O.J. Simpson's Shocking Ruby Wax Prank: Resurfaced Video

Is it ever truly possible to separate the art from the artist, the action from the actor, especially when that actor is someone as deeply controversial as O.J. Simpson? The resurfacing of a bizarre video showing Simpson playfully, yet disturbingly, "attacking" comedian Ruby Wax with a banana has ignited a fresh wave of debate surrounding his legacy, particularly in light of his recent passing.

The clip, dredged up from the archives, captures a moment of unsettling levity between Simpson and Wax during the filming of a documentary for BBC One. In the video, Simpson, with a grin plastered across his face, opens his hotel room door and mimics a stabbing motion towards Wax using a banana as a makeshift weapon. He even amplifies the disturbing scene by mimicking the sound of stabbing. The interaction, intended perhaps as a prank, has been branded "horrifying" and "sick" by many online viewers, especially considering Simpson's history and the shadow it casts on any attempt at humor.
