Logan Paul Pranks BBC Journalist With Lookalike During Cryptocurrency Allegations Interview

The YouTuber and WWE star staged an elaborate stunt to mock a BBC documentary investigating his alleged involvement in promoting questionable cryptocurrency projects.

Logan Paul replaced himself with a lookalike, Rodney Petersen, for an interview with BBC journalist Matt Shea about cryptocurrency allegations.
The prank was part of Paul's YouTube video addressing claims that he promoted crypto projects without disclosing financial stakes, allegations he has repeatedly denied.
Paul criticized the BBC's documentary as a 'regurgitated hit piece' and highlighted controversies involving the network's past employees to question its credibility.
Shea walked out of the interview after realizing the deception, later accusing Paul of avoiding accountability for the allegations.
Paul, maintaining his innocence, donated $50,000 to a youth charity and stated he made no profit from the crypto projects in question.
