From the comments at YouTube:
“This vlog was recorded on January 18th by Asma Mahfouz, the girl who started it all. She had shared it on her Facebook, and it had gone viral. It was so powerful and so popular, that it drove Egyptians by the thousands into Tahrir Square, and drove the Egyptian government to block Facebook [...] Translated by Iyad El-Baghdadi, subbed by Ammara Alavi.”
