What type of videos does Lewis Saunderson create on TikTok?<\/h2>\n

Lewis creates what he calls "awareness" videos that show challenging situations and even include "death".<\/p>\n

One harrowing video shows him reenacting the moment his "son drowns in a paddling pool".<\/p>\n

He claims he recreates these tragic scenes to highlight the importance of safety – for example not leaving a child alone in a paddling pool.<\/p>\n

Lewis does include the hashtag "fiction" on his clips, but some followers have felt the captions don't always make it clear that the videos aren't real.<\/p>\n

What has Lewis Saunderson said about his videos?<\/h2>\n

Many of Lewis' videos have caused a stir and left followers feeling confused and angry with they turned out to be fake.<\/p>\n

He responded to the backlash in a TikTok video, where he said that hetook people's belief of his clips as a "compliment", and that he was "always having to set the record straight and clear up any confusion".<\/p>\n

Addressing his followers he said: "When another video goes viral I have to do this justifying again." <\/p>\n

"The majority of people will just scroll their page, my videos will pop up and a lot of people assume they're real.<\/p>\n

"It's annoying because I'm never trying to make out that I'm going through these things. <\/p>\n

"At the end of the day people will believe what they will believe."<\/p>\n

Lewis said there's a "divide" between people who understand he's trying to raise awareness and people who "can't understand" why he does it.<\/p>\n

He then argued he's "just an actor playing a character and telling a story".<\/p>\n

"It's nothing different to when you watch a drama on TV," he said.<\/p>\n

"What I'm doing is harmless in terms of using a platform to demonstrate my skills and tell powerful stories. That's what my brand is… If I was trying to convince people it's real I wouldn't be putting out explanation videos regularly after videos do really well."<\/p>\n

What have people said about Lewis Saunderson's videos?<\/h2>\n

As a result of their realistic nature, many viewers have responded to Lewis' videos with messages of support – especially when they believed his son had drowned.<\/p>\n

One person wrote: "I'm sorry for you man, stay strong and be safe,"<\/p>\n

While another said: "This broke my heart so much. Losing your baby is so hard. I lost my son last year. Prayers."<\/p>\n
