People would seek him out to make videos or even to use him for money or drugs, its all very sad. Its hard to separate him being gay and black from himactually touching kids it was more he had a paraphilia for muscles in men not necessarily boys he had mental health problems and was a victim as well as an offender. He wasnt a rapist he just had weird tastes in men. White straight people who never saw him in real life csnt spesk about him cos we dont really know the facts, i know loads of kids would punch and beat him on hearsay/homophobia/racism grounds alone it's scary how much he was made into a boogyman by white scally kids ans their parents even using aki to get them to come back home on time, therefore those stories from parents terrified kids so ppl would see any black fella and run off terriefied. Its whole storys really sad its not right at all akis story its sad and tragic all round. I dont condone any abse of kids ive been abused myself. Theres so much gossip that isnt true. I knew a young gay lad i went to garlands with and aki was round at his doing beak and shagging but with consent and god the lad used him for drugs and money it was weird i wasnt into it id just leave

Aki actually felt up my arm, back in the '90s, when I was 16. He walked up behind me and started feeling my arm. When I turned around, he said something like, "Don't worry, I won't bite!" He then started asking if I went to a gym. Luckily I'd never lifted a weight in my life, and I think he was disappointed with what he felt, so he walked off. Though I had heard of him from as early as 9-years-old, I didn't realise it was him, when he was feeling me. A few years later, however, saw him in the local paper, and read about his muscle-feeling, and realised I'd been in his presence.

He died a couple of years ago and he was mentioned in the local paper. When his bike was stolen some local hoodlums got together to get it back, vowing to beat up the theif and when they could’t find it, they ”bought” Him a new one.

When the show host introduced him and asked why he called himself “Purple”, he answered, inexplicably, “It’s the only color I can spell”. At this point we laughed so hard that I don’t remember much about the rest of the night- we may have actually passed out from hysterical laughter.

Yeah I've not been as into Dankula's videos as of recently. Feels to artificial and sounds too much like he's reading from a script his writing teams given him. I prefer when he didn't have a writing team to begin with tbh, his video on zhang xong chang is a personal favourite of mine as it felt authentic through and through and just like he was recounting one of his favourite stories of a historical mad lad off the top of his head.

I’m from in Allerton, South Liverpool, born in 1983. I remember in school people genuinely being scared of going into the childwall woods, black woods or Halewood Park on their own in case Purple Aki would get them. That fear was very real. Kids used to come up to others on the playground and grab their arms and say “let me feel your muscles…” for years, genuinely, I thought that he might be just an urban legend until someone showed me the news articles in the early 2000s when we got the internet.

This shows so much about the UK 1. The lack of mental health services 2. The lack of stalking laws because women genuinely had a lack of rights until the 80s, just look at the marriage grape law. 3. The fear of being considered racist and how's that abused. 4. How people in poorer areas are often considered less than and therefore what happens in those areas doesn't matter in the eyes of the law. 5. The double standard in the eyes or the law and public, if that was a bloke doing that to girls, he'd have been ended... Unless he doesn't eat certain meats

Aki often used to come down New Brighton to the arcades. One day he asked me if there was anybody that I wanted him to beat up. I told him 'no' and that mostly everyone on Victoria Road were friends of mine. He didn't squeeze my muscles (not that I had any) but he did give me two pound when I asked if he had any slummy.

I remember one lad from school got stalked by him. Everyone used to sing "he got chased by purple aki. Aki ragged his @rse and ripped his tracky". Funny until we found out he was real.
