Mizkif proposes new idea to Hafpor Julius Bjornsson
During the August 14, 2022 broadcast, Twitch streamer Knut picked up the Icelandic personality at the airport, with 30,000 live viewers witnessing the moment. Hafþór Björnsson then walked into the gym where Mizkif and other prominent Camp Knut members and streamers were eagerly waiting for him.
Introducing "The Mountain" to all the live Twitch viewers, Knut remarked:
"There are 31,000 people watching for your arrival! Yeah, here! Here's the chat."
It all started back on August 7, 2022, when OTK co-founder and Twitch star Matthew "Mizkif" surprised his viewers by getting on a call with the Game of Thrones strongman. The duo likely worked behind the scenes to bring Thor on their fitness journey to coach other streamers.
As viewers can already imagine, the group was amazed at Thor's incredible power and skill.
However, he, in turn, was amazed by the team's progress in such a short span of time and how massive and well-toned their physique had become.
That wasn't it, though; the success of the livestream and appreciation from viewers sparked a rather interesting idea for Mizkif, who proposed to host Camp Thor with the strongman in the near future.
Upon being asked what would the plan was after Camp Knut, Mizkif responded by saying:
"Imagine if we did Camp Thor.... Look I wanted to go on the other side of the gym before we said this. If you wanted to do Camp Thor, I would go. I would travel to Iceland for 30 days in the winter and just eat boars and live. If you wanted me to do that the camera will F the entire time, but I'll do it."
At the time of writing, neither Matthew nor Hafþór Júlíus Björnsson has officially confirmed anything regarding a Camp Thor venture; however, given the Twitch streamer's enthusiasm for fitness, it's certainly a possibility.
