But many fans aren't happy with his apology video.
"The biggest problem with me doing that and posting it on the internet was it made young people at the time who were watching me think it was okay," Shane. "I've had people tell me, 'Yeah, I used to watch your videos as a kid and I never saw anything wrong with that,' and that is scary because it made me realize: oh my god, I've been a part of such a huge problem, and I have just been avoiding it — and that's wrong. I'm so sorry.
"My childhood, my past...I've had a lot of pain; I've had a lot of bad things happen to me," Shane said in his video. "I've had a lot of issues with my family, and I took that pain and I made it into jokes.... It's something I did for shock value, or because I thought it was funny. It's all gross and I promise that that is not real; that is not me.", "I used to watch Shane Dawson everyday as a kid. I’m done supporting him.
