- [Bahityar] He tweeted, my account was taken down
for 11 minutes by a rogue employee.
- [Female Crew member] He didn't tweet that did he?
Oh, yeah.
- Bahityar, how you doing man?
- How are you doing Tito?
I'm doing great.
Since I'm in Germany
I feel much better.
I miss the food here.
- Yeah?
Alright, let's kick it off alright?
So, November 2nd was a pretty big day right?
- Yeah, for some people maybe.
- It was your last day of work?
- Yeah it was my last day of work yeah.
- Where did you work?
- Physically I was in the headquarters of Twitter
in San Francisco.
- Twitter has said that an employee
deactivated Donald Trump's account right?
- Yeah.
- And like, that's public.
We don't know who that employee is.
Is it you?
- My opinion, it was definitely a mistake
and if I am involved in this I really apologize
if I hurt anyone so I didn't do anything on purpose.
But as I said, I had a wild time in America
and I was tired sometimes and
everyone can do mistakes.
So it might be that I did a mistake.
But of course not only one little mistake,
of one human being can lead to such a result.
I think it's all about a number of coincidences.
- What kind of coincidences?
- Like, very, very little probabilities
so which randomly occurred on my last day of work.
I didn't hack anyone.
I didn't do anything which I wasn't authorized to do.
I didn't go to any site or tool
where I wasn't supposed to be at.
I didn't do any crime and I underline it
that I comply with all rules and that I didn't,
I underline that I didn't break any rules.
- [CNN Host] President Trump's Twitter account went down.
- For 11 minutes.
- [Female Reporter] Silenced by a Twitter employee
gone rogue.
- The most watched Twitter account goes down yesterday.
- [Bahityar] This is why it has hit the headline,
because he's a controversial and maybe the most popular
person in the world and so, so and obviously
successful people have a lot of,
there are millions of people who do not like them.
So there are millions of people who would
take actions against him if they had the possibility.
In my case, it was just random.
Let's say unlucky or lucky victim
who's being put, who finds himself in this situation
where millions of Americans want, would like to be at.
Like, yeah.
- So, Twitter never officially published your name.
Nobody has published your name.
Why then decide to go public?
- I just want to continue ordinary life.
I don't want to flee from the media.
I wanna speak to my neighbors,
I wanna speak to my friends,
I had to delete hundreds of friends
because reporters are stalking me.
They add my friends on Facebook.
I had to delete so many pictures.
And I just wanna continue ordinary life.
- [Tito] How do you feel about the reactions out there?
- [Bahityar] Which one?
- People are like, oh man
I wanna buy this guy a couple of pizzas.
Because he finally gave us some peace and quiet.
- They are hailing this person as a national hero
or what else, they wanna nominate him for a Nobel prize
and this kind of things.
And these are just comments and
as I said, I find myself in a number of coincidences.
So for me it's just a coincidence
and that's it.
- But would you accept the Nobel Peace Prize
if it came up?
- I think it should be accepted by the one who deserved it.
I'm sure that I do not deserve...
I don't deserve to be nominated for the Nobel Peace Prize.
