A Sad Case of Cyberbullying - Ghyslain Raza

In May 2003, four classmates of Ghyslain Raza found a private video where Ghyslain was pretending to be a Star Wars Jedi Knight. His classmates thought it would be funny to upload the video to the Internet. Within a few short weeks, it had been viewed millions of times by visitors from around the globe. As of August, 2006, Ghyslain is now the most downloaded male on the Internet (the most downloaded femle is Paris Hilton).

Ghyslain's classmates thought this was funny, and countless spin-offs have found their way to the Internet. The reality for Ghyslain is quite different. Ghyslain was so humiliated and embarrassed by the event he dropped out of high school and finished the year at a faculty specializing in child psychiatry.
