Dan Bilzerian\u2019s Ignite Twitch stream banned after half-naked model attempts $30,000 treadmill challenge Twitch: IgniteThe Twitch account of Dan Bilzerian\u2019s cannabis-selling company, Ignite, appears to have been suspended following a stream where a number of Instagram models took on an almost impossible challenge wearing Ignite merchandise for the chance of winning up to $30,000. Dan Bilzerian, who has labelled himself as the \u2018King of Instagram\u2019 in the past, grew to fame when he started uploading pictures to his account showing off the lavish lifestyle he enjoys. The multi-millionaire, who claims that he made his money playing in poker tournaments, regularly uploads pictures of himself driving fast cars, hanging out with models in bikinis, and more recently has been promoting Ignite, his new business venture which sells marijuana and CBD products from an online store, and a number of dispensaries in the California area. To help promote the brand, Dan Bilzerian has labelled his California mansion as the \u2018Ignite House\u2019, where the Ignite Girls \u2013 a number of popular Instagram models \u2013 hang out, with Bilzerian himself regularly live streaming what\u2019s going on at the house. On his Monday, May 6 \u201cworkout\u201d Twitch stream, the American announced a new challenge that the Ignite Girls would be taking part in, with Bilzerian offering cash to anyone who could complete a one mile run on a treadmill in under five minutes. First to attempt the challenge was Kinsey Sue, who had been taking part in the workout stream. When Bilzerian offered her an incredible $30,000 reward if she was able to perform the sub-five minute mile, Sue changed out of her fitness gear and into an Ignite-branded bikini, before unsuccessfully taking on the challenge. Alex Abbate was then challenged to perform the same task, with Bilzerian promising $5,000 if she was able to succeed. Again wearing an Ignite-brand bikini, the camera operator panned around a clearly-struggling Abbate, commenting that he was \u201cgetting a better angle.\u201d As many on Reddit have noted, the challenge is nearly impossible to complete by an average person, with the fastest mile ran by a woman standing at 4:12 back in 1996 \u2013 a record which has been unchallenged ever since. Why was Bilzerian\u2019s Ignite Twitch account banned? While neither Bilzerian or Ignite have commented on why their Twitch channel has been suspended, users on Reddit believe that they have been punished for breaking the website\u2019s rules on sexually suggestive or explicit content. With the women appearing in tiny bikinis to complete the challenge, it\u2019s possible that Twitch decided to shut down the page temporarily, as this kind of content is against the company\u2019s Terms of Service. Due to the channel and the clips associated with this stream being unavailable due to the suspension, it\u2019s impossible to verify if any other rules were broken throughout the duration of the broadcast. Neither Twitch nor Bilzerian have revealed how long the account will be suspended for, but it\u2019s likely that they will face at least a seven day ban for breaking the site\u2019s rules, meaning the earliest they will be back is probably Tuesday, May 14.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
