Video of Twitch CEO apparently 'slamming a woman' at TwitchCon resurfaces

A resurfaced clip involving Twitch CEO Dan Clancy has gone viral, in which he appears to accidentally slam a woman on stage during TwitchCon. While many people seem to assume the video is from 2025, which has already been full of controversy, the sequence is actually more than a year old.

The incident reportedly took place in 2024 and is now widely shared on social media, with many viewers criticizing the platform's leadership and security protocols.

Asmongold calls out Twitch after Emiru incident over security concerns at TwitchCon

In a post by @KickClipsLive on X, Asmongold watched a clip of some viewers walking freely through the TwitchCon 2025 security without proper controls, despite Twitch's official statement saying security had been significantly improved following Emiru's alleged assault.

Reacting to the clip, someone in the chat asked him if he had contacted Emiru. He confirmed yes, but chose not to speak about it live. He added:

“This is a huge invasion of her privacy. This event is happening, she even has to talk about it, Twitch is lying about it. They lied in their statement about it.”

According to Twitch's statement, the person involved in the situation in Emiru has been banned indefinitely from the platform and all future events. Additionally, security at encounter check-in points has been increased.

Fans react to resurfaced clip of Twitch CEO Dan Clancy

The viral video of Dan Clancy has many reactions, and many users seem unaware that the clip is old and taken out of context. As previously mentioned, the clip is from 2024, where he attempted a light jump similar to the one performed the previous year, but the move went wrong and the woman involved in the act accidentally fell.

“I don’t know how Clancy still has a job at this point.” @TheCurtismMKII reacted to the clip

“Twitch never recovers from this year's TwitchCon. When will this congressional hearing take place? lol” @NickProbes commented without context

“TwitchCon seems to be on fire this year, that's for sure. Two incidents in two days. I'd say he dropped the mic but…” @GaidenHeroX joked

“That’s NOT how you dress a girl.” @meowrketing commented disappointingly

“If I said what I wanted to say about this man, I would probably get a visit from the local sheriff.” @Spartacus15392 said

With the ongoing Emiru controversy and growing backlash towards Twitch's handling of security, this resurfacing clip only adds to the platform's PR woes.
