Hulk Hogan Contemplated Suicide After Video Leak [Video]

Last month a video of world wresting champion Hulk Hogan making racial slurs was released to the public, and Hogan faced a lot of criticism and racist allegations as a result.

Recently, Hogan sat down with ABC News' Amy Robach on Good Morning America and said he contemplated suicide after the video was leaked of him ranting off about his daughter's African-American boyfriend .

"I was to the point where I wanted to kill myself, you know?" Hogan said, "I was completely broken and destroyed and said, 'What's the easiest way out of this?' I mean, I was lost."

During the interview, emotional Hogan talked about his reasoning for using the n-word, and he denied being a racist. He also begged his fans for forgiveness.
