning. Get over yourself and your judgemental ways

  • It's not just AIDS, it's all kinds of STDs...and some don't show up until you're older and out of your "wild days," then you can pass it on to your kids unknowingly...I just do not understand that of all risky activities there are to enjoy in this world, why does sex have to be it?

  • There are so many things that we just don't do because it's just not smart...except stop having sex with anyone but your married-for-life partner. Life would be so much simpler! You might argue boring, but you'll sure live a longer boring life!

  • Life is so black and white for you, isn't it? Just wait till something wakes you up and makes the world way too real for you...

  • SAFE sex? What about NO sex! Then we wouldn't have these problems!! Pardon my right wing statement, but Satan is taking us to hell in a handbasket. And we're going so blissfully! Why do we continue to do such a risky thing? Do you run out in the highway? Would you swim in sewage? Is your garbage man's truck where you brush your teeth and bathe?

  • You're right. No one should have sex. Ever. Brilliant.

  • right, I think YOU should stop having sex now. Save us all from having to live with your children, stop it now before you can spread your evil thoughts any further

  • Dysphoria

  • woah o.O i hope this opens the eyes of some people

  • Gostei muito...

  • The actors in this film are michael mittman and zachariah bourne.

  • u can never know... For a few minutes of plaisure u can risk your entire life... Great video!!!

  • so touching...great video

  • This video is absolutely amazing... Does anyone know whose this song is?

  • This video is absolutely amazing! It certainly shows people that protection can be life-saving. Thanks for posting this video.

  • This video is AMAZING!!!!

    THANK YOU! It's really made me STOP and THINK!

    Thank you

  • Why the hell are you guys talking about Jesus and God? Tank you for this awsome video. Maybe, next time, it should be made with a man and a woman, so that people can catch the true sens of it! Its not about the gay, but about aid and other sexual illeness (sorry for my english ^^)

  • That was sad but beautiful. Great song too.

  • what song was this?

  • Lisa Germano: From a shell

  • simplemente genial

  • You think that is sad I cant bear to think many will burn in a lake of fire for simply denying God and that he died for our sins.Jesus died for you you see that on his body that is nothing to what will happen in hell.Jesus can free you love him and have faith he will love you always.

  • Do not be ignorant 6gording6, there is no passage in the Bible that shows that Jesus condemned at any time any gay people. Have you ever read The Holy Bible or it was enough to you listening the hearsay from more ignorant people? Have you check yourself with a test lately?

  • then why did god take anger on the people of sodom and gomoro ???

  • Have you really read the Bible? The Sodoma and Gomorra destruction was because they were HOSTILE and did not welcome the Angels of God. You really need to stop just going ahead from hearsay or commercial propaganda. You should read and understand, before blasfem.

  • Judges 19:20-22,

    20. And the old man said, "Peace be to you, just let all your needs be upon me, but do not lodge in the street."

    22. As they were enjoying themselves, and behold, the men of the city, men of wickedness, surrounded the house, (and were) beating at the door. And they spoke to the man, the elderly master of the house, saying, "Bring out the man that came into your house, so that we may be intimate with him

  • Exactly. For the older days in those towns, INTIMATE referred to get acquinted in a higher level. So, Lot was saved, because he was not hostile and welcomed the man who came into his house. Anyway, is your knowledge, God bless you anyway. Did Jesus discarded any of his disciples? What do we know about them? Have the church follow these exemplary gentlement (and Maria Magdalena of course) lives to show the world the truth? Oh, no. Because, truth does not sells millions.

  • to: mcprankster

    and do you know what happens later? The old man lets these other people rape his girl. By the way he kills her later.

    And I don't think it's less crime than man having sex with another man.

    So don't say that God destroyed S&G only because of gay people.

    anyway, I like the fact that there are some people in the world who still read Bible;)

  • Every bible we read now are translations of PARTS of texts founds in another language hundreds of years ago. You have absolutly no clue if they are correct translations,

    You know what why am I even dignifying this. You talk shit. Just fack off and take your ignorant misguiding bigot views with you.

  • Look. I'm trying to jack off to gay porn here. If you don't stop all this anti gay talk I'm going to rape you. Then you'll go to 'hell' for taking one for the team. Now sod off.

  • wait a sec

    who said it's "anti gay talk"?!

    I said that God destroyed S&G because evil people lived there. Not because gay people lived there. Anyway. I'm a girl and I like girls too, so believe me, I'm not anti gay.

    And this is not a gay porn.

  • Right. 1, gay porn thing was a joke, this is quite clearny not porn.Not that I was refering to this anyway.

    2, the main problem with your post is it doesn't make any sense. It's bady written. Kinda like the bible.

  • no, I think that the main problem is that you think you can say bad things about Bible and I can't say a bad think about gay people [not that I've ever said something against gays and meant it]. It's kinda ironic, isn't it? you can say whatever you want and when I disagree with you, you just say "sod off".

  • Yeah, difference is I was joking. And you've gone on this holy crusade. I honestly don't give a shit anymore this happened like 2 months ago.

  • Sod off? I like it!

  • It's the British way! :P

  • actually Lot has sex with his daughter/s in that story, but god doesnt give a shit about that, but there is no mention of " HOMOSEXUALS" there was a problem with the fact that they did not allow people or angels into the house and that the people lusted after the angels. - its a very unclear story. like most

  • Maybe like this he can find Jesus who is true love.And if you do this life maybe hell her but in the end you will rewarded the peace you want.Rememver Jesus loves you no matter what.Have faith and he shall give you life.

  • this video is great, i can't stop of seeing it...

    :)

  • Loved this movie tastefull and well worth every second will take this with me for the rest of my life. You tube should not ever remove this treasure from us XXXOOO Thankyou

  • *tear*
