About
I Think There's Someone Hanging Right There is a quote spoken by YouTuber and content creator Logan Paul during his infamous 2017 suicide forest video in which he filmed himself finding a person hanging from a tree in Japan's Aokigahara forest. The quote became the subject of memes over the following years as a catchphrase. In November 2024, the phrase then went viral on TikTok as users began editing it over clips of Logan Paul speaking, with many of the videos being captioned, "Logan went off script" or "I think bro went off script."
