Jeff Wittek has made no bones about his feelings regarding YouTube star David Dobrik over the past few days. Wittek \u2014 who was once part of Dobriks\u2019 friend group, the Vlog Squad \u2014 recently pulled out of an event due to Dobrik being involved, notably calling the YouTuber a \u201cscumbag.\u201d The drama between Wittek and Dobrik sparked after Wittek was injured during a stunt in 2021, in which Dobrik manned a crane that Wittek was strapped to. Wittek\u2019s eye was badly damaged, requiring multiple surgeries. Since then, tensions between him and Dobrik have been riding high \u2014 and it seems as though sentiments between Wittek\u2019s friends and Ethan Klein are in a similar state. Wittek was scheduled to appear in an episode of the H3H3 podcast to discuss his drama with Dobrik. However, Klein ultimately ended up canceling the interview after he claimed a friend of Wittek harassed him and his wife on two separate occasions. \u201cJeff\u2019s not coming on the show for good reason,\u201d Klein explained. \u201cI\u2019ll just say it \u2013 Jeff\u2019s friend, the guy I was making fun of, he came into our f**king gated community and was filming, driving by our house and saying, \u2018I have all the info you need Ethan, don\u2019t test me!\u2019 Like threatening me and my family in front of our house.\u201d Klein claimed that he had to phone the authorities to take care of the situation and tightened security at the front gate of his neighborhood. \u201cThat was a horrible experience,\u201d he added. \u201cThey think it\u2019s funny, I guess, to drive by my house and intimidate me.\u201d (Topic begins at 16:20) Klein went on to clarify that, although he doesn\u2019t believe Wittek had anything to do with the incident, he was canceling the interview due to the company he keeps. This news comes in wake of Casey Neistat\u2019s upcoming documentary covering David Dobrik\u2019s controversies, set to premiere at SXSW in March.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Ethan Klein claims friend of Jeff Wittek \u201cthreatened\u201d him and wife Hila before interview YouTube: H3 PodcastYouTuber and podcast host Ethan Klein claims a friend of fellow influencer Jeff Wittek harassed him and his wife, Hila, before Wittek\u2019s scheduled interview on their show.
