David Dobrik and Jeff Wittek were once thick as thieves, regularly appearing in David\u2019s vlogs together alongside Wittek\u2019s independent \u2018Barber Shop\u2019 interview series. However, amid the backlash against Dobrik several months ago (which included allegations from former Vlog Squad members claiming that David had put them in precarious situations for his videos), Wittek claimed that he\u2019d almost lost an eye due to one of David\u2019s crazy stunts. In particular, Dobrik and crew had attached a rope to an excavator in the middle of a lake, from which they swung a few of their buddies, including Wittek. TW: I\u2019ve never felt so angry at a dumb ass influencer before. David Dobrik needs to be stopped. He\u2019s always been irresponsible at his friends expense for YOUTUBE videos. He COULD have been charged with manslaughter had Jeff been inches closer to the excavator. IM LIVIDDDDD pic.twitter.com\/eT2wEde46k \u2014 Mauve \ud83d\udcad (@katmauvearts) April 22, 2021 During the stunt, David began swinging the excavator around quite fast, resulting in Wittek\u2019s eye becoming injured \u2014 so much so that a doctor claimed the situation \u201cwould have cut your eye right in half\u201d had the wound been any higher. After the fallout between Wittek and Dobrik \u2014 during which Wittek claimed he would not press charges \u2014 the YouTubers vs TikTokers boxing event took place, effectively giving every influencer in Los Angeles the boxing bug. It seems that David Dobrik has also caught this fighting fever, as evidenced by an interview he gave shortly after his YouTube return. In the interview, Dobrik was asked who he would call out for a potential fight \u2014 and his choice was none other than Wittek. (Topic starts at 1:20) \u201cThis is a lot of pressure, because I know if I say it, I have to go through with it,\u201d Dobrik joked before someone shouted out Jeff\u2019s name. \u201cJeff Wittek, I\u2019ll see you in the ring!\u201d he laughed. It seems Wittek was more than happy to accept Dobrik\u2019s request (joking or not), writing in his own video, \u201c100k likes and I\u2019ll smash David\u2019s skull.\u201d (Topic begins at 7:50) While things appear to have smoothened out between these two YouTubers, fans are certainly keen to see them face off considering their history, making for yet another highly-anticipated match amidst SteveWillDoIt vs Vitaly and even RiceGum vs iDubbz being discussed as potential bouts.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Jeff Wittek responds to David Dobrik\u2019s boxing challenge after vlogging comeback YouTube: Jeff Wittek, Kevin WongYouTube star David Dobrik has finally made his grand return to vlogging \u2014 and it looks like he\u2019s already got a boxing match lined up after the explosive drama with his friend, Jeff Wittek.
