- There has always been a morbid fascination around serial killers, with hundreds of true crime books, countless documentaries, TV and feature films inspired by real life murder stories.
VICE interviews Paul Harrison about his career as a serial killer profiler. He interviewed more than 70 different serial killers and mass murderers to find out more about their psyches. He tells us about the times he spoke to Charles Manson, the Yorkshire Ripper and John Wayne Gacy.

Empathy towards his abusive father led him to study others. Commendable.
Enrique Suazo coping mechanism got him a job
Not empathy so much as getting tired of crossing the wrong wires and having a bomb blow up in your face. More likely he simply wanted to find out how to hack his dad so as to stay ahead of his temper.
He could've grow up to either be a psychopath or to catch those psychopaths. Glad he chose the latter.
@@triky5384 Serial killer, not psychopath. Most psychopaths aren't serial killers, nor do they necessarily commit felonies. Psychopathy is a psychological disorder, not a term for murderer as Hollywood like to make it seem. On the other hand, A serial killer May not necessarily be a psychopath at all.
@@MB-tb6jy You're right
It's strange how childhood trauma can create two people on opposite sides of the bars.
There's 3 outcomes with childhood trauma. Taking it out on yourself, taking it out on others or being able to cope and come out the other side.
Id say the third one is less learning how to cope and more learning how to confront and critically examine your own personal trauma. Personal opinion, coping is more like putting a band-aid on a bullet wound. Going to a good therapist (which is extremely hard to find and can be prohibitively expensive , totally understand that) and working towards becoming more metacognitive of how your personal trauma affects you will go so much further than just learning how to cope. Everybody’s perspective is different so finding a solid support system that works for you, even if it isn’t therapy or counseling, is critical to resolving childhood and adult trauma. We could also just have two different head definitions of what coping is and you already know all this.
@@sauceroflivingpeopleTotally agree.
These few comments are the most valid and interesting I've seen on the TH-cam comments so far.
@@sauceroflivingpeople i also belive your environment also comes into play it can contribute alot to trauma
"nice person" is not the same as "good person." I learned that via dating.
Nice=sociopath/psychopath. Good=lost in translation aka not valuable in this society
This actually perfectly sums up the whole "nice guy" phenomenon. Niceness can be used as a facade to weasle your way past someones personal boundaries and cause mass havoc whereas being a good person is just genuinely decent on face-value for no reason other than it's the right thing to do without ulterior motives.
Damn sis okay I'll always keep this in mind.
Nobody asked
Stfu
Vice, this guy needs a 20 + min video or more. I listened to every word he said. Very interesting & wise man. These are the kind of interviews we want to seee
Tina.M. Yessssssss
Quality videos
I agree with you wholeheartedly on the kind of videos, but this man has been exposed as a complete fraud
@@kelligillum3230 what really? what was exposed about him??
Slip & Fall School alumni?
Honestly I'd love to see a whole documentary with this guy. He seems extremely knowledgeable.
Meganarb Yeah turns out they don't want any rookies winging it when trying to catch a killer lol
Same!
Me too.
It's called mindhunter on Netflix, loosely based off him
Arrow Field No it wasn't. Mindhunter was based on John Douglas, An american FBI profiler.
I'm sorry his dad abused him when he was younger, I'm glad he grew up and made something of himself.
J Wreck he did have a purtyyy face
He could have isolated himself questioned himself with pity and rage and became a serial killer himself. He took the high road. Excellent character
What if he he was like Dexter, and he really a super curry killer🍳
Unlike most people
@Osman Oglu it is saying sorry that that happened to you. It is meant to be a verbal sign of compassion for someone's experience. It is not apologizing for the person who hurt them but rather the situation. "I was blinded in a car accident." 'I am sorry that happened to you that is terrible."
I wanted them to ask him if he thought that anyone has the potential of becoming a serial killer. I'm curious about the nature-nurture aspect
Of course everyone does
I'm sure everyone has the potential, which is indeed a scary thing to acknowledge.
I read somewhere that everyone potentially has a motive no matter who they are
@Lord Humungus were you dropped on your head as an infant?
A good person to look into is Edmund kemper, the co-ed killer. Brilliant man, his IQ was that of a genius, committed horrible crimes, but listening to him speak in his interview is incredible and fascinating.
That prolonged look of horror after he says "I realized that only me could make me better". That mute gasp, like a part of him wants to talk about it but it's too horrible to be expressed. I've never seen anybody besides me do that.
I know right. That really resonated with me.
He mention the truth, but like he said not all people have that ability
I know it.
