These videos often feature fictional characters from family-oriented media, sometimes via crossovers, used without legal permission. Most videos under this classification are notable for presenting content including graphic violence, sexual situations, fetishes, obscene language, drugs, alcohol, nudity, injections, disease, off-color humor, dangerous or upsetting situations and activities. Examples of the situations featured in such videos can be seen above, such as injections, mutilation, childbirth, urination, fellatio, and chemical burning.Įlsagate is a neologism referring to the controversy surrounding videos on YouTube and YouTube Kids that are categorized as "child-friendly", but which contain themes that are deemed inappropriate for young children. Thumbnails of Elsagate content are often represented by recognizable, family-friendly characters performing child-inappropriate or otherwise disturbing actions, either through explicit depiction or implication.
