A newly-discovered video shows YouTube star Jesse Ridgway performing a disgusting impression of a person with Down syndrome.
The video comes as he and his wife face intense criticism for aborting their baby just because he or she may have had Down syndrome.
According to TMZ, the nearly nine-year-old video showing Ridgway performing a mocking impression of a person with Down syndrome has resurfaced as he and his wife defend their decision to abort their unborn baby.
In the clip from Ridgway’s “The Devil Inside” series, his character snaps and takes on different personalities. Near the end of the 45-minute video, Ridgway is forced to snap at gunpoint and assumes the personality of someone with Down syndrome.
He employs a stereotypical voice and adds mannerisms often used by people mocking those with special needs.
The impression lasts about a minute before the character crashes through a mirror and regains his original personality.
Ridgway specifically says he has Down syndrome in the video during the scene.
Ridgway defended the portrayal as part of the scripted series.
“I play a character name Isaac Kalder who has hijacked Jesse Ridgway’s life. My family is pissed so they hold me at gunpoint and force me to switch chars rapidly. The identity switches happen too fast and it fries my brain,” he said.
He defended his portrayal as art, not a mockery.
The resurfaced clip comes amid intense backlash after Ridgway and his wife, Ashley, announced they had aborted their unborn baby following the prenatal diagnosis.
In a follow-up interview today, the 33-year-old creator of the McJuggerNuggets YouTube channel — which has 4.34 million subscribers — described the couple weighing the realities of raising a child with the condition.

Part of me says to pray for him. Part of me wants him to crawl back in the sewer he came out of.

My stepmother always said “it will come home to you someday” when ever we did something bad.
She was correct about that. This came home to him. He murdered the child but it still came home to him.
I know that feeling.
When he stands in front of God for his judgement and God calls that child forward to meet the man who would have been his/her dad, it will not be a happy reunion.
YouTube star Jesse Ridgway …Unlikely to be a Youtube star, even with his 4.34 million alleged subscribers (who could be fake subscriptions). This is the first I ever heard of this person, either under his real name or his infantile-sounding pseudonym “McJuggerNuggets”.
I read up on him. He’s been around a while. Few years ago he had some gimmick but it has since got old and tired. He no longer does it anymore.
I guess he was going to be a family blogger until that got aborted.
i wonder how Trig is doing?
i am betting he is having a wonderful life