He realized no one can help you but yourself
45 minute videos on making bongs out of fruit or taking drugs and a 7 minute video on a serial killer profiler. Makes sense Vice.
Eikbyrnir Short and sweet. Much better.
Osman Oglu lol you dumfuck. The information is short and meaningful therefore the expression ''Short and Sweet'. Savvy?
This is the dumbest comment
Vice got bought out years ago. Its a distraction now
@flaaressence , Vice didn’t get bought, and distraction from what? I love when idiots makes comments.
to the editors: the volume of his voice is low
Turn up the volume then.
No,
He's just being calm.
They should add a bit more Treble, for his kind of voice.
My computer is on max volume and I can barely hear him.
If I was it would be the same way with other videos...
it's like he's looking for an answer from his dad in all of the serial killers he's interviewed. he has never healed. poor fellow.
You just made that up out of thin air haha, imagination is crazy. It's like you heard a therapist say something like that once, thought it was admirable and now you wanna do the same. I dont know man, dont wanna start some petty youtube beef here. I dont look down on you in anyway, I dont want to offend you either. I just thought it sounded sooo kliché that I had to say something. x) Have a nice day, Urban Joe ;D
Nemo Nym you have made your own observation as I have made mine. We’re only human. I just sensed anxiety in his story of childhood.
@@nemonym711 You 2000s babies really are a special kind of stupid.
@@AlchemicalForge91 - An excellent reply.
@@nemonym711 god damn chills bro and that is a quite reasonable things to theorize anyways, why you so offended?
Who else read "A Serial Killer...." instead of the "A Serial Killer Profiler"?
Me😂😅😬
OHHHHH I WAS HALF WAY THROUGH THE VIDEO AND I STILL THOUGHT HE WAS A SERIAL KILLEERRR
lmao same I was like "they really done it, didn't they" but then I read that again
Jella Faith me
Not me. You just cant read. Go back to elementary school and learn to read.
Vice has been putting up some really interesting videos of late.
@Hate Monger yeah, but i think that they are comming back t their old ways
@Hate Monger hopefully one day you'll be a Joy Monger, or a Fishmonger
Wesley O. Also is really pro of importing these people.
If John Wayne Gacy had the Internet, his Instagram would look like James Alefantis'
isnt this just an old video? i've seen this before... their new videos are mostly crap to be honest
Being abused is actually one of the "best" schools for people who work with criminals and abusers because you have been learning their language and behaviour pretty much since you remember existing.
Sounds harsh, but it's sooo true.
Very true
Tea
Living with a narcissist helps as well. You get to know all the ins and outs of their behaviors and see the reasons for their mistreatment and manipulation.
there’s no benefit in abuse whatsoever.
A man who freaked out Charlie Bronson? Scary.
odd wiki didnt mention it.
A man who is a fraud. Even faked his own death to get away from lawsuits. Google his name.
Serial Killer explains the mind of Serial Killer profilers
Wait what 😂😂
It'd probably be a tirade of madness
Somebody do this
Exactly ... Physiology is bullshido talk to a serial killer if you want to know what a serial killer thinks about.
What was talking about that he had so much of his own guilt?
I'd watch a movie on this guy's life.
Tv show, mind hunter
Kaila Towers not him
Yeah? He is a fraud. Google his name.
He is on the run. He made it all up.
@@miciboo9993 what
@@olive-gy2rt yes he fabricated lies
Wow. This was very interesting. I'm glad he didn't allow the abuse that he suffered from his father to internalize into hate.
“Allow”
How are you so sure that it’s a choice?
I suspect that he lacked the genetic aspects
He's just pretending. One day , he'll kills us all.
@@Noblebird02 i thing he knows that but it's mostly the bad parenting or environment that makes most serial killers lose control because they lack well discipline.
@@afonsodeportugal not me😇
There is an interesting story here - this guy has just been outed as a complete fake. Everything here is fake or copied from the work of others. His publisher has just withdrawn his book.
oh?
@@spoiltmilk6511 upon further review ... I think complete fake is too harsh. He told stories that hold up but he injected himself into them and that has not held up.
Thank you he was saying somethings that I don’t think are true
@@europhile2658 he isn’t a fraud per say but the truth was definitely stretched
This man has been exposed as fraud and he has admitted it. "Any claim that he conducted interviews of those serial killers is completely false,”
Vice doesn't take the video down though, damn site
Vice is an upgraded version of the onion
Where is your evidence? Or did he say this something that you felt triggered about. Could you be that E warrior soon to be serial killer?
Really? Where was it exposed? Will you provide a link?
