Kick streamer Kangjoel gets kicked out of Mizkif's gym for allegedly inappropriately filming a female gym member

A Kick streamer named Kangjoel (47.7K followers) found himself facing scrutiny over a rather questionable action during his visit to the Iron Forge Gym. Those unaware of the gym, it was co-created by popular Twitch streamer and OTK (One True King) member Matthew "Mizkif" and Norwegian Twitch streamer Knut Spildrejorde. The gym is located in Round Rock, Texas.

Since the Iron Forge Gym is created by streamers, it is open to people who want to stream there. The Kick streamer decided to host an IRL stream there; however, he was kicked out due to what appeared to be a seemingly inappropriate action against another female member working out there.

Kick streamers are often accused of creating controversial content online, with Kangjoel being in limelight this time. He visited Mizkif and Knut's Iron Forge Gym but ended up filming a woman from behind.

The woman in question was preparing to perform barbell squats, unaware she was being filmed from behind. The streamer proceeded to get close to her and then turned the camera on himself, making a suggestive facial expression. This violates the code of conduct within the gym premises and can also be seen a breach of privacy.

This inappropriate action was likely noticed by Knut, as the Kick streamer had several viewers during his IRL stream. Moments later, he was confronted by the gym's co-owner, who asked him to leave, stating:

"Joel, sorry, but you have to leave. You can't do that. Filming people showing their a**es, I'm sorry but (you have to leave)...I gave you a chance, you broke it."

Knut added that he received several messages about the situation and said that had the streamer not filmed the woman from behind, he would have been allowed to work out:

"If you didn't do that, you would've been fine."

Kick streamers have faced criticism for some of their antics several times. For instance, during the recently concluded TwitchCon 2024 in San Diego, several allegations surfaced, accusing streamers from the Stake.com platform of harassing other attendees. One viral instance involved Rangesh "N3on," who was seen misgendering a queer streamer who had visited the event.
