Nearly everyone is aware of the increasing danger of knife crime across the country but Tower Hamlets Council wanted to speak especially to the youth of the borough to highlight the danger with an arresting new ad.




By carrying a knife young people are actually putting themselves at risk, whether as part of gang culture or as self defence. Research has shown that knife carriers are more likely to be wounded by their own blades because the knife is likely to be turned on them.




The film, created by Sonny Adorjan and Milo Campbell and directed by Kevin Thomas, shows a young man being chased through the busy city streets of London by an assailant. There are glimpses of the assailant as he gets closer to his victim and when the chase finally ends in a residential street with the young man being stabbed in the neck, it is finally revealed that he has been attacked by himself.

  • Its disgusting bengali youths havent taken in respect and manners their parents have taught them instead they think fighting being part of a gang is the 'good way' of life. Then again some parents dont teach their kids this. Fortunatley for me i've listened to my parents and havent been influenced.

  • yea guys dont carry a knife, a clone will appear out of nowhere and try to stab you

  • Towerhamlets is full of dirty bengalis low caste asians who are rude and racist and have no respect or manners, the majourity of bengali men are take crack and herion drugs and the majourity of bengalis think they are black and yet they are so racist an rude and segregate themselves they dont even mix with other people, these people call themselves peaceful muslims more like two faced TERRORIST, just look at the state of Tower hamlets it is a Ghetto is worst than Hackney.

  • FUCKING CLONES

  • next time carry a gun lads...

  • Instead of the current approach by the Met Police..."We can't do anything till a crime happens"

    Well Should we leave the ambulance at the bottom of the cliff as well for when we fall?

    We need to adopt the "BROKEN WINDOW" method to attack crime, as used successfully by New York.

    If we fix the broken window (The Route cause) we begin the clear up the major problems earlier.

    More Police back on the Streets to Police the streets!!

  • @sanandreas6 arnt u a clever little guy its not the parents its the friends u bitch. 

  • @Camberwell86 and thats why i think non-leathal weapons should be legalized.

  • @thenoobcannon it won't work as a deterrent. The video is saying "pull a knife out, and you will use it, or you will get stabbed." To be honest mate, I'd rather take the blade and risk dying than get 15+ years for murder/manslaughter. Carry a knife and pull it out, there are three possibilities: a) you stab someone b) someone stabs you or c) they go one further and shoot you or something. The probability of pulling a knife on a street gang and them running away scared is probably 0.01%

  • @Camberwell86 good pont i guess. the knife is intended to be used as a deterent. i doubt you could have a sword fight with them. the ad is trying to say that it is very easy for someone to take your knife off you and kill you with it. which is utter bullshit. just try grabbing a knife form a yob.

  • @thenoobcannon why are you completely defenceless if you don't carry a knife? If someone comes at you with a knife, you think you need a knife as well to have a little mini-sword fight? You've still got to make contact with your hand... so knock the cunt out before he swipes, learn martial arts and take it off the geezer... more than one way to skin a cat, son. "Don't carry a knife and you are completely defenceless," hahaha. And you've got the audacity to call yourself the noob cannon, lololol