Proof?
Plot twist: Paul is in fact a serial killer
Lol I thought when he came on the screen he was a serial killer they were interviewing 🤣
It takes a serial killer to recognize one.
he probably is but he supresses his urge to kill.
@@flavio9536 LOL no the fuck it does not. The guy has studied a number of serial killers.
@Stephen Bennett thank you for taking the time to type such an insightful post Stephen.
@Stephen Bennett thank you as well for doing what you can to prevent such acts.
Given his traumatic childhood and how he turned it into good in helping us understand pathological behavior, I consider him a hero.
Oh, and his holistic approach to a policy solution is brilliant.
totally agree
What be nice to killers?
Like gavin de becker. I feel like its a theme. As a child you have to become far more aware than other children to watch n prepare for triggers that could lead to your abuse, atune a skill most ppl never acknowledge & this theme is in alot of ppl who go after criminals bc they've become accustomed to the behaviors of ones in their family
Genuinely this man is a blessing
Don’t be nice to them.
Don’t be what often creates them either.
Every morning I say to myself "I could murder a bowl of cornflakes" - I'm a cereal killer.
What a shame more people couldn't appreciate you with likes😉
Straight out of a Christmas cracker that little belter hahahaha
found Varg Vikernes's secret account
I didn’t see the word “profiler” in the title and for a second I thought a serial killer would be in the video...
Anonymous [26490] sameee
It takes one to know one...
Yea same here
LOL same! im like oh this is about to be real interesting. which indeed it was.
What an interesting fella.
I agree
Lmao except that he never did one of those interviews and is a complete conman
my father did that too , locked me in bathroom all day long, locked me in dark storage room, and put cigars on my hand just so my skin burned and now hes wondering why in my 30 years of life i never have any jobs and antisocial and afraid of people lol he never did those to my older sister he only did those to me, my father is different person now hes okay as he geting older but maybe its just scarring me my whole life so even if my abuser changed im still abused inside
fellow victim of child abuse and neglect here, it scarred me for life and I will never be able to truly forgive what happened.
Wow dude I’m sorry to hear that. I know we don’t know each other but I truly hope one day you find the strength to prove him wrong and succeed in life. 💙wishing you all the best and sending some healing prayers your way.
Brent Tanner - wtf dude
@Brent Tanner Kek
He hasn't changed. He's just getting old and frail.
i love his approach to understanding the serial killers by using them as a resource to understand and apply to future cases
He actually lied about everything. He hasn't interviewed any serial killers. He's just a fraud. Shame.
True example of whatever doesn't kill you only makes you stronger this man suffered at the hands of his father to become a profiler sad but in way very inspiring
well, that generalization is not really apropos seeing how the subject matter is "abused kids turn into deranged serial killers"
I can't even imagine the level of dissociation required to commit such acts!
Because you have a soul! 😍
You guys should try get an interview with John Douglas. He literally wrote the book on serial killers and violent crime and coined the term "Serial Killer"
He lied about interviewing the serial killers. Was caught and even apologized.
Just Google his name.
Wouldn't have guessed it from this clip.
wow, I had no idea! thank you
Lmao I just checked it out
Same thing happened with a French guy, Stéphane Bourgoin, he went on talkshows and wrote books about his past trauma, his interviews of serial killers etc, turns out he lied about it.
Tbh this guy has very similar vibes to him, I thought about it while watching but this comment confirmed it!
www.google.com/amp/s/nypost.com/2019/07/16/true-crime-writer-accused-of-making-up-interviews-with-serial-killers/amp/
One source. One serial killer and seven fbi agents told, that he is lying. And harrison wrote on facebook im sorry, i let you down.
yeah, i thought it seemed a little weird when he started talking about serial killers breaking down and crying 😂
Please add subtitles for your Deaf audience! We would really appreciate it, TH-cam captions can often be nearly unintelligible. Especially for a company such as Vice, I would love to see more accessibility-minded uploads!
I feel like this guy has some dark secrets of his own...
don't we all?
@@rwyssy yes
ive killed alot of babies every month except november
Because it was dark in the cupboard?
@v- r-m AHHAAHAHHAHAHAHAHA
Had to watch this to make sure I wasn’t on the list
UGH IT'S JOE hey joe! hope you’re having a good day!
I'm onto you, you won't get away with anything.
It's always the friendly ones
Errrr
Not funny to joke about something like this bastard
Well this didn’t end well, according to many articles this man has lied about his career, he never interviewed those serial killers nor worked with them. He’s a Manipulator himself. He even apologised to his fans for manipulating and deceiving them.
