YouTuber gets warning, 5 videos removed after dodging train fares, stealing food in Japan

Fidias’ video has since been reuploaded by other users.

One of the clips show him entering a hotel and pretending to be a guest in order to get free breakfast.

“I just (got) access to a five-star Japanese buffet. And we’re leaving the hotel without getting caught and without any problem,” he triumphantly tells the camera.

Other parts of the video show the four begging for money from locals to pay for tickets.

His behaviour has sparked condemnation, becoming the latest example of fame-seeking foreigners riling locals in Japan.

“Another strange, annoying YouTuber from abroad emerged. In addition to this guy Fidias, the three others should be arrested,” one social media user said.

Another said: “Surprisingly, comments section to his (online post) is full of applause. (Police) should arrest him to prevent copycat crimes from happening.”

Regional train operator JR Kyushu said it was studying the footage before deciding whether to inform the police.

“We are aware of the case and investigating facts around it,” a spokesman told AFP.

The YouTuber issued an apology on Tuesday.

“Hello beautiful people I apologise to the Japanese people if we made them feel bad that was not our goal! From now on I am going to be make more research to the cultures we go to and try to prevent this from happening again,” he said on his channel.
