BY CHRISTOPHER CALE

A 4-year-old video of a member of the Buzzfit gyms getting assaulted in Montreal resurfaces online.

19-year-old Charles-Antoine Lalonde was a Buzzfit gym member in Montreal. On Aug 2, 2018, Charles-Antoine was recording himself deadlifting when another gym member approached him silently while looking visibly upset, kicked the barbell out of his hands and shoved him against the wall while yelling, "get out." The man was upset about the amount of sound Charles-Antoine was making while deadlifting.

The member and staff working during that shift were suspended and banned from Buzzfit.

The incident video is still on Charles-Antoine's YouTube channel, receiving over 11 million views.