Really ? This really sad
What ??
Paul Harrison “serial killer profiler” has his own demons that torment him on a regular basis. I thank the stars above that he uses those demons to try to do good, and didn’t ended up being a serial killer himself. So now we have good demons as well as bad demons? Now you see how confused I am!
@@vanessacappan8207 Yeah he never worked at the FBI ..the former FBI agents that Paul claimed to have worked with had no idea who he was ... 2 of them told the media that his claims of his interviews with serial killers are completely false ...
"Life was harsh with you, so be harsh with the others" that's the philosophy of severals killers like Manson, Fish, Tchikatilo...etc SAD WORLD 😔
His reasoning for going into profiling is exactly my reason as well. I always wanted to understand why my mother was so abusive and why I didn't turn out as a bad person..
Aw poor baby was so little still trying to figure out why his dad was so cruel to him ☹️ that actually made me sad. At least he made something out of it. Seems he’s had a great mind from a very young age 💚
I was abused too and could never get answers. It definitely made me obsessed with the mind and how it works. Most people hate killers and abusers. I hate their behavior but feel compassion for them. I think they're sick and need treatment. They do not know happiness. They only know misery and faking happiness.
“Only me can make me better...”
You’re a strong man, thank you for your wisdom 👏🏻
He’s a fucking fraud mate 😂
2:24 went from mister profile your killer to mister steal your girl in seconds
I was fortunate enough to attend a talk in Manchester that Paul was speaking at a few years ago and his story is fascinating. This video doesn’t even scratch the surface!
If you google him hes a fake and under arrest for fraud. He never interviewed anyone
@@50ulEat3r oh my god! Just googled him. Unbelievable! Thanks for letting me know.
@@tj428 no problem! Its really crazy how good of a liar he is
@@50ulEat3r ironically he's most probably one of those manipulators that he describes.
Suggest people google this guy.. I am surprised this is still up.
Wasnt he recently exposed for not actually having interviewed these people?
I put the 'hot' in psychotic yep! you can find many articles about it online
I put the 'hot' in psychotic yeah he was it’s ducked up honestly what a bad letdown
Huh? Fr?
What a fucking legend haha
He’s a manipulative psychopath himself
And yet he lied about all of his career, interviews, etc. Turns out when he was admiring Manson's level of manipulative skills he was trying to imitate them
You know someone is scary when they creep out Charles Bronson.
I wish this was a full length documentary. He explains things really well.
This guy fits perfectly in his picture of what a serial killer looks like. He was abused as a child, yet hes Empathic, knowledgable, well informed and... he knows where every other serial killer fails
This was great. More of this content plz.
I read the title as Serial Killer Prolifer and was SO confused at first 😂😂😂
Serial Killers probably could be pro-life because that's more people to be born that they could then kill🤔
@@autumnrose538 but a serial killer could probably be pro-choice because they like killing things 🤔
@@jchen1023 Well abortionist, serial killer, same dif I guess.
This is tje best video you have got so far. Why so short????
He's actually lying about being serial killer profiler just search him on google and you can see that he didn't do any of these things.
What a fascinating and interesting man. One of the best interviews ever made 👍 well done to Paul and VICE
Quite fascinating!
There's also an Ultimate to serial killer fandom. Partially through media, both fiction, and the news, or true crime documentaries like this one. You have Agatha Christie, and then you have The Silence of the Lambs. Christie's stories were mostly about the Upper Class, near royalty if not actual nobility in England. So, people read them partially for the scandal. Who was sleeping with whom, as well as whodunnit, but the cliche' about "The butler did it" points to the class of the people she wrote about. If a porter killed a waiter on The Orient Express, then nobody would care about it. There is the Escalation, and later in life, Christie escalated to at least 1 Serial killer tale. After she resorted to "Everyone did it" (Except for the servants, who weren't significant to the tale) she wrote the Pale Horse, and i won't spoil the ending, but it was basically a Serial killer. One man killing several people, serially instead of Witches. Then, we have Hannibal Lechter, who's refined, a gourmand, and a psychiatrist. He also had 6 fingers on each hand, and violet spokes in his eyes that seemed to rotate hypnotically when Starling looked into them... It's larger than life, the same reason why we're fascinated by supervillians (And elect them to public office.) Because serial killers are our supervillains, so those that catch them must be that good, to have caught them. Because we don't fight dragons to rescue princesses any more, we have Serial Killers, some of whom may pretend to be possessed by a Dragon.
Bro you just saved my philosophy exam thank u 💀
Could listen to his stories all day ... we need more of this content.
