Kanye West & Rihanna's New Video Causes Seizures

Kanye West's music video for his latest single 'All Of The Lights', which features Rihanna and Hype Williams, will be banned from TV stations in Britain and is shown with a disclaimer on YouTube. What's behind all of the fuss? The dizzing display of lights in the video could cause seizures.

UK-based organisation Epilepsy Action had Kanye West's video analysed and the results showed that the rate at which the lights flash could trigger seizures in people who have photosensitive epilepsy. The organization is on a campaign to have the video removed from circulation.

“We are in the process of trying to contact Kanye West’s agent, YouTube and other online sources of the video to ask that they take it down. We have also contacted MTV and other TV stations to make them aware of the issue," Epilepsy Action stated.

Check out the video in the centre of the controversy below (if you don't suffer from epilepsy).
