A video depicting a young teenage girl giving birth to a baby in a schoolyard was too much for YouTube. The video posted by NHS Leceisteris is a public awareness campaign designed to reduce the instances of teenage pregnancy.
The hard-hitting video is intended to reach a certain portion of the teen demographic that is not currently being swayed by more traditional methods like leaflets or posters.
YouTube removed the video due to terms of use violation within 24 hours of it being posted. We've obtained a copy of the footage courtesy of Kontraband.co.uk.