Best explanation of a serial killer that I ever heard.
Make more of these
Seems like a top bloke.
Please do a more extensive interviews on this man!!! His answers were so insightful and intriguing. I think I speak for all of us when we want more of his intense experience interviewing serial killers.
The way he handled the subject is so admirable and human. I deeply appreciate his honesty with his own trauma as well
HE LITTERALY LIED LOOK IT UP LMAO. He didn’t meet any of these serial killers he frabricated these stories
How to treat a serial killer according to a serial killer.
Ghostus Coyote no he’s just a serial killer profiler
David Wendell nah I think that was his suggestion for another vid
Or maybe a mockery of the other less interesting series? (Imo.. Don't @ me)
@@David-su8gp He actually wasn’t a profiler. He lied about all of it.
I'm very very very proud of him and I'm really sorry for the abuse he face when he was a child. He was indeed a very strong person to report his own father, came out of the abuse and strive for the betterment. I wish that I can give him a hug :(
Vice needs to put videos up like this more often, very interesting stuff.
Wish this had been longer. Very interesting.
Vice is back baaaby!
Lol I read the title as 'Serial Killer Explains The Minds of Murderers' and instantly clicked on it lol😂
Same!
Vice keeps it real when they do interviews and I respect that
the comment about how hes realized how only he can make himself better is gold.
This is amazing that he took is abuse and wanted to look into the abusers and actually help victims. Very very good man
Yeah these are NOT the 10 question I would wanna ask
More like this. That was fascinating, brilliant guy.
I’m sorry you suffered as a child however this has helped you save many more xxx big hugs xxx
Our society’s refusal to deal with our own dark sides causes immense damage.
if you google this guy you'll find an article from the guardian that disputes his claims to have interviewed famous serial killers. He's just a liar. Kind of amazed vice still has this video up.
This was powerful. This man is amazing. Thank you for your work.
He seems like a kind man.
“Only me can make me better, and there’s a lot of people who can’t do that, so those are the people that we need to help”
💯
I hope this guy has a loving family ❤️ and that he loves his job.
I feel like childhood trauma and repeated trauma into adulthood either creates a force of great good, or a force of great evil. It either creates sadness, or an unquenchable rage.
Finally gotta something about Serial Killers!!!!!! thank you Vice! Thank you~~~
Something I find funny is that some serial killers actually fear experiencing pain and death; even though they gleefully inflict it upon others.
Everybody is human.. regardless
"Why are you being so cold & heartless?" Projection at his finenest 👌
Except didn’t actually happen 🤭
This is a great understanding of a person.
Wow this is an amazing way to turn tragedy into triumph
Video about serial killers has Manson on the thumbnail who never killed a single person himself.
DirtyDinner24. Manson was a sociopath,he had the ability to make others do stuff that they wouldn't do on their own.that is why authorities locked him up for life.
dan cly I’m not defending him I’m just saying by definition he is not a serial killer and therefore should not be on the thumbnail of this video about this subject
Very true, just a cult leader.
*he still ordered others to, so he's a serial killer by proxy*
If someone told you to murder someone and you were dumb enough to listen I don't think the person should get death row. I'm a divorcee of a man with ASPD he managed to manipulate me but nothing he said would have made kill a person.
Is that Werner from Better Call Saul?
Wow Vice is not vetting there sources and leaving up old inaccurate stories like this one, way to go Vice!!!!!!!
Went to one of Paul's talks. Would recommend it to anyone. Very nice and interesting guy.
The Pennywise music in the background gives me the goosebumps.
I just learned that this guy confessed he is a fake and he did not interview serial killers.

*BREAKING NEWS: Cereal killer guilty of pouring milk before adding the cornflakes.*

Maniac!
Reminds me of the guy from Sherlock who called himself a cereal killer
Anyone who eats cornflakes is def a serial killer.
Manson shouldn’t be in the thumbnail
Exactly, never killed anyone nor ordered anyone to do so..,
He’s very passionate about his career, that’s really awesome to achieve.
HUGE respect for this guy
Me after a day of binge watching videos about Ted Bundy
He is not a "serial killer expert" he made all of this stuff up he never met none of these "serial murderers".. it terrifying how many of you believed him and didn't even search for evidence.. You must think for yourself.
he seems like such a nice person awh
People need to realize that having been abused doesn't create abusers or serial killers. Most survivors don't repeat the cycle but suffer instead. Unfortunately some people do become twisted and decide to inflict suffering on others. It's tragic but it's good that we learn about the violent outliers, and how to prevent these murders, brave guy.
