I don't think that filming it is all that bad. After all, you want to document whatever you can. What is disturbing to me is posting the video on social media. I get that everyone grieves in their own way, but how can posting the video to social media be anything but attention seeking? Maybe that and grieving are one in the same for this person? I feel bad for the guy but sharing the video to all the world seems inappropriate considering the circumstances.

What if it was posted to social media for family and friends to view that weren't able to visit the hospital? It may be that family couldn't be there at the hospital with him and he wanted them to be a part of this time. He may not have intended for the video to go viral. In fact, I seriously doubt he did.
