According to what I remember, the story of this video is that the son was having problems with his dad. The dad then goes to the son and puts a gun right in front of him as if to say "If you're really tired of this life then kill yourself". The son takes the gun and actually shoots himself in the head. In the video, you can see the very interesting reaction of the dad and a woman who seems to be the mom. The father immediately smacks the son's head as if to reprimand him, causing the son to fall to the ground. He checks on his son and immediately realizes that his son took his suicide challenge and is already dead. The mother tries to get out of her chair but falls to the ground and flops around like a fish, while the father also falls to the ground and starts doing leg lifts in what seems to be an expression of regret. The mom quickly regains her composure and takes the gun away.

Their reactions are really weird. Different culture, I guess. The guy slapping the kid on the head...? Then doing leg lifts. The woman collapsing, I guess I can understand.

I think this is wrong. From what I've heard the dad likely said something along the lines of "You might as well shoot me!" Hence him lifting his shirt and turning his back on his son. He likely assumed the son had fired a warning shot at him out of anger hence the dad turning around and smacking the son before realizing the son had killed himself.

Happened in Thailand. Remembered read the news when this was posted on Reddit wpd.

Dad was a cop. Son had a depression. Dad said something like what you said.

Son did shot himself. Dad and mom were in shock and displayed a coordinate dance.

The shirt lifting is kinda normal here. I guess it was hot?

Saw many people did it and it was not a gang or thug move.

According to the news, the father didn't tell his son to commit suicide.

He urged his son to shoot him. That's why he lifted his shirt, it's a form of body language saying "shoot me here"
