It's a relatively common practice. Oysters especially.

The guy complaining about how common it is doesn't seem to live in any of those regions though. Most seafood is not consumed live, even in those places. It's weird that that's the major complaint with seafood.
Many people go their entire seafood eating lives while never eating from a live creature.
