A Dutch fitness influencer who recently converted to Islam stabbed three people outside Amsterdam Centraal on Saturday evening, livestreaming the attack to his thousands of TikTok followers.
The violence erupted at around 7.30pm on De Ruijterkade, on the IJ side of the station. Footage from the TikTok account ‘Superhuman Unchained’ shows the streamer shadowboxing before becoming embroiled in an argument with a group of six or seven men. He repeatedly tells them not to touch him, says he is ‘not afraid of six, seven men’, and warns that ‘they are all going to fall’.
As the confrontation escalates, he says ‘alcohol does this’ and approaches the group wielding a knife as fighting breaks out. The livestream shows one man falling to the ground, after which the streamer can be seen making a stabbing motion towards him before the broadcast cuts out. Three men were stabbed in the bizarre incident.
The TikTokker has been identified by Dutch media as Angelo Bryson, a personal trainer active online under the ‘Superhuman Unchained’ brand. Bryson’s public profiles largely revolve around extreme fitness, boxing drills and endurance challenges. Basic-Fit has listed him as a personal trainer in Amsterdam, while his own website describes him as an influencer, entrepreneur and motivator promoting ‘discipline above motivation’.
His online presence had also increasingly featured Islam, Palestine and North African politics. Dutch outlet GeenStijl reports that Bryson converted to Islam and regularly participated in pro-Palestinian demonstrations, while circulating footage shows him receiving a Quran during a recent trip to Morocco.
Bryson had travelled south through Spain towards Morocco as part of one of his endurance projects. His website describes the Almería-to-Morocco journey as a demonstration of perseverance and mental strength. GeenStijl also reports that Bryson argued that Ceuta, the Spanish enclave on the North African coast that was stormed by more than 80,000 illegal migrants from Morocco in July, belongs to Morocco.
